Verse 1 I just wanna make it clear from the start That I'm just singin' with a hillbilly heart Ain't got no half-a**ed goddamn city boy roots I feel the ground on my land under my boots Out in the open land, a man can be a man For the neon lights I do not give a damn Chorus Just give me shotgun, trucks and cow Horses, whiskey and rye All the things that keep the beat up in this hillbilly heart You can't change that even if you try Verse 2 Well I don't understand the way things go down For some people who are livin' in town They have lost connection with reality Living only for the fashions on tv You know that I spend my weekends Out hunting with my friends And that sure as hell is better than all trains (it sure is) Chorus Just give me shotgun, trucks and cow Horses, whiskey and rye All the things that keep the beat up in this hillbilly heart You can't change that even if you try Guitar Solo Verse 3 Well hey there little purdy city girl I know that you want your diamond rings and pearls And you think us country boys ain't any good Cause you count money a lot higher than the woods (?) Well you know, I think you honestly That fancy j**elry ain't nothing to compare To living in the free Chorus Cause we got shotguns, trucks and cow Horses, whiskey and rye All the things that keep the beat up in this hillbilly heart Keeps the beatin, girl Shotguns, trucks and cow Horses, whiskey and rye All the things that keeps the beating in this hillbilly heart Keeps the beating 'til the day i die.
