If you've met me, then you've met my old man He'll look you in your eyes and shake your hand Where I'm from, what I believe Might as well be on my sleeve And you don't have to wonder who I am
It ain't like you can't see these old worn-out boots Hear this drawl when I talk to you Son, as soon as I pull up there's no denyin' That sacred ground stuck in my tread The red that's right there on my neck Hell, there ain't no use in me tryin' to fight it It ain't like I can hide it
There's a farm with a flag and a barn on a gravel road And a swing on the porch of the house that I call home That's where this boy became a man You might wonder where I stand But if you've been there, hell, you already know
'Cause it ain't like you can't see these old worn-out boots Hear this drawl when I talk to you Son, as soon as I pull up there's no denyin' That sacred ground stuck in my tread The red that's right there on my neck Hell, there ain't no use in me tryin' to fight it It ain't like I can hide it
It ain't like I can hide it
No, I can't hide the skoal ring in my blue jeans Hide the small town in my blood Hide the country, there's just some things that you can't cover up
It ain't like you can't see these old worn out boots Hear this drawl when I talk to you Son, as soon as I pull up there's no denying That sacred ground stuck in my tread The red that's right there on my neck Hell, there ain't no use in me tryin' to fight it It ain't like I can hide it
It ain't like I can hide it It ain't like I can hide it, no
