Country In My Genes

G
Well they say that I'm too country the way I look and sound

                           D7
They wanna to make me over just a little more uptown

      G                           C
Say I need to change my image now tell me what that means

G                        C       D7    G
Don't they know I've got country in my genes



Well I can't help the way I talk I wouldn't change it if I could

                                 D7
Sophisticated ain't my style but country fits me good

        G                           C
I ain't ashamed to wear what's been handed down to me

G             C       D7    G
Lord I've got country in my genes


         C
I've got country in my genes country in my blood

   G
It goes back generations it's something I'm proud of

     C
It's something I was born with what you get is what you see

    A7                             D7
I'm just an old hilly-billy with a country song to sing

G             C       D7    G
Lord I've got country in my genes



If country's hit the big time me I'm still the same

                               D7
I ain't above my raisin' and I ain't about to change

  G                                   C
I wouldn't trade my Wranglers for the finest gabardine

G             C       D7    G
Lord I've got country in my genes



Well I can't help the way I talk I wouldn't change it if I could

                                 D7
Sophisticated ain't my style but country fits me good

        G                           C
I ain't ashamed to wear what's been handed down to me

G             C       D7    G
Lord I've got country in my genes


         C
I've got country in my genes country in my blood

   G
It goes back generations it's something I'm proud of

     C
It's something I was born with what you get is what you see

    A7                             D7
I'm just an old hilly-billy with a country song to sing

G             C       D7    G
Lord I've got country in my genes


              C       D7    G
Lord I've got country in my genes
