Born & Raised 歌词

There's an alligator in that tank Where my papa fished nearly everyday He said it got his dog back in '82 I never saw the gator but I guess its true Well maybe that's a small town thing My daddy had a story sounded just the same We'd buy minnows nearly every week with cane poles in his jeep You're like me, Texas queen, I knew it from the start 'Cause you drank whiskey like a fountain of youth Had a tap straight to that bar Well you don't say, what's your name? I loved you all the same 'Cause you reminded me of where I was born and raised Yeah, I reminded you of where you was born and raised There's a live oak at our farm Lost a hundred year battle to a lightning storm That's the only time I've ever see my grandpa cry He never shed a tear when his brother died I swear it's like I'm kin to you Every story you tell me sounds like my youth I bet you got an uncle who always sings I bet you got a kiss that tastes just like sweet tea Texas queen, I loved you from the start 'Cause you drank whiskey like a fountain of youth Had a tap straight to that bar Well you don't say, what's your name? I loved you all the same 'Cause you reminded me of where I was born and raised Yeah, I reminded you of where you was born and raised I know you've had others, try to put a ring on you 'Cause you're still wild, tough as tobacco that the devil himself won't chew There's no rhyme or reason why we choose to live this way When you're rambling boots have seen their final day Remember me, Texas queen Picture us together on a front porch swing We could play cards every Friday night Smoke a little smoke till we feel alright Well I may call your way, I loved you all the same 'Cause you reminded me of where I was born and raised Yeah, I reminded you of where you was born and raised Yeah, you reminded me of where I was born and raised
