I'm an outdoor kinda man and I really love the land From the mountains of Montana to the Alabama sand I don't care much about TV 'cause there's country yet to see I'd rather be on the lake with a fishin' friend I'm an outdoor kinda man Give me a cane pole and a shotgun And I can have a whole lotta fun A soft ole pair of hikin' boots A pocket knife and a campfire too You go out in the woods alone wonder where the big buck's roam What's that noise and your heart beats fast Then you smile when a squirrel runs past I don't have to get a bear just want to breathe that country air I'm goin' out every time I can I'm an outdoor lovin' man I'm an outdoor lovin' man I really love the land From the rugged Maine coastline to the Florida Keys sand I don't care much about TV 'cause there's country I ain't seen
I'd rather be on the lake with a fishin' friend I'm an outdoor lovin' man I want a mountaintop and a wheat field A cool clear lake, a rod and a reel A four-wheeler, a ride on a bike A horseback trip, a snowshoe hike The concrete jungle I don't want, I'd rather be out in the swamp My job's got me tied up so I dream of where the red fern grow This weekend I'll find where the river bends and the fish jump high I'll be there every time I can I'm an outdoor kinda man I'm an outdoor lovin' man and I really love the land From the rugged Maine coastline to the Alabama sand All the talk shows on TV they don't do a whole lot for me I'd rather be in a deer stand I'm an outdoor lovin' man I'd rather be on the lake with a fishin' friend I'm an outdoor kinda man
