Better Think Twice Before Bringing A Country Boy Down

verse 1

He grew up where the dirt roads run

Where a hard day's work ain't never done

Got a little dust underneath his boots

And a heart that's loyal, strong and true

He doesn't go looking for a fight

But he won't back down when he knows he's right

So, if you're thinking you're gonna cross that line

You better listen to me one more time

chorus

Better think twice before bringing a country boy down

He may be quiet, but he'll stand his ground

He's been through storms that could shake this town

And every time he fell, he came back around

You can test his patience, you can push him to far

But don't mistake his kindness for weakness of heart

If you're fixing to turn his whole world upside down

Better think twice before bringing a country boy down

verse 2

He learned from is daddy how to keep his word

That's a man's reputation and it's something that's earned

He'll give you his hand, he'll give you his trust

But break that promise and you've broken too much

He's got his mama's heart and his daddy's pride

A little bit of fire that he keeps inside

He'd rather walk away that drag somebody down

But don't expect him to stay on the ground

chorus

Better think twice before bringing a country boy down

He may be quiet, but he'll stand his ground

He's been through storms that could shake this town

And every time he fell, he came back around

You can test his patience, you can push him to far

But don't mistake his kindness for weakness of heart

If you're fixing to turn his whole world upside down

Better think twice before bringing a country boy down

bridge

He's got a little red dirt running through his veins

A memory of home in the pouring rain

You can take him far from that hometown sky

But you can't take the country out of that guy

final chorus

So better think twice before bringing a country boy down

He's stronger than he looks when nobody's around

He's gonna pick up the pieces, he's gonna stand tall

And when the dust settles, he'll outlast it all

You can try to break him, you can try to steal his crown

But he'll rise like the sun when you think he's down

So, if you're fixing to turn his whole world upside down

Better think twice before bringing a country boy down

outro

Yeah, he's been raised on faith, hard work and pride-

You better think twice before you step across the line
