(Verse 1)
Small (G)town, y’all town, double dutch in the park
Ice (F)cream truck failing that (C)emissions test hard
Got that (G)blow up Grinch in the yard and it’s March
Ain’t (F)coming down anytime (C)soon
Y’all, them nursing (G)homes still rattling with some Dolly Parton
And them (F)high school kids traveling (C)like James Harden
In them (G)white limousines to the Olive Garden
On (F)prom night, it’s good times, right
(Chorus)
We be livin’ that (G)y’all life, y’all, rollin’ in the South
Where it’s (F)all football and (C)Jesus (Jesus)
Barbershop (G)talking like nah
Shut your mouth, my (F)mama’s sweet tea’s the (C)sweetest
Turn that bass (G)up, shawty, show ’em how
Y’all, we raise (F)up and, y’all, we goin’ (C)down, down, baby
(G)Yo’ street in my Bronco, I’ma talk to ya real (F)slo (C)
Said where the crawdads (G)crawl
Said living that y’all life, (F)y’all (Y’all life, y’all)

(Verse 2)
Y’all all them (G)dads tell them boys, “Son, walk it off”
Y’all all them (F)mamas tell them girls, “Better (C)keep your legs crossed”
All them (G)hands in the stands praying for the coin toss
Lord (F)please, “We want the ball at the half”
Say y’all, it’s (G)all about a dub and a dirt road
And a-(F)men in a church on the (G)third row
With your (G)arm around your girl like a fur coat
On a (F)Sunday, come Monday
(Chorus)
We be livin’ that (G)y’all life, y’all, rollin’ in the South
Where it’s (F)all football and (C)Jesus (Jesus)
Barbershop (G)talking like nah
Shut your mouth, my (F)mama’s sweet tea’s the (C)sweetest
Turn that bass (G)up, shawty, show ’em how
Y’all, we raise (F)up and, y’all, we goin’ (C)down, down, baby
(G)Yo’ street in my Bronco, I’ma talk to ya real (F)slow (C)
Said where the crawdads (G)crawl
Said living that y’all life, (F)y’all (Y’all life, y’all)

Down in (F)‘Bama where they grammar got some (C)country in it, y’all

But a (G)chicken wing, nah

(Chorus)
We be livin’ that (G)y’all life, y’all, rollin’ in the South
