Lyrics

Ballcap, Fishing, Countryboy

Well I was born in the blueridge mountains just above the state line
And that?s where we bass fish all the time
Well I was taught to work for everything I own
And you can?t have everything you won?t
I?m just doing my best to get by
They said I should move to a better place
I said this is where I was born and raised

I?m just a bluejean, ballcap, fishing countryboy
I got a truck and I?m making lots of noise
And I go deer hunting every fall
I?ve got acres and acres of woods surrounding me
I can?t think of a place I?d rather be
And this is where I?ll stand proud and tall
Well you can take a fish out of the sea
But you can?t take the country out of me.

Well I met the city girl one day and she took my heart away
She thought I wouldn?t be hard to tame
Well she dressed me up in all these fancy clothes
And she took me to all the broadway shows
Now she?s wondrin? what drove me away
I said this city life just ain?t for me
I want to go where the air is clean cause

I?m just a bluejean, ballcap, fishing countryboy
I got a truck and I?m making lots of noise
And I go deer hunting every fall
I?ve got acres and acres of woods surrounding me
I can?t think of a place I?d rather be
Need a few cold beers and a fishing pole
Well you can take a fish out of the sea
But you can?t take the country out of me.

Yeah I miss that city girl and hope she?s doing fine
But I?m heading back to the blueridge
Just above the state line cause

I?m just a bluejean, ballcap, fishing countryboy
I got a truck and I?m making lots of noise
And I go deer hunting every fall
I?ve got acres and acres of woods surrounding me
I can?t think of a place I?d rather be
And this is where I?ll stand proud and tall
Well you can take a fish out of the sea
But you can?t take the country out of me.
