  			G                                                     F 
Hotter than a 45 she pulled up next to me confidently sittin there 
     F          C 
Like she wanted me to stare 
G                                                                             F 
Speakers runnin, that white boy rap and rhymes she turned it up, there wasn't one guitar  
   F         C 
It turned me off so hard 
  F                   C               G  
I punched the gas and we went nowhere fast 
 
       G                 F 
I grew up in the whiskey wind 
              C 
Down red dirt road, a place that I call home 
G                           F 
Baby, you want to rock with me 
                      C                G  
You want to rock with me, you gotta be country 
 
Gotta be with my people, gotta party down, gonna get around on someone new tonight 
She's gonna be just right 
Blue eyed, brown eyed girl with a pretty mouth from way out west or maybe way down south 
You know what I'm talkin bout 
She knows how its done and where I'm coming from
