(Feat. Eric Church/Dallas Davidson)

Shotgun shack on the edge of town

It's where I'll be when the sun goes down

Big money bird dog barkin' out back

Wouldn't trade him in for a Cadillac

County wanna pave my ole dirt road

Went to the courthouse, said "hell no"

It's a country thing, it's a fish on the string

Mary Jane chompin' on a chicken wing

It's a tire swing on a river bank

It's the way we talk, it's the way we sing

It's either in your blood, or it ain't

It's a country thang

Known my girl since she was fourteen

She's the first runner up to the Hart County Cotton Queen

She was raised on corn bread, purple hull peas

She turns them heads at the feed 'n' seed

She rides in the middle of my four wheel drive

Got a honey hole way back in the pines

It's a country thing, tt's some cut-off jeans

Paintin' her toes on the porch swing

Sweet like sugar cane, come a good rain

Make a little love while the tin roof sings

It's either in your blood, or it ain't

It's a country thang

It's a country thing, barefoot and crazy

Fried green tomatos and some sawmill gravy

Take pride in workin' hard for a livin'

Pray before meals, it feels good givin'

Back to the needy, greedy is not us

Thank God for it even if it ain't much

That's we does it down here in the mud

What else can I say, y'all, it's in my blood

It's either in your blood, or it ain't

(That's how we does right here)

Oh, it's either in your blood or it ain't

(C'mon, y'all)

It's a country thang

It's a country thang

It's a country thang

It's just a country thang
