[Verse 1]
It ain't 'cause of my truck
It ain't 'cause of some George Strait song
Yeah these blue jeans might be ripped but that ain't how I bought 'em
It ain't 'cause of these boots
I'm sticking out like a damn sore thumb
Any time I'm anywhere but where I'm from
[Pre-Chorus]
Why can't city lights just feel like home?
I'll tell you if you really wanna know
[Chorus]
Why I gotta watch the sunrise
Job ain't ever done 'til it's done right
I'll tell you what makes me cry 'bout a steel guitar
And why I gotta work so hard
Why I'm always saying Amen
Just a beer away from a best friend
Why I gotta toss a line when I see a lake
And why I'm always praying for rain
You ask me why you are the way you are
I grew up on a farm
[Verse 2]
It's a bit of my grandpa
It's a buzz on a Friday night
And it might be a bit of a drive but just come on down and you'll see why
[Chorus]
Why I gotta watch the sunrise
Job ain't ever done 'til it's done right
I'll tell you what makes me cry 'bout a steel guitar
And why I gotta work so hard
Why I'm always saying Amen
Just a beer away from a best friend
Why I gotta toss a line when I see a lake
And why I'm always praying for rain
You ask me why you are the way you are
I grew up on a farm
[Bridge]
Oh, it's in my blood, it's in my bones
Oh, yeah it's all I've ever known
[Chorus]
I gotta watch the sunrise
A job ain't ever done 'til it's done right
And I got acres of reasons why
It's who I'll be 'til the day I die
I'll still be saying Amen
Just a beer away from a best friend
Why I gotta toss a line when I see a lake
And why I'm always praying for rain
You ask me why you are the way you are
Why I'm always thanking all my lucky stars
I grew up on a farm
It ain't 'cause of my truck
It ain't 'cause of some George Strait song
Yeah these blue jeans might be ripped but that ain't how I bought 'em
It ain't 'cause of these boots
I'm sticking out like a damn sore thumb
Any time I'm anywhere but where I'm from
[Pre-Chorus]
Why can't city lights just feel like home?
I'll tell you if you really wanna know
[Chorus]
Why I gotta watch the sunrise
Job ain't ever done 'til it's done right
I'll tell you what makes me cry 'bout a steel guitar
And why I gotta work so hard
Why I'm always saying Amen
Just a beer away from a best friend
Why I gotta toss a line when I see a lake
And why I'm always praying for rain
You ask me why you are the way you are
I grew up on a farm
[Verse 2]
It's a bit of my grandpa
It's a buzz on a Friday night
And it might be a bit of a drive but just come on down and you'll see why
[Chorus]
Why I gotta watch the sunrise
Job ain't ever done 'til it's done right
I'll tell you what makes me cry 'bout a steel guitar
And why I gotta work so hard
Why I'm always saying Amen
Just a beer away from a best friend
Why I gotta toss a line when I see a lake
And why I'm always praying for rain
You ask me why you are the way you are
I grew up on a farm
[Bridge]
Oh, it's in my blood, it's in my bones
Oh, yeah it's all I've ever known
[Chorus]
I gotta watch the sunrise
A job ain't ever done 'til it's done right
And I got acres of reasons why
It's who I'll be 'til the day I die

Why I gotta toss a line when I see a lake
And why I'm always praying for rain
You ask me why you are the way you are
Why I'm always thanking all my lucky stars
I grew up on a farm
