I was raised on the bible and the belt
Taught to say 'Yes sir' and 'Yes ma'am'
Say the grace before you eat, bow your head
And take off your hat, I still believe in that
When neighbors weren't just neighbors, they were friends
You could count on them through thick and thin
To help chop the wood, cut the grass
Give you the shirt right off their back, I still believe in that
When a handshake and your word
Was better than any piece of paper
And you made an honest living
From the fruits of your labor
When we all prayed to Jesus
We all pledged our allegiance to the flag
I still believe in that
Yeah, our heroes and our idols were home grown
Didn't find them on no TV show
They were our teachers and our preachers
Our soldier's, moms and dads, I still believe in that
When a handshake and your word
Was better than any piece of paper
And you made an honest living
From the fruits of your labor
When we all prayed to Jesus
We all pledged our allegiance to the flag
I still believe in that
No, I don't know where we're going
Or when we got off track
But there's a lot that we could learn from the past
I still believe in that, I still believe in that
I was raised on the bible and the belt
Taught to say 'Yes sir' and 'Yes ma'am'
I still believe in that, I still believe in that
I still believe in that
