[0:13]I just want to catch my fish. Drive my truck, drink my beer. I not wake up to all this stuff I don't want to hear. Like the same kind of gun I hunt with, just killed another man. Only thing my dad ever shot was a deer from my deer stand. I just want to cut my grass, feed my dog, wear my boots. I turn the TV on, sit and watch the evening news. Be told if I tell my own daughter that little boys ain't little girls. I give the king of hard water this cancer to your as world. It ain't easy being country in this country nowadays. The directions of things point when everything goes up in flames. Saying I'm somewhere right-wing devil 'cause I was down South Jesus raised. It ain't easy being country in this country nowadays.
[1:39]I just want to cut my grass, watch my game, say my prayers. Not get a picture of a flag up in flames while people cheer. Hold the same one my granddaddy fought for. Stomped on like trash. And I'm a downright hateful monster. I'm black and blue and bash. It ain't easy being country in this country nowadays. The directions the fingers point when everything goes up in flames. Saying I'm some right-wing devil 'cause I was spread then in Jesus raised. It ain't easy being country in this country. Because I have my morals and a small-town point of view. You assume that you don't like me means that I don't like you too.
[2:52]It ain't easy being country in this country nowadays.
