Ladies Love Country Boys

Ladies Love Country Boys - Trace Adkins

She grew up in the city in a little subdivision

Her daddy wore a tie,

Mama never fried a chicken

Ballet, straight-As, most likely to succeed

They bought her a car after graduation

Sent her down South for some higher education

Put her on the fast track to a law degree

Now shes coming home to visit

Holding the hand of a wild-eyed boy

With a farmers tan

Shes riding in the middle of his pickup truck

Blaring Charlie Daniels, yelling, Turn it up!

They raised her up a lady

But theres one thing

They couldnt avoid

Ladies love country boys

You know mamas and

Daddies want better for their daughters

Hope theyll settle down

With a doctor or a lawyer

And their uptown, ball gown,

Hand-me-down royalty

They never understand

Why their princess falls

For some camouflage britches

And a southern-boy-drawl

Or why shes riding

In the middle of a pickup truck

Blaring Hank Jr., yelling, Turn it up!

They raised her up a lady

But theres one thing

They couldnt avoid

Ladies love country boys

You can train em,

You can try to teach em

Right from wrong

But its still gonna turn em on

And they go riding

In the middle of a pickup truck

Blaring Lynyrd Skynyrd, yelling, Turn it up!

You can raise her up a lady

But theres one thing

You just cant avoid

Ladies love country boys

They love us country boys
