Wouldn’t Be a Country Boy Lyrics by Walker Montgomery

2021

[Verse 1]
If daddy would of took that job
Moved us on into the city
If mama didn't love magnolias
Didn't want to leave a view that pretty
Well, I don't think I'd sound the same
Standing here talking to you
I might have this old shirt tucked in
But I wouldn't have on these boots
[Chorus]
Wouldn't know all about red dirt living
Reelin' em' in on some old stren line
Wouldn't know all about what I've been missing
If I didn't see it with my own eyes
If I didn't grow up where the sun goes down
Miles away from all that noise
Ah, it would be been a shame
Could of been a lot of things
But I wouldn't be a country boy
Country boy
[Verse 2]
I still would of chased the girls
Try to steal a few midnight kisses
But it would've been under those city lights
Not under these stars by the river
And I might of went a little more rock and roll
When I picked up my guitar
Thank God I was digging' on some old Alabama
Or I never would of made it this far
[Chorus]
Wouldn't know all about red dirt living
Reelin' em' in on some old line stren line
Wouldn't know all about what I've been missing
If I didn't see if with my own eyes
If I didn't grow up where the sun goes down
Miles away from all that noise
Oh, it would be been a shame
Could of been a lot of things
But I wouldn't be a country boy
Country boy
[Bridge]
Still would of tore up a few good Friday nights (Friday nights)
Yeah, might of found a hole in the wall, little dive with some neon lights
I was tipping' that 'shine from a twist top jar
The light of a fire by a backroad barn
Well thank God that daddy didn't sell the farm
[Chorus]
Wouldn't know all about red dirt living
Reelin' em' in on some old stren line
Wouldn't know all about what I've been missing
If I didn't see if with my own eyes
If I didn't grow up where the sun goes down
Miles away from all that noise
Oh, it would be been a shame
Could of been a lot of things
But I wouldn't be a country boy
Oh, it would be been a shame
Could of been a lot of things
But I wouldn't be a country boy, country boy
I wouldn't be a country boy, no, no
