  • Bunch of buddies in John Deere hats
    A little crazy but they got my back
    Know every roll-through stop sign like the back of my hand
    And every bank where the fish'll bite
    Still like putting a smile on the face
    Of a girl I've known since the second grade
    Got a kiss that's sweet like lemonade
    She's everything I'll ever need
    Another reason I'll never leave

    Born here, live here, die here
    From the roots, to the boots, to the lay me down suit
    Yeah, I'm gonna be proud to be right here
    Just like my daddy, and his daddy did too
    Ride the same roads, work the same dirt
    Go to the same church and drink the same beer
    Born here, live here, die here
    Yeah

    Everybody's gotta find their place
    Some dreams you catch, some dreams you chase
    Some people run and some people stay
    Me, I'll always be

    A born here, live here, die here
    From the roots, to the boots, to the lay me down suit
    Yeah, I'm gonna be proud to be right here
    Just like my daddy, and his daddy did too
    Ride the same roads, work the same dirt
    Go to the same church and drink the same beer
    Born here, live here, die here
    Yeah

    I'm gonna raise one up in the air tonight
    For all the folks like me

    Here's to the born here, live here, die here
    From the roots, to the boots, to the lay me down suit
    Yeah, I'm gonna be proud to be right here
    Just like my daddy and his daddy did too
    We ride the same roads, work the same dirt
    Go to the same church and drink the same beer

    Born here, live here, die here
    Born here, live here, die here
    Born here, live here, die here (die here)
    Yeah

    Born here, live here, die here
    I'll be right here Writer/s: Jake Mitchell, Jameson J. Rodgers, Josh Thompson
