Lyrics
Original
[EVANS:]
Woo
Oh, ohh, oh
She's a map dot with a welcome sign
She's a truck stop, cherry coke with ice
Still repping that Bobcat pride
Still calling from an 865
She's a ragtop on a hand-me-down Jeep
She's a flat rock skipping 'cross a creek
She's waffles with the chicken fried
Hungover from a neon Friday night
And she takes that small town
Everywhere she goes now
Singing George Strait down Fifth Avenue
Rodeo Drive in her cowboy boots
Palm trees shading them southern roots
Hotter than a ring of fire
She's a black dress baby with a blue jean heart
Dirty martini in a mason jar
Honky-tonk angel on a rooftop bar
Spinning like a rope swing tire
Oh, and she might leave
But she takes Tennessee all round the world
Nah, you can't take the country outta my girl
Nah
She's a flip cup hall of fame
She's a marshmallow on a wire coat hanger
Put your cuffs, hit the ref or the dad
She'll bless your heart when she's mad
From BNA to JFK to LAX, yeah she's
Singing George Strait down Fifth Avenue
Rodeo Drive in her cowboy boots
Palm trees shading them southern roots
Hotter than a ring of fire
She's a black dress baby with a blue jean heart
Dirty martini in a mason jar
Honky-tonk angel on a rooftop bar
Spinning like a rope swing tire
Oh, and she might leave
But she takes Tennessee all round the world
Nah, you can't take the country outta my girl
Yeah, you can't take the country
Oh, ohh
And she takes that small town
Everywhere she goes now
Singing George Strait down Fifth Avenue
Rodeo Drive in her cowboy boots
Palm trees shading them southern roots
Hotter than a ring of fire
She's a black dress baby with a blue jean heart
Dirty martini in a mason jar
Honky-tonk angel on a rooftop bar
Spinning like a rope swing tire
Oh, and she might leave
But she takes Tennessee all round the world
Nah, you can't take the country outta my girl
Can't take the country outta my girl, oh, ohh
You can take the girl outta the country (girl outta the country)
But you can't take the country outta my
Girl outta the country (girl outta the country)
You can't take the country outta my girl
[CUOMO:]
I hear you man
But let me tell you 'bout my city girl
She's a dumpling with a tofu fried
She's an Xbox on a friday night
She doesn't give a damn about sports
Not getting in your 4x4
From LAX, to BNA
Every day, yeah, she's singing
Kurt Cobain down country roads
Sunday school in her fishnet hose
Lace fan hidin' the ring in her nose
Hotter than a ring of fire
She's an overalls baby in her Creeper sneaks
Whiskey hip flask but mugicha tea
Anime girl at the old swap meet
Burnin' like a vampire
Oh and she might scare
But she takes LA around the world
No, you can't take the city out of my girl
Yeah
Can't take the city, no no no
And she takes that iPhone
Everywhere she goes now
[EVANS:]
(Heh, at least they got that in common)
Singing George Strait down Fifth Avenue
Rodeo Drive in her cowboy boots
Palm trees shading them southern roots
Hotter than a ring of fire
She's a black dress baby with a blue jean heart
Dirty martini in a mason jar
Honky-tonk angel on a rooftop bar
Spinning like a rope swing tire
Oh, and she might leave
But she takes Tennessee all round the world
No, you can't take the country outta my girl
Can't take the country outta my girl, oh-ohh
You can take the girl outta the country
But you can't take the country outta my
Girl outta the country
You can't take the country outta my girl
