Crank it Where she grew up there ain't no roads Out in the sticks where the ginsing grows She float down the river to get to school Then her daddy come get her on a ole pack mule She runs back and forth from shed to shack Checking on the moonshine brewing out back If you don't get the picture by now Then wait a minute (Chorus) She got a bible, she's born again She got a shotgun, she ain't afraid of sin She's got rebel rising routy friends singing oohhh ohh ohhh She got a Trans Am with a trailer hitch She got horses, cows, and Dixie Chicks She goes honky tonking just for kicks If that ain't country I, don't, know, what, is She plant 50 acres, the seed in the hole Come fall you get lost in the tall corns rows Don't need know phone where she come from She just holler from the mountain and the boys all run... fast You might see her truck rolling out of the woods With a 12 point buck laid across the hood If you don't get the picture by now Then wait a minute Chrous If you don't get the picture by now Then wait a minute Chrous I don't know what is I don't know what I don't know what is
