Tough Town
That old hardware store's got 8 X 10s
In black and white from way back when
Folks still rode their horses into town
See hard work and dirt on blurry faces
And in color ain't much changed
Them buildings might be leanin'
Oh, but they ain't fallin' down
This is a tough town
It's all blood, sweat, and tears
This is some tough ground
If it don't rain, it don't grow here
We've been red, white, and blue collar
God and country all these years
If you see us turnin' up and burnin' down, we earned it, son
This is a tough town
This is a tough town
And we got outskirts full of old farmland
But there ain't a rock for sale
'Cause every inch has history to tell
Front porches full of rockin' chairs
Old folks and grandkids sittin' there
And that there's old school love
They're still old and calloused hands
This is a tough town
It's all blood, sweat, and tears
This is some tough ground
If it don't rain, it don't grow here
We've been red, white, and blue collar
God and country all these years
If you see us turnin' up and burnin' down, we earned it, son
This is a tough town
This is a tough town
We know all about the grapevine
Some folks love to talk
But if you want some of one of us
Just know you got us all
This is a tough town
Yeah, boy, this is a tough town
Hell yeah, this is a tough town
It's all blood, sweat, and tears
This is some tough ground
If it don't rain, it don't grow here
We've been red, white, and blue collar
God and country all these years
If you see us turnin' up and burnin' down, we earned it, son
This is a tough town
This is a tough town
This is a tough town
This is a tough ass town
In black and white from way back when
Folks still rode their horses into town
See hard work and dirt on blurry faces
And in color ain't much changed
Them buildings might be leanin'
Oh, but they ain't fallin' down
This is a tough town
It's all blood, sweat, and tears
This is some tough ground
If it don't rain, it don't grow here
We've been red, white, and blue collar
God and country all these years
If you see us turnin' up and burnin' down, we earned it, son
This is a tough town
This is a tough town
And we got outskirts full of old farmland
But there ain't a rock for sale
'Cause every inch has history to tell
Front porches full of rockin' chairs
Old folks and grandkids sittin' there
And that there's old school love
They're still old and calloused hands
This is a tough town
It's all blood, sweat, and tears
This is some tough ground
If it don't rain, it don't grow here
We've been red, white, and blue collar
God and country all these years
If you see us turnin' up and burnin' down, we earned it, son
This is a tough town
This is a tough town
We know all about the grapevine
Some folks love to talk
But if you want some of one of us
Just know you got us all
This is a tough town
Yeah, boy, this is a tough town
Hell yeah, this is a tough town
It's all blood, sweat, and tears
This is some tough ground
If it don't rain, it don't grow here
We've been red, white, and blue collar
God and country all these years
If you see us turnin' up and burnin' down, we earned it, son
This is a tough town
This is a tough town
This is a tough town
This is a tough ass town
