I was raised down there where the creek gonna rise
And them crickets gonna sang you a tune
Alligator swamps and them cypress knees
Where the sun's too hot by noon
Where we getting it in you know we getting done
Taught to stand our ground
You know we packing them guns
We love our country
Kneel for the cross
But if you cross that line, Hoss
This is where I'm from this is how I was raised
Ain't a damn thang you gonna change
My Papaw taught me how to live off the land
So I'd always find me a way
I can run a trotline put a seed in the ground
Work hard put that beer on ice
Take it to church I put my knees in the dirt
And this is how I'm gonna live my life
You can kiss my ass, Hoss
Cause we ain't never gonna change our ways
Kiss my ass, Hoss
No the government won't get their way
You can kiss my ass, Hoss
Let the good Lord's will be done
As far as me and mine when the shit goes down
We gotta Bible and a shotgun
I know the good Lord's coming
And I'll be damn if I'm running
From my family or my faith
I'll die fighting for something
We know it's gonna go down
We've watched the whole world change
They praising killers to be hero's
That's what's happening today
So many soldiers that fought for all the freedoms we have
But everybody's still bitching bout the shit they don't have
See I'm proud of where I'm from and I don't have no privilege
I pay them same damn bills and work hard for my living
This is where I'm from this is how I was raised
Ain't a damn thang you gonna change
My Papaw taught me how to live off the land
So I'd always find me a way
I can run a trotline put a seed in the ground
Work hard put that beer on ice
Take it to church I put my knees in the dirt
And this is how I'm gonna live my life
You can kiss my ass, Hoss
This is where I'm from this is how I was raised
Ain't a damn thang you gonna change
My Papaw taught me how to live off the land
So I'd always find me a way
I can run a trotline put a seed in the ground
Work hard put that beer on ice
Take it to church I put my knees in the dirt
And this is how I'm gonna live my life
This is where I'm from this is how I was raised
Ain't a damn thang you gonna change
My Papaw taught me how to live off the land
So I'd always find me a way
I can run a trotline put a seed in the ground
Work hard put that beer on ice
Take it to church I put my knees in the dirt
And this is how I'm gonna live my life
