this is for all you sophisticated ladies out there
she grew up in the city in a little subdivision
her daddy wore a tie mama never fried a chicken
ballet straightas most likely to succeed
they bought her a car after graduation
sent her down south for some higher education
put her on the fast track to a law degree
now she’s coming home to visit
holding the hand of a wildeyed boy
with a farmers tan
shes riding in the middle of his pickup truck
blaring charlie daniels yelling turn it up
they raised her up a lady but there’s one thing
they couldn’t avoid
ladies love country boys
you know mamas and daddies want better for their daughters
hope they’ll settle down with a doctor or a lawyer
and their uptown ball gown handmedown royalty
they never understand why their princess falls
for some camouflage britches and a southernboydrawl
she’s riding in the middle of his pickup truck
blaring hank jr yelling turn it up
they raised her up a lady but there’s one thing
they couldn’t avoid ladies love country boys
you can train them you can try to teach them
right from wrong but its still going to turn them on
she’s riding in the middle of his pickup truck
blaring lynyrd skynyrd yelling turn it up
they raised her up a lady but there’s one thing
they couldn’t avoid ladies love country boys
they love us country boys
