[Intro] [strummed acoustic guitar, steady drum beat, melodic bass line] [Verse 1] [male baritone vocals] Well I was born down in Texas by the Louisiana line And I heard a lot of music on that radio of mine I was raised on Williams, Haggard and Jones And I never thought I'd see the day when rock would turn me on But I got into the music, when I heard that driving beat And when I heard that electric guitar Lord, it knocked me off my feet [Verse 2] [electric guitar fills enter] You know I spent my teenage years in rock and roll and heavy metal daze And you know I thought I'd found the living end and never thought it'd fade away But now I've come full circle and I think I understand This music that I love so much makes me who I am [Chorus] [full band, electric guitar power chords] And I've got rock down in my blood, music in my bones I've got rhythm in my boots and on my lips always a song I don't know where it ends and I don't know where it starts But I guess I'll always be country at heart [Verse 3] [acoustic guitar strumming, drums continue] Every now and then when I find the feeling lost and I think I'm going out of my mind I pick up my guitar just like an old dear friend and it takes me to a better time The music is a remedy for what ails my troubled soul I guess I'll never find a friend, at least a better one I know [Chorus] [electric guitar lead lines] And I've got rock down in my blood, music in my bones I've got rhythm in my boots and on my lips always a song I don't know where it ends and I don't know where it starts But I guess I'll always be country at heart [Chorus] [vocal intensity increases, high harmony enters] But I've got rock down in my blood, music in my bones Rhythm in my boots and on my lips always a song I don't know where it ends and I don't know where it starts But I guess I'll always be country at heart Yeah I know I'll always be country at heart [Outro] [acoustic guitar strum, final drum hit] Yee-haw!
