Too Far Gone

Can't change the roots of my family tree
I'd never fit in your high society
Dinner at the club, white tablecloths
We're having fried catfish from uncle Jessie's pond

That Mercedes wouldn't last ten minutes in the mud
Like a 1987 Chevy pickup truck
Your mama gave you her mama's hand-me-down pearls
My mama gave me a half-smoked pack of Marlboro's

Ooh, ah, ah, ah, ooh, I'm too far gone
Come on, come on
I ain't no wine drinkin', smile fakin'
Spendin' daddy's money makin'
Everybody 'round me thinkin' they be livin' life all wrong
I'm country to the bone, I'm just too far gone
T-t-t-too far gone

You like a man dressed up in a three-piece suit
I'll take a Friday night flannel and some square toe boots
You're a rooftop, bar hop, sugar rim lemon drop
I'm a PBR sippin' two-steppin' in a honky-tonk

Ooh, ah, ah, ah, ooh, I'm too far gone
Come on, come on
I ain't no wine drinkin', smile fakin'
Spending daddy's money makin'
Everybody 'round me thinkin' they be livin' life all wrong
I'm country to the bone, I'm just too far gone, yeah

Don't care what you might think
I'm proud of what my mama raised

Ooh, ah, ah, ah, ooh, I'm too far gone
Come on, come on
I ain't no wine drinkin', smile fakin'
Spendin' daddy's money makin'
Everybody 'round me thinkin' they be livin' life all wrong
I'm country to the bone, I'm just too far gone, yeah
T-t-t-too far gone, yeah

Ooh, ah, ah, ah, ooh
Ooh, ah, ah, ah, ooh
