Clear creeks and cool mountain mornin's
Honest work out in the field
Cornbread in my mama's kitchen
Daddy sayin' grace before the meal

Family ties run deep in this land
And I'm never very far from what I am

I was born country, and that's what I'll always be
Like the rivers and the woodlands, wild and free
I got a hundred years of down home runnin' through my blood
I was born country, and this country's what I love

Moonlight and you here beside me
Crickets serenadin' in the yard
What more could two people ask for?
Layin' here in love beneath the stars

Now this is where I wanna raise my kids
Just the way my mom and daddy did

I was born country, and that's what I'll always be
Like the rivers and the woodlands, wild and free
I got a hundred years of down home runnin' through my blood
I was born country, and this country's what I love

I was born country, and that's what I'll always be
Like the rivers and the woodlands, wild and free
I got a hundred years of down home running through my blood
I was born country, and this country's what I love

I was born country
