Introduction: D Em7
D
It's got a touch of the town where I grew up
Em7
Something in it them California girls love
D
Some people like to make a little fun of
Em7
The way I talk
D
It gets slower after three or four cold beers
Em7
And gets louder when I'm cheerin' on the Volunteers
D
Folks know I'm country, when they hear
Em7
The way I talk
D
It sounds a little bit like my daddy
I don't cuss around my mama
A
Got some words you've never heard
'Less you come from down yonder
Bm
The man upstairs gets it
So I ain't tryna fix it
G
No I can't hide it
I don't fight it, I just roll with it
D A
Oh, kinda slow like the Mississippi rolls
Bm
It's the only way I know
G
Man it ain't my fault
I just live the way I talk
D
Yeah it's, "Yessir, no ma'am, y'all come back, now"
Em7
Fighting words if you run my last name down
D
I ain't ashamed, matter of fact I'm damn proud
Em7
Of the way I talk, y'all
D
It sounds a little bit like my daddy
I don't cuss around my mama
A
Got some words you've never heard
'Less you come from down yonder
Bm
The man upstairs gets it
So I ain't tryna fix it
G
No I can't hide it
I don't fight it, I just roll with it
D A
Oh, kinda slow like the Mississippi rolls
Bm
It's the only way I know
G
Man it ain't my fault
I just live the way I talk
D A
Slow, like a Sunday morning service back home
Em7
And kinda sweet when I got a girl to love on
G
If you know me, you know
D
I sound a little bit like my daddy
I don't cuss around my mama
A
Got some words you've never heard
'Less you come from down yonder
Bm
The man upstairs gets it
So I ain't tryna fix it
G
No I can't hide it
I don't fight it, I just roll with it
D A
Oh, kinda slow like the Mississippi rolls
Bm
It's the only way I know
G
Man it ain't my fault
D
I just live the way I talk
