Well I was raised on country classics

Like Roy Acuff and George Jones

Lord I love'd to hear 'em
                                E7
Sing all them old time country songs
        A
But I really got excited

'bout the time I turned 15
            D7
That's the first time I heard Waylon

and old Bocephus sing
                A
They put some drive in their country
E                     A
That really turned me on

D7
Yea, put some drive in your country
                     A
Keep country drivin' on
          D7
When the music gets you movin'
B                      E
You know that can't be wrong
A
Everytime I hear that Outlaw stuff

On my car radio
     D7
It makes me wanna drive it

Just as fast as it will go
          A
Put some drive in your country
E                          A
Let's keep country drivin' on

A
We played some shows in Atlanta

On Sunday afternoons

The gigs were packed and I was nervous
                                E
Cause I wanted folks to like my tunes
                A
The crowds were full of younger people

They were all about my age
       D7
So I turned and told the band

Just before we walked on stage
          A
Put some drive in your country fellas
E                      A
We turned those people on

              D7
Yea put some drive in your country
                     A
Keep country drivin' on
          D7
When the music gets you dancin'
B                      E
You know that can't be wrong
A
See I made myself a promise

When I was just a kid
         D7
I'd mix southern rock and country

And that's just what I did
         A
Put some drive in your country
E                    A
Keep country drivin' on

HEY-YEA-YEA-YEA

(Instrumental Break)

          D7
Put some drive in your country
                              A
Hey let's keep country drivin on
          D7
When the music gets you movin'
B                      E
You know that can't be wrong
         A
I still love old country

I ain't tryin' to put it down
D7
Damn I miss Duanne Allman

I wish he was still around
          A
Put some drive in the country
E                    A
Keep country drivin' on
    D
HEY-YEA
          A
Put some drive in the country
E                          A
Let's keep country drivin' on

YEA-YEA-YEA-YEA
