Lyrics
COUNTRY DNA - Miller/Warren, 2008, 610-420-9388
She goes down to visit Grandma On the farm in Alabama
Every summer since she was 9
Something in her comes alive , On that southbound drive
Past the Mason Dixon line
She trades her Prada shoes and Armani suits
For jeans and a pair of low heeled boots
She don't worry bout her nails while she's bailing hay
Chorus:
That city girl's got country DNA , Part of her world, that's why she can rock that way
She's got an American flag tattoo
Shouts the loudest amen from the front church pew
After Saturday night, when she shoots JACK whiskey straight
That city girl's got country DNA
Leavin Grandma's always hard , She hates packing up her car
For that long ride home northeast
As everybody waves goodbye , She smiles while she cries
She'll miss that Southern hospitality
On the interstate about 10 miles gone
A tail-gaitin New York plate just cut her off
She decided then and there to turn around and stay
Chorus:
That city girl's got country DNA
Part of her world, that's why she can rock that way
She dances with the soldiers home on leave
She's the only one with Grandma's secret recipe
Before every meal she bows her head to pray
That city girl's got country DNA
Instrumental that is the first two lines of the prechorus
Then:
She loves Gd, her family, and the good ole USA
That city girl's got country DNA
repeat chorus
