Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wear a greasy ball cap
I like my shirt untucked
I spend Saturdays workin’ on my truck
I don’t like to fight
But I ain’t scared to bleed
Most don’t mess with a guy like me
[Chorus]
’Cause guys like me drink too many beers
On Friday after work
Our best blue jeans have Skoal rings
We wear our boots to church
So rough around the edges, it’s hard to believe
That girls like you love guys like me
[Verse 2]
Your daddy worked at the bank
Mine worked on cars
You went to college, I pulled graveyard
You must have had your pick
Of all the trust-fund types
But you came back to me and only God knows why
[Chorus]
’Cause guys like me drink too many beers
On Friday after work
Our best blue jeans have Skoal rings
We wear our boots to church
So rough around the edges, it’s hard to believe
That girls like you love guys like me, yeah
[Outro]
Now there’s a lot of guys like me out there
In a lot of little towns
Tellin’ all our buddies we won’t ever settle down
We say that’s just the way we are
And the way we’ll always be
So God sends girls like you for guys like me
Thank God there’s girls like you
For guys like me
