Intro: try playing with swapping between E and A and using hammers.


E
Yellow blue bird on a red clay road, kickin' up a cloud of dust.

E
Burned into my memory like an Arkansas summer sun.

E
Last day of school, kick off your shoes, gonna grab up a fishin' pole.

E
Every boy and girl in this part of the county gonna meet at the swimmin' hole.


A                             E
I'm a dirt road kid, and I'm proud of it.

B                                                 A
And if you ask me, that's the way everybody 'oughta live.

A                             E
I'm a country boy, born to hunt and fish.

B                                                   A
Raised way out yonder, it ain't no wonder, I'm a dirt road kid.



E
If I show up at your party in my muddy boots, don't get bent outta shape.


Drank a little too much, gettin' loud and rowdy, an' get up in your face.


But by the end of the night you'll be a friend of mine and I'll even let you drive my truck.


Show you how to pull it out with a winch when you're stuck to the axel studs.

I'm a dirt road kid, and I'm proud of it.

B
When the show is over and the lights go down,


don't look for me out on the town,

            A           E
there's just one place I'll be found.

A                                E
I'm a dirt road kid, hell I'm proud of it.

B                                                A
