G
Well they say that I'm too country the way I look and sound
D7
They wanna to make me over just a little more uptown
G C
Say I need to change my image now tell me what that means
G C D7 G
Don't they know I've got country in my genes
Well I can't help the way I talk I wouldn't change it if I could
D7
Sophisticated ain't my style but country fits me good
G C
I ain't ashamed to wear what's been handed down to me
G C D7 G
Lord I've got country in my genes
C
I've got country in my genes country in my blood
G
It goes back generations it's something I'm proud of
C
It's something I was born with what you get is what you see
A7 D7
I'm just an old hilly-billy with a country song to sing
G C D7 G
Lord I've got country in my genes
If country's hit the big time me I'm still the same
D7
I ain't above my raisin' and I ain't about to change
G C
I wouldn't trade my Wranglers for the finest gabardine
G C D7 G
Lord I've got country in my genes
Repeat #2,3
C D7 G
Lord I've got country in my genes
