E                                             A 
There's some things in this country you don't mess with 
    E                          B7 
And I am blessed to be on that short list 
               E 
We're out here in the real world 
         A 
Not that feel good media swirl 
    E               B7                 E 
And we've something for you – read our lips 

E 
They made a huge miscalculation 
          A 
About the mood of this nation 
             E                              B7 
Good workin' people done got tired of bein' wronged 
          E 
Then they saw one of their own 
       D                  A   G 
Get mistreated and dumped on 
          E               B7            E 
They were standin' behind him, he's not alone 

G D A  

Spoken:  
G                                           D  
I wanna dedicate this song to Brad Paisley, Carrie Underwood, 
        A 
and the first man that said this - President Harry Truman 

A                     G    D 
Never kick a cow turd on a hot day 
   E                              A 
Or you might get some poo on your pants legs 
Thought they were gonna have some fun 
         D 
Kickin' around old Hank's son 
    E                           A 
But America had my back all the way 

A                              G    D 
Remember never kick a cow turd on a hot day 
E                                A 
Never pick up a rattle snake the wrong way 
                                    D 
Never ever kick, would've been much smarter just let it slip 
E 
Never kick a cow turd, should've let the man just be heard 
                           A 
Never kick a cow turd on a hot day 

Yee-haw! Sooey!
