[Verse 1] Never had to beg too much for a dollar. But I've done a few sketchy things down in the darkness of the hollers. My wrangler jeans and pickup trucks, getting all down and dirty in the mud. Baby, there's nothing I love more, Than sitting 'round a fire making smores. [Pre-chorus] Cause I can't help but melt when I'm with you. You're my favorite part of the south, Even more than the peaches my maw maw grew. [Chorus 1] These country roots, Make me feel like I'm always on vacation. And I can't help but fall in love, When I see a pair of daisy dukes on a lovely lady. That's why I never roam, Too far from the place I call home. [Verse 2] Never liked the bright lights of the big ol' city. Yeah, but now you best believe, Some of them city slicker girls are down right pretty. [Prechorus 2] And I can't help but melt when I'm with you. You're my favorite part of the confederacy, Even more than Dollywood. [Chorus 2] Cause these country roots, Make me feel like I'm always on vacation. And I can't help but fall in love, When I see a pair of daisy dukes on a lovely lady. That's why I never roam, Too far from the place I call home. [Bridge] The Carolinas and Tennessee, Don't mean as much as you do to me, But don't you dare lay a finger on my dog. Find me in Appalachia and I'll come faster, Than a boy's first time on prom night. And don't ya even think about talking shit about my hog. [Chorus 3] Cause these country roots, Make me feel like I'm always on vacation. And I can't help but fall in love, When I see a pair of daisy dukes on a lovely lady. That's why I never roam, Too far from the place I call home.
