In My Veins Lyrics

Where I come from they're good at raisin'
Their hands on Sunday, drinks up high and a bunch of babies
Everybody knows, everybody's business
Like who got drunk, who got fired, and who's been kissin'

18 years old, I hit the road, didn't plan on lookin' back
But you don't leave with roots that deep no matter where you're at

It's in my blood, it's in my veins
The way I talk and the way I pray
If I close my eyes, I'm there right now
You can take the girl out of the country
But the country stays runnin' in my veins
Runnin' in my veins

For a little while, I can tone it down
But a couple drinks or a call from Mama brings it out
I'ma sucker for a romance, ooh, I love a southern man
Hold my door and hold my hand before he gets that kiss

It's in my blood, it's in my veins
The way I talk and the way I pray
If I close my eyes, I'm there right now
You can take the girl out of the country
But the country stays runnin' in my veins
Runnin' in my veins

You might see me in NYC or California
But you best believe my heart is always still in Georgia

It's in my blood, it's in my veins
The way I talk and the way I pray
If I close my eyes, I'm there right now
You can take the girl out of the country
But the country stays runnin' in my veins
Runnin' in my veins

It's runnin' in my veins
Oh, it's runnin' in my veins, baby
It's runnin' in my veins
Ooh, it's runnin' in my veins
Baby, it's runnin' in my veins
