It ain't about the dance, when a pretty girl's in your hands
Swayin' back and forth, on a hard wood floor,
Nah it's a hell of a whole lot more
It wasn't bout the fish, when I was just a cane pole kid
Drownin' worms on a line, by my granddaddy's side,
Hell we never even got a bite
But it ain't about the beer, it's what you drink to
Ain't about the road, it's where it leads to
It ain't about the buckle it's the ride,
It ain't about the smoke it's the high
Ain't about the boots it's the miles you put on 'em
Ain't about your roots, it's the ground where they growin'
Don't take too long round here to figure out, what country's all about
It ain't about the flag, when you see me takin off my hat
It's the women and the men who would to it all again,
To keep it flyin' up there like that
'Cause it ain't about the beer, it's what you drink to
Ain't about the road, it's where it leads to
It ain't about the buckle it's the ride,
It ain't about the smoke it's the high
Ain't about the boots it's the miles you put on 'em
Ain't about your roots, it's the ground where they growin'
Don't take too long round here to figure out, what country's all about
It ain't the small, it's the town, it ain't the game, it's the crowd
It ain't the church pew, it's the lost soul getting' found
It ain't about the beer, it's what you drink to
Ain't about the road, it's where it leads too
It ain't about the buckle it's the ride,
It ain't about the smoke it's the high
Ain't about the boots it's the miles you put on 'em
Ain't about your roots, it's the ground where they growin'
Don't take too long round here to figure out, what country's all about
What Country's All About
