Lyrics Rhett Akins – Country Strong
Text:
Cat diesel power cab pulled down low
Makin’ that bacon row by row
Can’t get them muscles pumpin’ iron all day
Just from choppin’ cotton, cuttin’ corn and slingin’ that hay
Been heavy liftin’ since the crack of dawn
No doubt about it, that boy’s country strong
He’s up in the mornin’ yawnin’ with them work boots on
Workin’ like hell till the dinner bell brings him on home
Blue collar in his blood, backwoods in his bones
No doubt about it, that boy’s country strong
He wears an old felt hat on his head
Got a saddle for a pillow and the ground for a bed
Spurs on his heels, reigns in his hands
Drivin’ cattle, ropin’ steers and burnin’ his brands
There ain’t no lettin’ up all day long
No doubt about it, that boy’s country strong
Hes up in the mornin’ yawnin’ with them tony lamas on
Workin’ like hell till the dinner bell brings him on home
Blue collar in his blood, backwoods in his bones
No doubt about it, that boy’s country strong
Yeah behind every good man, there’s a woman
Shes the one thing that keeps him going
(Keeps him going, yeah)
Shes up in the morning yawning with that coffee pot on
Workin’ like hell till the dinner bell brings him back home
Blue collar in her blood, backwoods in her bones
No doubt about it, that girl’s country strong
Cowboys, plow boys, good hearted women, they’re all country strong
