Lyrics
My grandmother owned a nightclub on the arkansas-okahoma line Momma put me on a greyhound, and I went To stay with her in the summertime I'd box up those empty longnecks and stack'em in the back and make A hand Then at night she'd let me sneak out of the kitchen and sit in with the band Yes, I have sacked some quarterbacks and broke my share of bones along the way I knew it wouldnt Last forever, semi-pro always means semi-paid I started climbin' drillin' rig, im oil field trash and Proud as I can be Then I took my songs and guitar and sang'em to a man from tennesse
I've played every beer joint tavern from new york city out to pasadena Every corn dog fair and rodeo And sold out every basketball arena I like to get down with my boys in afghanistan and baghdad city Too I am a red, white and blue blood graduate of honkytonk u
A star can't burn forever, and the brightest ones will someday lose their shine But the glass wont Ever be half empty in my optimistic mind I'll still have a song to sing and a band to turn it up and Play it loud As long as there's a bar room with a corner stage and a honkytonk crowd
Ive played every beer joint tavern from new york city out to pasadena Every corn dog fair and rodeo And sold out ever basketball arena I like to get down with my boys in afghanistan and baghdad city Too Son im a red, white, and blue blood graduate of honkytonk u That's right a red, white, and blue Blood graduate of honkytonk u
