I ' m fifth generation

On the same piece of land

My grandfather ' s grandfather

Paid just 10$ to a government man

For this little piece of heaven

That I will always call home

And that won ' t ever change

It runs right through my veins

Straight to my soul

Well you can put me in the city

And I ' ll do just fine

But give me my saddle and a good horse to ride

' Cause at the end of the day

When the work ' s all done

I wanna hang my hat knowing where I ' m coming from

I ' ve got country in my blood

I ' ve got this country in my blood

100 years of come and gone

And there ' s been many that were tough

But through hard work and tears

We made it through those years

Never giving up

And I ' ve seen a lot of places

From up on the stage

But nothing compares to what I got right here

In this wide open space

Well you can put me in the city

And I ' ll do just fine

But give me my cattle and a tractor to drive

' Cause at the end of the day

When the work ' s all done

I wanna hang my hat knowing where I ' m coming from

I ' ve got country in my blood

I ' ve got this country in my blood

Yea you can put me in the city

And I ' ll do just fine

But give me my saddle and a good horse to ride

' Cause at the end of the day

When the work ' s all done

I wanna hang my hat knowing where I ' m coming from

I ' ve got country in my blood

I ' ve got this country in my blood

I ' ve got country in my blood

I ' ve got this country in my blood
