It's What I Am

It's What I Am - The Hit Crew

I got my first guitar when I was just a boy

I was playing the blues instead

Of playing with toys

Listening to the opry and

Dreaming of the neon lights

So it was late to bed and early to rise

I worked the field all day and

The crowd all night

My finger on the trigger and

Nashville in my sights

I'm the real thing and I sing

Songs about real life

And I never heard a fiddle called a violin

Never really worried if I fit in

Country ain't what I sing its what I am

This hat ain't something I wear for style

These boots have been around a while

Country ain't what I sing its what I am

I learned to drive on a dirt road

Cruised the strip on rock and roll

And drove around on miles

And miles of texas

And as I grew daddy showed me now

To earn a living by the sweat of my brow

But he never made me follow in his steps

He said work hard and let the

Good lord do the rest

And I never heard a fiddle called a violin

Never really worried if I fit in

Country ain't what I sing its what I am

This truck ain't something I drive for style

These boots have been around a while

Country ain't what I sing its what I am

And I never heard a fiddle called a violin

Never really worried if I fit in

Country ain't what I sing its what I am

This hat ain't something I wear for style

These boots have been around a while

Country ain't what I sing its what I am
