Country man

Gettin up while it's still dark, trying to get me a head start.
Bass fishin on a pond in lyons, a stringer full most of the time
Back home just in time to eat. cream and syrup on a biscuit sure is sweet
Put on my cap and right back out the door when i was a country boy

I watched my daddy work it every day.
Nothing ever tough enough to stand in his way

Now im a countryman everyday i take a stand
In my ripped blue jeans on my atv my family's counting on me
Im a countryman, man of steel, i been roughed up and i'm tough as nails
Bullet proof, i've been set free. you don't want to mess with me,
I'm a countryman
Doin the best i can

I used to wanna ride the ole john deere, wishin i could rope a steer.
Spent some time camouflaged in a tree stand, wishin i could own the land.
Wondered how all the work got done. i was trying to have some fun
Back when life was full of joy, when i was a country boy
