D
Way back in the country, back in the hills,
D
Deep in the hollar where the folks are real,
G
Living with the crazy\'s and the old wild cats,
D
With sawwed off shotguns and coon skinnned cats,
A
That\'s where I\'m from and I\'m proud to say,
D
I\'m from the country and I like it that way.
[Chorus]
D
Everybody knows everybody, everybody calls you friend,
G
You don\'t need an invitation,
D
kick off your shoes come on in,
A
Yeah, we know how to work and we know how to play,
D (Strum Once)
Were from the country and we like it that way.
(Continue to strum the D until you start the next verse.)
[Verse 2]
D
All day long we work in the fields,
D
Bring it all home for a home cooked meal,
G
We love you like Sunday,
GD
but we treat you like Saturday night,
A
And when the beds get full we can sleep in the hay,
D
Hey! We\'re from the country and we like it that way
[Chorus]
D
Everybody knows everybody, everybody calls you friend,
G
You don\'t need an invitation,
D
kick off your shoes come on in,
A
Yeah, we know how to work and we know how to play,
D (Strum Once)
Were from the country and we like it that way.
