Can't Hide Country

It won't take you long to figure me out
I go and give it away when I open my mouth
This southern drawl rings clear as day
Lord knows I can't be something I ain't
I got a good old hound who eats what I don't
He lays on the front porch and stares down the dirt road
My home smells of biscuits and blueberry jam
What you see is what you get
It's who I am
You can't hide country
No, you can't hide country
It's so obvious it ain't even funny
Lord, you can't hide country
Now some folks get too big for their britches
They think they're high above this simple way of living
As if you could throw out country like a pair of old boots
But before too long they learn the truth
'Cause you could shine yourself up just like a new
Penny or pack your bags and move off to the city
But country ain't about where you are
Country lives deep within your heart
Oh, you can't hide country
No, you can't hide country
It's so obvious it ain't even funny
Lord, you can't hide country
Yeah, those roots run as deep as the mountains are high
Ain't no digging them up, so honey, why would
You try to hide where you're from, who you are
Can't you see?
In a rear of its head, oh, you better believe
You can't hide country
No, you can't hide country
It's so obvious it ain't even funny
Lord, you can't hide country
No, you can't hide country
No, you can't
