Lyrics

[Intro]

From Cape Town to Sydney to Nashville, Tennessee

I'm proud to say that country is for me (Hey!)

[Verse 1]

Here's to campfire stories

Here's to hometown glory

Yeah, it's like Grandad told me

Just don't forget where you come from (Come on)

Dis my vellies op die grondpad

Yeah, man, it's the tires on my old truck

En nes ek uitkyk op die vlaktes

That's when I know that I belong

[Chorus]

Yeah, I love this life, it's all I need

So God bless this land, my friends and family

From Cape Town to Sydney to Nashville, Tennessee

I'm proud to say that country is for me (Hey!)

[PostChorus]

I'm proud to say that country is for me

[Verse 2]

Here's to backroad sunsets

A little more space, a little less stress

Yeah, it's kicking back with a cold beer and my friends

No, it don't get much better than this (Ah, it don't)

[Chorus]

Damn, I love this life, it's all I need

So God bless this land, my friends and family

From Cape Town to Sydney to Nashville, Tennessee

I'm proud to say that country is for me (Hey!)

[PostChorus]

(Ah, yeah)

(Haha, let's go!)

I'm proud to say that country is for me

[Bridge]

No, it don't matter where you're from

If you're just like us

Little hometown country proud

Raise 'em on up (Get 'em up)

[Chorus]

We love this life, it's all we need

So God bless this land, my friends and family

From Cape Town to Sydney to Nashville, Tennessee

I'm proud to say that country is for me

[Chorus]

I love this life, it's all I need

So God bless this land, my friends and family

From Cape Town to Sydney to Nashville, Tennessee

I'm proud to say that country is for me (Hey!)

[Outro]

Oh, from Cape Town to Sydney to Nashville, Tennessee

Nkosi Sikelel'

Country is for me
