Intro: DGDGVerse 1:
D
Wear my name on the back of my belt
G
Believe there's a God to save me from hell
DG
And dirt roads were made for country boys like me
D
Don't believe in politically correct
G
You wanna a piece better have a set
DGA rifle and a four wheel drive is all I need
A
Small-mouth bass on the end of a hook
G
Daddy read from the good book
Chorus:
DG
I'm just a country boy from this land
DG
Makin' a living with these two hands
DG
Still believe in the good ole American way
DG
I watch 'em shut the factories down
DG
Then the foreigners flood into town
DG
And take what's left for half the pay
AG
We can't stand back and just let it fade away
D
The good ole American way
Verse 2:
D
Got sense enough to know things change
G
But the little man's getting screwed today
DG
Somebody with a backbone please stand up
D
Oh we worked so hard to get this far
G
Now we're forgetting who we are
DG
Hell we tolerate everything and just call it love
A
Don't tell me there ain't somethin' wrong
G
Somebody's gotta sing this song
Chorus:
DG
I'm just a country boy from this land
DG
Makin' a living with these two hands
DG
Still believe in the good ole American way
DG
I watch 'em shut the factories down
DG
Then the foreigners flood into town
DG
And take what's left for half the pay
AG
We can't stand back and just let it fade away
D
The good ole American way
AG
We can't stand back and just let it fade away
D
The good ole American way
