Way back up in the country
Back in the hills down in the hollers where the folks are real living with the crazies and the old wildcats
Sawed off shotguns and coon skin caps
That's where I'm from and I'm proud to say
I'm from the country and I like it that way
Everybody knows everybody
Everybody calls you friend
You don't need an invitation
Kick off your shoes come on in
Yeah we know how to work and we know how to play
We're from the country and we like it that way

All day long we work in the fields to bring it on home to a home cooked meal
We love you like Sunday treat you like
Saturday night
And when the beds are all full
We can sleep in the hay
We're from the country and we like it that way
Everybody knows everybody
Everybody calls
You friend you don't need an invitation
Kick off your shoes
Come on in
Yeah we know how to work and we know how to play
We're from the country and we like it that way

Everybody knows everybody
Everybody calls you friend you don't need an invitation
Kick off your shoes come on in
Yeah we know how to work and we know how to play
We're from the country
We're from the country
We're from the country and we like it that way

We're from the country
We're from the country
We're from the country and we like it that way
