Lyrics for Song: Ladies Love Country Boys
Lyrics for Album: Til The Last Shot's Fired: The Definitive Greatest Hits [2010]
"This is for all you sophisticated ladies out there."
She grew up in the city in a little subdivision.
Her daddy wore a tie, mama never fried a chicken.
Ballet, straight A's, 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 she's comin' home to visit holdin' the hand
of a wild eyed boy with a farmer's tan.
She's ridin' in the middle of his pick-up truck,
blarin' Charlie Daniels yellin' "Turn it up!"
They raised her up a lady, but there's one thing they couldn't avoid.
Ladies love country boys.
Yeah, you know mama's and daddy's want better for their daughters
Hope they'll 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 she's ridin' in the middle of his pick-up truck,
blarin' Hank Jr. yellin' "Turn it up!"
They raised her up a lady, but there's one thing they couldn't avoid.
Ladies love country boys.
You can train 'em.
You can try to teach 'em right from wrong,
But it's still gonna turn 'em on.
When they go ridin' in the middle of his pick-up truck,
blarin' Lynyrd Skynyrd yellin' "Turn it up!"
You can raise her up a lady, but there's one thing you just can't avoid.
Ladies love country boys.
They love us country boys
