Lyrics Country Down To My Soul - Lee Roy Parnell

Country Down To My Soul

Cruisin' New York City in the back of this limousine
Spendin' my hard-earned money like it grows on trees
You’re an uptown girl
Mighty easy on the eye
But if you think that I' big city
Then you’re in for a big surprise
Now listen little darlin'
there’s things you need to know about me
I like grits and gravy,
hot tamales, black-eyed peas
Wakin' up at first daylight,
headin' for a fishin' hole
You might catch me rockin'
but I’m Country down to my soul
Well I rolled into town
playing guitar in a hillbilly band
You like our rockin' rhythm
You say it makes you want to dance
Just because I like to turn it up and
play a little tooloud
Don’t think for a minute
I don’t fit in with the honky tonk crowd
Now listen little darlin'
there’s some things you need to know about me
I like grits and gravy,
hot tamales, black-eyed peas
Jumpin' in my truck for a ride
headin' down some old back road
You might catch me rockin' but
I’m Country down to my soul
Yes Ma’am I come from Texas
I’m mighty proud of my roots
I don’t wear a hat
but I got forty pair of cowboy boots
Me and Bob Wills used to sing the San Antonio Rose
That’s where I learned to swing it girl
I’m Country down to my soul
Now listen little darlin'
there’s things you need to know about me
I like grits and gravy, hot tamales, black-eyed peas
Layin' on a blanket at night
watchin' the stars put on a show
You might catch me rockin' but
I’m Country down to my soul
You might catch me rockin' but
I’m Country down to my soul
Now that’s Country
