[Verse 1]
Trailer park nights, dirt bike lights
Muddin’ up the backroads, raising hell till daylight
Daddy had a 45, Mama had a prayer
Grew up fast, but love was always there
Four-wheel slides, running from the blue lights
Too young to drive, but we sure as hell tried
Bonfire burning, tailgate throne
Whiskey in a Coke can, country to the bone
[Chorus]
Yeah, I’m a backwoods, raised-right, hard-livin’ son
A little too fast, a little too wild, but I ain’t ashamed of where I’m from
Tattooed arms, a rebel at heart
Redneck roots, been country from the start
Ain’t nothin’ fake, what you see is real
Southern raised, yeah, that’s the deal
[Verse 2]
Hunt club nights, sightin’ down a deer scope
Smoked my first Marlboro, choked on my first toke
Mama’s in the kitchen, frying up a Sunday spread
Daddy’s in the driveway, talkin’ tough and breakin’ bread
Rust on the Chevy, dust on my boots
Ain’t scared of hard work, ain't got nothin' to prove
Fell down, got up, learned to fight my own fight
A little bit of reckless, but I turned out alright
[Chorus]
Yeah, I’m a backwoods, raised-right, hard-livin’ son
A little too fast, a little too wild, but I ain’t ashamed of where I’m from
Tattooed arms, a rebel at heart
Redneck roots, been country from the start
Ain’t nothin’ fake, what you see is real
Southern raised, yeah, that’s the deal
[Bridge]
Some call it rowdy, some call it rough
But I call it blessed, and I call it tough
Ain’t got regrets, just stories to tell
Made it out strong, raised a little hell
[Chorus – BIG FINAL HOOK]
Yeah, I’m a backwoods, raised-right, hard-livin’ son
A little too fast, a little too wild, but I ain’t ashamed of where I’m from
Tattooed arms, a rebel at heart
Redneck roots, been country from the start
Ain’t nothin’ fake, what you see is real
Southern raised, yeah, that’s the deal
[Outro]
Dirt on my jeans, sun on my skin
Ain't afraid to lose, ain't afraid to win
Southern raised, yeah, that’s the deal
