G C G
Cat Diesel Power cap pulled down low
D G
makin that bacon, row by row
C G
Can't get them muscles at the Y-M-C-A
D G
it's from choppin' cotton, cuttin' corn and slingin' that hay
Em C G
been heavy liftin' since the crack of dawn
D G
no doubt about it that boy's country strong
G C G
he's up in the mornin' yawnin' with those work boots on
D G
workin' like hell 'til the dinner bell brings him back home
C G
blue collar in his blood, backwoods in his bones
D G
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, reins in his hands
drivin' cattle, ropin' steers and burnin' his brand
there ain't no lettin' up all day long
no doubt about it that boy's country strong
he's up in the mornin' yawnin' with those Tony Llama's on
workin' like hell 'til the dinner bell brings him back home
blue collar in his blood, backwoods in his bones
no doubt about it that boy's country strong
Yea behind every good man, there's a woman
she's the one thing that keeps him goin', keeps him goin'
she's up in the mornin' yawnin' with that coffee pot on
workin' like hell 'til 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
cowboy's, plowboys, good hearted women
they're all country strong
