Lyrics
[Intro]
Alright
"Family Business," take three
[Instrumental]
I grew up in the back of a '92 Ford
Daddy had cars on the lawn since the day I was born
Poor man sure got poor man ways
Now that piece of trash turned out to be all the rage
I never got much love, but I learned how to live
I ain't afraid to swing a hammer like my daddy did
Always buy cheap and I always drive fast
I never swing first, but I'll always swing last
[Chorus]
So if I'm mean, I get it from my mama
If I'm green, I'll just call my old man
Got these strings and a little marijuana
I's raised on the border of the Northern Chihuahuan
It's a hard living, but they did it, I'm still learning how to fit in
With the folks 'round here, sittin', talkin' 'bout the business
'Cause this ain't the business we're in
Woah, woah, woah
This ain't the business we're in
[Instrumental]
I grew up in a house where the ground caved in
Crude goes out and a rich man wins
Nobody 'round here got a past a little checkered
And all my exes look like they got a record
[Chorus]
So if I'm mean, I get it from my mama
If I'm green, I'll just call my old man
Got these strings and a little marijuana
I's raised on the border of the Northern Chihuahuan
It's a hard living, but they did it, I'm still learning how to fit in
With the folks 'round here, sittin', talkin' 'bout the business
'Cause this ain't the business we're in
Woah, woah, woah
This ain't the business we're in
[Instrumental]
And I wish I was just a little more Nashville
Put me in a little skirt, put me on a big bill
Wish I had a little money in the bank
Wish I had a little weight to my name
I was born with my daddy's pride
But I look like my mama, so they let it slide
Gotta say much if you look real nice
But I got my mama's rage inside
[Chorus]
So if I'm mean, I get it from my mama
If I'm green, I'll just call my old man
Got these strings and a little marijuana
I's raised on the border of the Northern Chihuahuan
It's a hard living, but they did it, I'm still learning how to fit in
With the folks 'round here, sittin', talkin' 'bout the business
'Cause this ain't the business we're in
Woah, woah, woah
This ain't the business we're in
[Outro]
This ain't the business we're in
