Long as there's an old truck
With a boat hitched up
Backin' down a ramp at the lake
Long as there's a back road
Fields of gold
And a John Deere rollin' all day
Long as there's cold beer sittin' in a cooler
And a Friday night in my future
Long as there's a band and a bar
With a tip jar ready to play
Let there be country
Boots kickin' up dust
Let there be neon light and a sky full of stars above
Let there be mud tires, bonfires
And hometown girls and shotgun seats
Let there be country
For country boys like me
Long as there's haystacks
And Bass Pro caps
And a Redman ring on your jeans
Long as there's a heel, a toe, a do-si-do
Cuttin' loose with your honky tonk queen
Long as there's trailers in the trailer parks
And songs about broken hearts
Long as there's a barrel of whiskey
Down in Lynchburg, Tennessee
Let there be country
Boots kickin' up dust
Let there be neon light and a sky full of stars above
Let there be mud tires, bonfires
And hometown girls and shotgun seats
Let there be country
For country boys like me
♪
Long as there's good ole boys goin' fishin'
Let there be country
Long as there's apple pie sittin' in the kitchen
Let there be country
Long as there's a dog in a pickup bed
And all of God's people said
Let there be country
Boots kickin' up dust
Let there be neon light and a sky full of stars above
Let there be mud tires, bonfires
And hometown girls and shotgun seats
Let there be country
For country boys like me
