There ain't nothin' better than the boys from back home I turned 18 and ran off and left everything I'd ever known Tried to find a better life, I'm chasin' crazy dreams But no matter where I go it'll never Be the same as the boys from back home Drinkin beer in the muddy brown Water, talkin' 'bout who's moms hotter and Paddlin' down the Ninnescah River, pushin' each other in Goin' down to the south bridge, just a bunch of us country kids Tryin' to get the freshman girls to flash a lil' bit a skin Me and the boys from back home There ain't no place that I'd rather be Than with a bunch of young rednecks just like me Always be proud of where I come from, Know who to call when I'm down to drink somethin', The boys from back home Countin' down to graduation, it seemed like it'd take forever And little did we know, it'd be the last time we'd all be together Hats off to the man overseas, fightin' battles for you and me Lord know's he'll always be one of the boys from back home There ain't no place that I'd rather be Than with a bunch of young rednecks just like me Always be proud of where I come from, Know who to call when I'm down to drink somethin', The boys from back home We all know how to make each other smile And talkin' 'bout the good ole days Is always worth our while yeah yeah Say if you're with the boys from back home Raise your glass and take a drink And be proud of where y'all come from No there ain't nothin' better than the boys from back home
