Come Back As A Country Boy - Blake Shelton

When I die, I wanna come back as a country boy

No, there ain't no better life if you ask me

If my neck don't come out red, then Lord, just keep me dead

'Cause a country boy's all that I know how to be

My back is always breakin', my dogs are always barkin'

My money has trouble makin' and my truck has trouble startin'

I'm up before the sun, either haulin' hay or huntin'

My work ain't ever done, but son, I wouldn't trade it for nothin'

So, when I die I wanna come back as a country boy

No, there ain't no better life if you ask me

If my neck don't come out red, then Lord, just keep me dead

'Cause a country boy's all that I know how to be

Yeah, if y'all ain't in my drawl and a fish ain't on my wall

And the whiskey don't burn goin' down

My feet ain't in a holler, and blue ain't on my collar

Leave my Hank-crankin', beer-drinkin' ass in the ground

Yeah, when I die I wanna come back as a country boy

No, there ain't no better life if you ask me

If my neck don't come out red, then Lord, just keep me dead

'Cause a country boy's all that I know how to be

When I die I wanna come back as a country boy

Live on this land like my old man did before me

I don't wanna be born into money, where the boots don't ever get muddy

'Cause a country boy's all that I know how to be

Yeah, when I die I wanna come back as a country boy

No, there ain't no better life if you ask me

If my neck don't come out red, then Lord, just keep me dead

'Cause a country boy's all that I know how to be

Yeah, a country boy's all that I know how to be
