Lyrics Country Boy Can’t Survive - Cole Swindell

One more tall pour, don't know what for
'Cause it ain't doing nothing 'bout your memory

Hat low, boots on, I love this song
But tonight it's hitting a little bit differently

Hank's singing 'bout how to get by everything
But five foot three, blue eyes

Push the city limits to the sticks
Close the honky tonks down at five
I could still drink and I could still fish
Get on with my backwoods way of life
Now I ain't saying Bocephus lied
But ever since you said goodbye
I think I found the one thing a country boy can't survive

I can fix up a broke truck, but this time, I'm stuck
Somewhere between can't go home and I can't stay here
Last thing I wanna hear is

Hank singing 'bout how to get through everything
But me standing there in your rear view

Push the city limits to the sticks
Close the honky tonks down at five
I could still drink and I could still fish
Get on with my backwoods way of life
Now I ain't saying Bocephus lied
But ever since you said goodbye
I think I found the one thing a country boy can't survive

A girl like that gettin' gone
The kinda hurt you can't rub dirt on, it ain't enough
Thought I was tough, but I ain't that strong, naw

They can push the city limits to the sticks
Close the honky tonks down at five
I could still drink and I could still fish
Get on with my backwoods way of life
Now I ain't saying Bocephus lied
But ever since you said goodbye
I think I found the one thing a country boy can't survive

Yeah, I think I found the one thing a country boy can't survive
