Cornbread

Cornbread in a cast iron

Mama's fried chicken cooking over a campfire

Little brother's throwing mud clods in their brother's eyes

That country truth it don't know how to lie

Best bed you ever laid in

Like the best motel you ever stayed in

Two youngins' in the hay making out

That's all you need to know

‘Cause ‘round home things move a little slower

We say yes ma'am and we say no sir

A real man he opens up the door

For any girl even if he don't know her

Around here you takin' up for your brother

Even when you know he ain't in the right

Here you're coming in like a redneck mother

Head first swinging haymakers left and right

Well that's all you need to know

‘Cause ‘round home things move a little slower

We say yes ma'am and we say no sir

A real man he opens up the door

For any girl even if he don't know her

The flag's flying on the front porch

Flies flying head first into the screen door

If you need a ride keys are in the floor board

Unless you can't work the clutch on an old Ford

That's all you need to know

‘Cause ‘round home things move a little slower

We say yes ma'am and we say no sir

A real man he opens up the door

For any girl even if he don't know her

When your only map is a sky full of stars

There ain't nothing like fishing in the dark

‘Cause ‘round home things move a little slower

We say yes ma'am and we say no sir

A real man he opens up the door

For any girl even if he don't know her
