Raised Up Right
When Momma used my full name, I knew she meant business
I learned to say, "Yes sir" from the first time that I didn't
I've felt that bible belt and I know what soap tastes like
I've done my share of wrong, but I was raised up right
And I figured out that midnight ain't the same as 12:03
You can't go on a date when your Daddy's got your keys
There's cocaine in your sock drawer will keep you home on Friday nights
I've learned a lot the hard way, 'cause I was raised up right
Raised up right like my Momma's hands in Sunday mornin' church
Raised up right like my Daddy's can of beer right after work
Like the flag over the court house every mornin' at sunrise
I was raised up right
That Zebco taught me patience, castin' from the bank
And I learned what country music was when Grandpa played me, Hank
A handshake don't mean nothin' if you don't look 'em in the eye
Hard work will make a boy a man
Yeah, I was raised up right
Raised up right like my Momma's hands in Sunday mornin' church
Raised up right like my Daddy's can of beer right after work
Like the flag over the court house every mornin' at sunrise
I was raised up right
When they pulled me from that water on the day I got baptized
I was raised up
I was
Raised up right like my Momma's hands in Sunday mornin' church
Raised up right like my Daddy's can of beer right after work
Like the flag over the court house every mornin' at sunrise
I was raised up right
I was raised up right
I was raised, raised up right
Raised up right
I learned to say, "Yes sir" from the first time that I didn't
I've felt that bible belt and I know what soap tastes like
I've done my share of wrong, but I was raised up right
And I figured out that midnight ain't the same as 12:03
You can't go on a date when your Daddy's got your keys
There's cocaine in your sock drawer will keep you home on Friday nights
I've learned a lot the hard way, 'cause I was raised up right
Raised up right like my Momma's hands in Sunday mornin' church
Raised up right like my Daddy's can of beer right after work
Like the flag over the court house every mornin' at sunrise
I was raised up right
That Zebco taught me patience, castin' from the bank
And I learned what country music was when Grandpa played me, Hank
A handshake don't mean nothin' if you don't look 'em in the eye
Hard work will make a boy a man
Yeah, I was raised up right
Raised up right like my Momma's hands in Sunday mornin' church
Raised up right like my Daddy's can of beer right after work
Like the flag over the court house every mornin' at sunrise
I was raised up right
When they pulled me from that water on the day I got baptized
I was raised up
I was
Raised up right like my Momma's hands in Sunday mornin' church
Raised up right like my Daddy's can of beer right after work
Like the flag over the court house every mornin' at sunrise
I was raised up right
I was raised up right
I was raised, raised up right
Raised up right
