clear greens and cool mountain mornings
honest work out in the field
cornbread in my momma's kitchen
daddy sayin' grace before the meal
family ties run deep in this land
and i'm never very far from what i am
i was born country
and that's what i'll always be
like the rivers and the woodlands wild and free
got a hundred years of down home
running through my blood
i was born country
and this country is what i love
moonlight and you here beside me
crickets serenading in the yard
what more could two people ask for
laying here in love beneath the stars
but this is where i wanna raise my kids
just the way my mom and daddy did
i was born country
and that's what i'll always be
like the rivers and the woodlands wild and free
i got a hundred years of down home
running through my blood
i was born country
and this country is what i love
i was born country
and that's what i'll always be
like the rivers and the woodlands wild and free
i got a hundred years of down home
running through my blood
i was born country
and this country is what i love
i was born country
