Hillbilly Bone
Embrace Your Hillbilly Spirit: A Musical Journey to Country Roots
Lyrics
Oh man, you've gotta watch where you're stepping around here
Cautioning to be mindful of one's steps in the current environment.
Yeah I got a friend in New York City
Introducing a friend from New York City.
He's never heard of Connway Twitty
Not familiar with Conway Twitty, indicating a lack of knowledge about country music.
Don't know nothing about grits and greens
No knowledge of Southern food like grits and greens.
Never been south of Queens
Never traveled south of Queens, emphasizing a lack of Southern experience.
But he flew down here on a business trip
The friend visits on a business trip.
I took him honky tonkin' and that was it
Introduced the friend to honky-tonk music.
He took to it like a pig to mud, like a cow to cud
The friend embraced the Southern lifestyle enthusiastically.
We all got a hillbilly bone down deep inside
Expressing that everyone has a "hillbilly bone" within.
No matter where you from you just can't hide it
Emphasizing that one cannot hide their Southern roots.
And when the band starts banging and the fiddle saws
Describing the energetic response to country music.
You can't help but hollering, yee haw!
Expressing excitement with a traditional "yee haw!"
When you see them pretty little country queens
Appreciating attractive country women.
Man you gotta admit that's in them jeans
Acknowledging physical attributes with a positive tone.
Ain't nothing wrong, just getting on your
Continuation of praising the "hillbilly bone."
Hillbilly bone-ba-bone-ba-bone-bone
Repeating the catchy phrase "hillbilly bone."
Nah, you ain't gotta be born out in the sticks
Stating that one doesn't need a rural background to connect.
With an F-150 and a 30-06,
Listing rural elements (F-150, 30-06) as unnecessary for connection.
Or have a Bubba in the family tree
Not requiring a specific family background to relate.
To get on down with me
Encouraging an open mind for shared experiences.
Well yeah Bubba all you need is an open mind
Highlighting the importance of enthusiasm and passion.
If it fires you up you gotta let it shine
Encouraging embracing what feels right, even if unconventional.
When it feels so right that it can't be wrong
Emphasizing the importance of genuine feelings.
Come on, come on, come on you ain't alone, you ain't alone
Expressing solidarity and togetherness in shared experiences.
We all got a hillbilly bone down deep inside
Reiteration of the presence of a "hillbilly bone" in everyone.
No matter where you from you just can't hide
Affirmation that Southern roots are universally present.
And when the band starts banging and the fiddle saws
Describing the infectious joy of country music.
You can't help but hollering, yee haw!
Expression of excitement with the traditional "yee haw!"
When you see them pretty little country queens
Appreciating the attractiveness of country women.
Man you gotta admit that's in them jeans
Positive acknowledgment of physical attributes.
Ain't nothing wrong, just getting on your
Continuation of praising the "hillbilly bone."
Hillbilly bone-ba-bone-ba-bone-bone
Repeating the catchy phrase "hillbilly bone."
Come on y'all
Encouragement for everyone to join in the celebration.
We all got a hillbilly bone down deep inside
Reiteration of the presence of a "hillbilly bone" in everyone.
No matter where you from you just can't hide
Affirmation that Southern roots are universally present.
And when the band starts banging and the fiddle saws
Describing the infectious joy of country music.
You can't help but hollering, yee haw!
Expression of excitement with the traditional "yee haw!"
When you see them pretty little country queens
Appreciating the attractiveness of country women.
Man you gotta admit that's in them jeans
Positive acknowledgment of physical attributes.
Ain't nothing wrong, just getting on your
Continuation of praising the "hillbilly bone."
Hillbilly bone-ba-bone-ba-bone-bone
Repeating the catchy phrase "hillbilly bone."
Hillbilly bone ba-bone ba-bone bone
Repetition of the energetic "hillbilly bone" refrain.
Hillbilly bone ba-bone ba-bone bone
Final repetition of the energetic "hillbilly bone" refrain.
