  			     G                                     C                   G 
Some people say I'm not country, say I'm a little too rock and roll  
    G                                                D      
Say I'm a little too loud for the Opry crowd and I'm not enough country gold  
        G                                                    C                      A7 
But I'm not gonna' change may little home on the range to be what you think country is  
         C                      G              E7            C            D      G 
'Cause I call it like I see it, sing it like I mean it and I play it just like I live 

                  C                         G 
Man if that ain't country I don't know what is  
              D                                      G 
If that ain't country, man I'm as country as country gets  
        C                                      G 
I ain't champagne, I'm more like the Budweiser fizz  
              D                          G 
If that ain't country, I don't know what is  
 
  
Well you see this hat, it ain't no act and these boots they aren't for show  
I'm not schooled in voice, I'm not country by choice, man, country is all I know  
I've been bailin' hay and plowin' fields all day since I was just a kid  
See country to me ain't some song that I sing, it's more about the life that I live  
 
 
Chorus 2: 
Man if that ain't country I don't know what is  
If that ain't country, man I'm as country as country gets  
I ain't Beethoven, I'm more like a Jack Daniel's fifth  
If that ain't country, well I don't know what is  
 
Fiddle  
  
Well it's where I play, it's where I stay and it's where they'll lay me down  
I'm here today friends by the grace of God and a few good rodeo clowns  
Now if all of this ain't enough to convince you that my colors are tried and true  
Well my neck is red, my pick-up's white and my cow dog's name is Blue  
 
Chorus 3: 
Man if that ain't country I don't know what is  
If that ain't country, man I'm as country as country gets  
I sure ain't GQ, and I ain't about no crossover hits  
If I'm not country, then I don't know what is  
  
 
See friends It ain't about winnin' no Oscar  
What you see is what you get  
If that ain't country I don't know what is
