They say heroes get remembered
But legends never die
Our forefathers stood for something
King Jesus and southern pride

Where I come from things haven't changed
We're still living in them good ole days

Well if you ain't bout the south, shut your mouth
You ain't got nothing to say
When them good ole boys bring the noise
Small town USA
We ain't got a life but we love what we got
And we always gon' keep it that way
If you ain't bout the south, shut your mouth
You ain't got nothing to say

There ain't no shame in getting dirty
There ain't no problem with clocking in till the 9 to 5
'Cause we're out in the backwoods on the weekends
And breaking in them Mickey Thompson's on a four-wheel drive

Hell, where I come from we do things right
Work all day and party all night

If you ain't bout the south, shut your mouth
You ain't got nothing to say
And them good ole boys bring the noise
Down in small town USA
We ain't got a life but we love what we got
And we always gon' keep it that way
If you ain't bout the south, shut your mouth
You ain't got nothing to say

If you don't like how we do things we don't care
And it's a different kinda world we're living down here
And before our meals we still say grace
And I'll probably tell you to your face

If you ain't bout the south, shut your mouth
You ain't got nothing to say
When them good ole boys bring the noise
Down in small town USA
We ain't got a life but we love what we got
And we always gon' keep it that way
And if you ain't bout the south, shut your mouth
You ain't got nothing to say
