Well, they say that I'm too country, the way I look and sound They wanna to make me over, just a little more uptown Say I need to change my image, now tell me what's that mean 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 Sophisticated ain't my style, but country fits me good I ain't ashamed to wear what's been handed down to me Lord, I've got country in my genes
I've got country in my genes, country in my blood It goes back generations, it's something I'm proud of It's something I was born with, what you get is what you see I'm just an old hillbilly with a country song to sing Lord, I've got country in my genes
Oh, that Earl Scruggs
If country's hit the big time, me I'm still the same I ain't above my raisin' and I ain't about to change I wouldn't trade my Wranglers for the finest gabardine Lord, I've got country in my genes
I've got country in my genes, country in my blood It goes back generations, it's something I'm proud of It's something I was born with, what you get is what you see I'm just an old hillbilly with a country song to sing Lord, I've got country in my genes
