  • Man from the city tryin’ to take my rifle
    But there’s somethin’ that he needs to understand
    Second amendment’s only second to the Bible
    He’ll have to pull it out of my dead hands
    Yeah, he can have opinions
    I don’t have to agree with ‘em
    Ain’t nothin’ wrong with me and him bein’ different
    Oh no no, but I think that he should know know know
    How I roll

    I’m a survivor, you’re damn right I’m a fighter
    I’m a big buck skinnin’, trotline riggin’ Hank Jr disciple
    So don’t you be offended, what granddaddy defended
    This flag I’m wavin’ says I’m stayin’ free
    Don’t tread on me, no
    Don’t tread on me, no

    Man from the city tryin’ to take my corn field
    Turn it into a big high rise
    Make a buck, make some dough on a big deal
    But that’s where all my bucks and does hide
    Yeah, I get high enough
    Windmill and a pinch of snuff
    Don’t need your skyscraper, elevators, and all that stuff
    Oh no no, but I still think you should know know know
    How I roll

    I’m a survivor, you’re damn right I’m a fighter
    I’m a big buck skinnin’, trotline riggin’ Hank Jr disciple
    So don’t you be offended, what granddaddy defended
    This flag I’m wavin’ says I’m stayin’ free
    Don’t tread on me, no
    Don’t tread on me, no

    If you want it, if you want it, come and take it
    (Come on city boy)
    If you want it, if you want it, come and take it
    (Wanna see you try)
    If you want it, if you want it, come and take it
    (I don’t think you can)
    If you want it, come and take it

    I’m a survivor, you’re damn right I’m a fighter
    I’m a big buck skinnin’, trotline riggin’ Hank Jr disciple
    So don’t you be offended, what granddaddy defended
    This flag I’m wavin’ says I’m stayin’ free
    Don’t tread on me, no
    Don’t tread on me, no
