I like watching the sun nComin' up in the morningnI like to start right in nWhere I know there's work to be donenI like to drive my pickup trucknI believe that God answers prayersnBut you make your own lucknAnd keepin' it simplenAnd keepin' it strongnI'm Country As The Day Is LongnnI like people who know nWhere to draw the linenWho can tell the differencenBetween the truth and a lienI like a guy who will stand and fightnWhen someone needs to do whats rightnAnd have the guts nTo admit when he's wrongnCause thats Country As The Day Is LongnnYou can find folksnExactly like menFrom Maine to CalifornianAnd all in betweennSome say we're a dying breednBut I don't think sonYeah fine folksnSalt of the earthnWho knows a man's bank account nAin't what he's worthnTrue as a country songnCountry As The Day Is LongnCountry As The Day Is Longnn(spoken) Alright now listen to menI like the smell of the rainnOn a dusty roadnAnd the feel of a shirtnThats been dried outside on the linenn
