Where I come from they're good at raising
Their hands on Sunday drinks up high and a bunch of babies
Everybody knows everybody's business
Like who got drunk who got fired and whose been kissing
Eighteen years old I hit the road
Didn't plan on lookin' back
But you don't need with roots that deep
No matter where you're at
It's in my blood it's in my veins
The way I talk and the way I pray
If I close my eyes on me right now
You can take the girl right out of the country
But the country stays running in my veins
Running in my veins
For a little while I can tone it down
But a couple drinks or a call from mama brings it out
I'm a sucker for a romance oo I love a Southern man
To hold my door to hold my hand
Before he gets that kiss
It's in my blood it's in my veins
The way I talk in the way I pray
If I close my eyes on me right now
You can take the girl right out of the country
But the country stays running in my veins
Running in my veins
You might see me in NYC or California
But you best believe my heart and soul is still in Georgia
It's in my blood it's in my veins
The way I talk in the way I pray
If I close my eyes on me right now
You can take the girl right out of the country
But the country stays running in my veins
Running in my veins
Running in my veins
Running in my veins
Running in my veins
Running in my veins
Stays running in my veins
