We put the hell in the raisin', country in the station

    G               D
Good in them ol' good years

    G                            C

You can leave black marks barkin' down a two-lane

But man we did the same thing when it was just dirt

       G                      C                     Em
If you wanna put your name on a tank, it'll take a lotta paint

But your gonna have to cover mine first

And that bonfire spot y'all got

                  G                 D
I lit the first log out in that old field

              G                     C
You can be the guy that buys all the shine from me

Hell,   I'll help  build the steel

We put the rock in the roll, the roll in the stone

 G                    D
A whole lot of cold in beer

       G                     C
Put the shot in the sign, the all in the night

       G                          C
You can talk that talk, 'bout your young buck crew

         G                     D
'Fore you run your mouth and get knocked out your boots

     G                    C
Every word that you heard about me is damn true

       Em        D          G
Got the shirt and the tattoo too
