[Verse 1] Daddy put boots on my feet Mama taught me straight and true Red clay on my tires And a porch light point of view I know every dirt road turn And every name in town [Pre-Chorus] You can hear it in my drawl When I say where I'm from Got a whole lot of reasons To sing this one out loud [Chorus] South born proud South born proud I was raised this way And I wear it out loud South born proud South born proud This old country boy Ain't backing down now [Verse 2] Saturday at the ball field Sunday by the river bend Granddaddy's old truck Still starts in the summer wind We shake hands firm And we say what we mean [Pre-Chorus] You can hear it in my drawl When I say where I'm from Got a whole lot of reasons To sing this one out loud [Chorus] South born proud South born proud I was raised this way And I wear it out loud South born proud South born proud This old country boy Ain't backing down now [Bridge] From the pine trees to the cotton rows From the screen door to the county show I ain't changing for nobody No matter where I go [Final Chorus] South born proud South born proud I was raised this way And I wear it out loud South born proud South born proud This old country boy Ain't backing down now South born proud South born proud And I'll tell the whole world I'm from the South
