I like spring and dogs and rusty sreen doors
Candlelight on creaky wood floors
A good sunrise and fireflies in a jar
A banjo ringing through the pines
The way I feel on homemade wine
And jug fishing underneath the stars
I am OK
I'm just fine
I wish the world would move slower
Or we can go back in time
I'm just down home southern
Y'all I don't need nothing
Just enough to get me by
I was raised at an early age
When you shake a man's hand
And look him square in the eye
I'm real cool old-school
Don't you lie to me fool
Ain't thing about me fake
Well im a modern day John Wayne
With my daddy's last name
Born 50 years too late
Well whatever happened to a honest days work
Sweatin hard in a flannel shirt
It's a fast pace rat race
Don't give take all who's going to finish first
Now days it's safe to say
That a damn dog has more rights
Because the aministrations
Tryin ta rule the population
Y'all we got to stand up and fight
But I don't complain
I take it all in stride
But it seems the whole damn world is changed
Almost over night
But I'm still down home southern
Y'all I don't need nothing
Just enough to get me by
I was raised at an early age
When you shake the man's hand
And look him square in the eye
I'm real cool old-school
Don't lie to me fool
Ain't a thing about me fake
Well I'm on modern day John Wayne
With my daddy's last name
Born 50 years too late
I don't complain I take it all in stride
It just seems the whole damn world is changed
Right before my eyes
I'm still down home southern
And I don't need nothing
Just enough to get me by
I was rasied at an early age
When you shake the man's hand
And look him Square in the eye
I am real cool old-school
Don't lie to me fool
Ain't a thing about me fake
I'm a modern day John Wayne
With my daddy's last name
Born 50 years too late
A modern day John Wayne
With my daddy's last name
Born 50 years too late
50 years to late
No we cant go back
Not now
Not ever
