Lyrics
ROPED & TIED
They tried to raise me in the city
They tried to rear me cut & dried
But cha know I found my way back to those dirt roads
'cause Country had me roped & tied.
They said ya gotta talk just right, boy (girl)
They said ya gotta wear a suit
But I always cuss 'n use those gosh-dang slang words
and I wear jeans with my good ole mud slingin' boots.
Well, I traded in my Porsche
for one a them pick up trucks
Traded my poodle for a horse,
the kind that kicks and bucks
I'll never try ta make ya like me,
but I'll help ya if I can
I've come a long way from city boy (girl)
to Country Man (Woh-man)
I say I'm proud of what I am.
They tried to raise me in the city
They tried to rear me cut & dried
But cha know I found my way back to those dirt roads
'cause Country had me roped & tied.
They tried to trim me prim & pretty
They tried to take me for a ride
But cha know I found my way back to those dirt roads
'cause Country had me roped & tied.
