What do you call when a good ole boy
Takes his girl down by the river
Lays a blanket in the shade of an old oak tree
Bottle of wine big blue sky
Tackle and fishing line
It's just one word that says it all to me
I call it country to the bone
Country stone cold deep down homegrown
Country in your root
Country to your boots
That's what it is
I call it country
What do you call
When a score ring
Starts wearing through your old blue jewels
And when you won't  stop wearing your favorite dirty hat
Some might call it redneck backwoods hillbilly
But to me there's only one good word for that
I call it country to the bone
Country stone cold deep down homegrown
Country in your roots
Country to your boots
That's what it is
I call it country
I call it country
What do you call when a guy like me
Falls in love with a girl as sweet as apple pie
And pretty as rose in bloom
I call it country to the bone
Country stone cold
Deep down homegrown
Country in your roots
Country to your boots
That's what it is
I call it country to the bone
Country stone cold
Deep down homegrown
Country in your roots
Country to your boots
That's what it is
I call it country
I call it country
I call it country
That's country
