:Verse 1:
Everyday someone asks me whats my story and what do I like to do
And everyday, for the most part, I only go so far; I almost never tell the truth
Cause the truth is behind me theres not much, to give up, I like simple, not complicated
:Chorus:
(Cause) Im a small town kid, driven by rock music And some honky-tonk, in the mix
I like whiskey in coke, a double to the top, a shot of cuervo now and then
I never ask for a lot, Ill never need much, just a good-looking lady who can drive my truck
Im not afraid to admit, Im that small town kid
City lights, yellow cabs, Yankee hats, Suits and ties everywhere
These City folks, they look at me in my shirt and jeans, they make me think I dont fit in here
Well the things they say might be right, they might be so but one thing I know: I
cant change who I am
Mama dont you worry
They won't change me
A hundred thousand miles
Mean nothing to me
