I grew up in the back of a '92 Ford
Daddy had cars on the lawn since the day I was born
Poor man sure got poor man ways
That piece of trash well that'll be all the rage
I never got much love but I learned how to live
I ain't afraid to swing a hammer like my daddy did
Always buy cheap and I always drive fast
I never swing first but I always swing last
So if I'm mean I get it from my mama
If I'm green I'll just call my old man
Got these strings and a little marijuana
I was raised on the border of the Northern Chihuahuan
It's a hard living but they did it
I'm still learning how to fit in
With the folks round here sitting talking bout the business
Cause this ain't the business we're in
This ain't the business we're in
And I grew up in a house where the ground caved in
Crude goes out and a rich man wins
Everybody round here got a past a little checkered
And all my exes look like they got a record
So if I'm mean I get it from my mama
If I'm green I'll just call my old man
Got these strings and a little marijuana
I was raised on the border of the Northern Chihuahuan
It's a hard living but they did it
I'm still learning how to fit in
With the folks round here sitting talking bout the business
Cause this ain't the business we're in
This ain't the business we're in
And I wish I was just a little more Nashville
Put me in a little skirt
Put me on a big bill
Wish I had a little money in the bank
Wish I had a little weight to my name
I was born with my daddy's pride
But I look like my mama so they let it slide
Ain't gotta say much if you look real nice
But I got my mama's rage inside
So if I'm mean I get it from my mama
If I'm green I'll just call my old man
Got these strings and a little marijuana
I was raised on the border of the Northern Chihuahuan
It's a hard living but they did it
I'm still learning how to fit in
With the folks round here sitting talking bout the business
Cause this ain't the business we're in
This ain't the business we're in
This ain't the business we're in
