Hey, cowboy 
                                                        A 
You been throwing that rope, playing them shows, making Texas noise 
A 
Got country back on mainstream 
E 
Hey mountain man 
                                           A 
You been gone singing them songs with your wild-card band 
A 
Selling out every seat 
            
Let's slow down them highway wheels 

Find a honky tonk to kill

           A                              E 
Let's load up some silver bullets, saddle up some old barstools 
A                             
Set our sights on 2 a.m. and let the rowdy cut loose 
   A                                                             
Forget all of our problems, take that corner quarter jukebox to school 
D                 A                    E 
Crank up a little possum and shoot the bull 
 


[Verso 2]
 
E 
Man, tell me 'bout them gold-plated buckles and tattooed knuckles 
A 
Well, buddy they're about first place and family 
    E                                                                             A 
And while we're at it, tell me 'bout moonshine running and big deer hunting up in Appalachia 
A 
You'd have to see it to believe 
       
Kinda makes me want a drink

               E 
How 'bout that Mossy Oak? 
E 
How 'bout that Resistol hat? 
     A 
Them red, white, and blue boys and girls over there kicking ass? 
       
Yeah, come on, raise a glass
