A Little More Country Than That

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Imagine a dirt road full of pot holes With a creek bank and some cane poles Catching channel cat I'm a little more country than that Picture a small town with an old hound Laying out front of the court house While the old men chew the fat I'm a little more country than that I just want to make sure you know just who you're getting under, this old hat Cause girl I'm not the kind of two time or play games behind your back I'm a little more country than that Think of a hank song from days gone With a steel ride that's so strong It sends chills up your back I'm a little more country than that If you want a brick home in a school zone With the doors locked and alarms on Girl, you're way off track I'm a little more country than that I just want to make sure you know just who you're getting under this old hat Cause girl I'm not the kind of two time or play games behind your back I'm a little more country than that Yeah, I'm sure that you've heard those three words from others But they fell flat But this ring ain't something that I mean to give you And then take back I'm a little more country than that I'm a little more country than that I'm a little more country than that
