My grandma taught the golden rule
From inside of a one-room school
My grandpa drove an old farmall
So the corn could grow green and tall
You can throw a rock from sign to sign
But don’t think we’re left back in time
I learned all about life in a pair worn out boots
When you find your Sunnyside, you’ll find your roots
Friday nights could be found
An old stepside diggin’ some mud
Fat Daddy’s Shotgun hangin’ in the rack
Olé Applejack is the leader of the pack
Breaker breaker one nine
I’m at the branch in those pines
Triple-Tee you got a copy on me
Don’t judge until you’ve walked to the tree
Proud to be livin’...

Two black marks on a long street
A Super Sport that I bet you can’t beat
A blue eyed blonde from the flatwoods
Down on the Big Sandy it never felt so good
Sunday preachin’, dinner on the grounds
On the back row with the lost and found
We all feel so rich when we’re on that land
Cause it’s were our ancestors made their stand
Saturday nights could be found
Down on the river settin’ some lines
A mess of cat’s with too much to drank
Feels like money in the bank
But when you hear that guitar squall
Thoes foxes will be rockin’ the fur-shed wall
Hold on when the Georgia pines start to sway
Cause that piano is gonna play
Proud to be livin’...

We all have a different name, but we’re all the same
Doin’ the best we can with no one to blame
They call us country, hillbillies and rednecks
But I don’t care, you can’t cash their checks
All those big cities are just a waste of time
I seen a few, so be careful of the ladder you climb
No matter if you’re from a J, D, or a T-Ville
Never let that concrete change the way you feel
Just be proud you’re livin’...

Livin’ Unincorporated...
If you listen when the moon is full
You can hear that guitar squall
You’ll know the foxes are rockin’ the fur-shed wall Hold on when the Georgia pines start to sway Cause that piano is gonna play
Proud to be livin’...
