The Way I Talk

It's got a touch of the town where I grew up
 Something in it, them California girls love
 Some people like to make a little fun of
 The way I talk
 It gets slower after three or four cold beers
 And gets louder when I'm cheering on the Volunteers
 Folks know I'm country, when they hear
 The way I talk
 It sounds a little bit like my daddy
 It don't cuss around my mama
 Got some words you've never heard
 'Less you come from down yonder
 The man upstairs gets it
 So I ain't tryna fix it
 No, I can't hide it
 I don't fight it, I just roll with it
 Oh, kinda slow like the Mississippi rolls
 It's the only way I know
 Man, it ain't my fault
 I just live the way I talk
 ♪
 Yeah it's, Yes sir, no ma'am, y'all come back, now
 Fighting words if you run my last name down
 I ain't ashamed, matter of fact, I'm damn proud
 Of the way I talk, y'all
 It sounds a little bit like my daddy
 It don't cuss around my mama
 Got some words you've never heard
 'Less you come from down yonder
 The man upstairs gets it
 So I ain't tryna fix it
 No I can't hide it
 I don't fight it, I just roll with it
 Oh, kinda slow like the Mississippi rolls
 It's the only way I know
 Man it ain't my fault
 I just live the way I talk

 Slow, like a Sunday morning service back home
 And kinda sweet when I got a girl to love on
 If you know me, you know
 I sound a little bit like my daddy
 I don't cuss around my mama
 Got some words you've never heard
 'Less you come from down yonder
 The man upstairs gets it
 So I ain't tryna fix it
 No I can't hide it
 I don't fight it, I just roll with it
 Oh, kinda slow like the Mississippi rolls
 It's the only way I know
 Man it ain't my fault
 I just live the way I talk
