I still drive a pickup, I still wear boots Red, white and blue are the colors I bleed I grew up country, I'm proud of my roots I'm a Johnny Cash junkie and a Buck Owens freak Three cords and some down-home soul Some things never grow old I grew up on

Wherever I roam This piece of home I think of all That you stand for When I'm far away And I can't get through Keeps bringing me back to you Holding on to hope There's no need to fear

Remember me to Roxy Anne You know she's still lovely The last time you saw me That you only saw the back of my head Southern Pacific Tell her I was on the move Red, white and blue Where are we running to? Over the wide plains

Knock on wood we all stay good It's way out there but I don't care Black and white a red and blue Things that look good on you And if I scream don't let me go 'Cause we all live in Hollywood With Dracula and Darla Hood Unspoken words were understood To

And I think to myself what a wonderful world I see trees of green, red roses too I see them bloom for me and you I see skies of blue and clouds of white The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky Are also

So pride yourself on what you are, And hold them all to words they can't take back, I've seen a place (it comes) to me in dreams Where fires die but light still shines for us to see So come test me, so come break me, So come on intoxicate me With hands

Somebody said they saw me, swinging the world by the tail Bouncing over a white cloud, killing the blues Leaves were falling, just like embers In colors red and gold, they set us on fire Burning just like a moonbeam in our eyes Now I am guilty of
