"Country In My Genes" Lyrics

Well, they say that I'm too country, the way I look and
sound
They wanna make me over, just a little more uptown
Say I need to change my image, now tell me what that means
Don't they know I got country in my genes?

Well, I can't help the way I talk, I wouldn't change it if I
could
Sophisticated it ain't my style, but country fits me good
And I ain't ashamed for wearing what's been handed down to me
Oh Lord, I got country in my genes

I got country in my genes, country in my blood
It goes back generations, it's something I'm proud of
Something I was born with, what you get is what you see
And I'm just an old hillbilly with a bluegrass song to sing
Oh Lord, I got country in my genes

If country's hit the big time, me I'm still the same
And I ain't above my raisin' and I ain't about to change
And I wouldn't trade my Wranglers for the finest gabardine
Oh Lord, I got country in my genes

I got country in my genes, country in my blood
It goes back generations, it's something I'm proud of
Something I was born with, what you get is what you see
And I'm just an old hillbilly with a bluegrass song to sing
Oh Lord, I got country in my genes

Oh Lord, I got country in my genes
