Bring it on to me

We're backwoods Dixie, flat woods pickin'
Shotgun wavin', long-neck drinkin'
Huntin' and a fishin', workin' and a wishin' for the weekend

We say, 'Yes Ma'am, no Ma'am, sir, can I lend a hand?'
Take a stand for somethin' we believe in
Love and pray and do anythin' for a good friend

We like camp fires burnin', buttermilk churnin'
Old folks, dirt roads windin' and a turnin'
To a muddy creek, jumpin' from a tall tree into the deep end

That's a country thang
People who don't live it just might think we've gone insane
But to the folks down home, we can stand right up and say
It's a country thang

We like moonlight sippin', late skinny dippin'
Flat rock skippin', catfish hittin'
Sittin' on a creek bank, sun's up but we ain't leavin'

We like country twang and good southern rockin'
Fun in the sun on the bass boat dockin'
Home made wine an' a mess of fish pie and then a hot jam

Got grandmas, grandpas, newborn young 'uns
Double wide homes and double first cousins
An old town square and a county fair, it's a good plan

It's a country thang
People who don't live it just might think we've gone insane
But to the folks down home, we can stand right up and say
It's a country thang

It's a country thang
People who don't live it just might think we've gone insane
But to the folks back home, we can stand right up and say
It's a country thang
It's a country thang
It's a country thang

That's right
