Its What I Am — текст песни (John Michael Montgomery)

(john calvert/aaron sain)



I got my first guitar when I was just a boy

I was playing the blues instead of playing with toys

Listening to the opry and dreaming of the neon lights

So it was late to bed and early to rise

I worked the field all day and the crowd all night

My finger on the trigger and nashville in my sights

Im the real thing and I sing songs about real life



And I never heard a fiddle called a violin

Never really worried if I fit in

Country aint what I sing its what I am

This hat aint something I wear for style

These boots have been around a while

Country aint what I sing its what I am



I learned to drive on a dirt road

Cruised the strip on rock and roll

And drove around on "miles and miles of texas"

And as I grew daddy showed me now

To earn a living by the sweat of my brow

But he never made me follow in his steps

He said work hard and let the good lord do the rest



And I never heard a fiddle called a violin

Never really worried if I fit in

Country aint what I sing its what I am

This truck aint something I drive for style

These boots have been around a while

Country aint what I sing its what I am



And I never heard a fiddle called a violin

Never really worried if I fit in

Country aint what I sing its what I am

This hat aint something I wear for style

These boots have been around a while

Country aint what I sing its what I am
