              A
Got a little southern drawl in my talk
        D
Little pickup truck on my highway
              A
Got a little boot stomp in my walk
        D
Little neon lighting my Friday
          A
Got some Tennessee in my whiskey
         D7
Raise a cup up if you with me

Chorus:
       A
I was raised on Merle, raised on Willie
        D
Got my Honky Tonk attitude from Joe Diffie
 A
Daddy did too, it's family tradition
    D
If someone cranks it up, you can't help but listen
 A                         D
My upbringing sounds like George Strait singing
       A
And I gotta give props to the radio
                D                             A D
'Cause if you know me, I was raised on country

It's the only reason that I survived
Every breakup and every party
It's the soundtrack to my life
It runs deep in my DNA

Chorus:
I was raised on Merle, raised on Willie
Got my Honky Tonk attitude from Joe Diffie
Daddy did too, it's family tradition
If someone cranks it up, you can't help but listen
My upbringing sounds like George Strait singing
And I gotta give props to the radio
'Cause if you know me, I was raised on country
I was raised on country

 A
(Raised on country music)
          D7
Learned a lot about living and a little 'bout love
 A
(Raised on country music)
         D7
And you know that's something I'm so proud of

Chorus:
I was raised on Merle, raised on Willie
Got my Honky Tonk attitude from Joe Diffie
Daddy did too, it's family tradition
If someone cranks it up, you can't help but listen
My upbringing sounds like George Strait singing
And I gotta give props to the radio
'Cause if you know me, I was raised on country

(Raised on country music)
Yeah, I was raised on country
(Raised on country music)
I was raised on country
(Raised on country music)
