The Older I Get (More Country I'm Gettin' to Be) - Jon Wolfe

Well grandpa turned me onto Hank

Williams Lockland and Snow

Dad gave me Waylon Willie and Merle

On his old Chevy truck radio

All of my friends were rock 'n' roll fans

But not much has changed for me

As a matter of fact the older I get

The more country I'm getting to be

So here's to the real stuff

Mamas and babies lovers and crazies

Working folks making ends meet

Honky Tonk weekends barbecue chicken

Waving the flag cause you're free

And when push comes to shove

It's in God We Trust

And fighting for what you believe

Pearl snaps and long necks

Yeah the older I get

The more country I am gettin' to be

There was a time I was keen on Corvettes

Ragtops and 18 inch wheels

But here I am driving my old man's old 65 pick up

Cause I love how it feels

Gettin' farther away from those big city lights

Where the roots of my raisin' run deep

And I ain't looking back cause the older I get

The more country I'm getting to be

So here's to the real stuff

Mamas and babies lovers and crazies

Working folks making ends meet

Honky Tonk weekends barbecue chicken

And waving the flag cause you're free

And when push comes to shove

It's in God We Trust

And fighting for what you believe

Pearl snaps and long necks

Yeah the older I get

The more country I am getting to be

I was always redneck

But the older I get

The more country I'm getting to be
