Lee Brice Country Nowadays Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I just wanna catch my fish, drive my truck, drink my beer
And not wake up to all this stuff I don't want to hear
Like the same kind of gun I hunt with, just killed another man
When the only thing mine ever shot was a deer from my deer stand
I just want to grow my corn, feed my dogs, wear my boots
Not turn the TV on, sit and watch the evenin' news
And be told if I tell my own daughter that little boys ain't little girls
I'll be up the creek in hot water in this "cancel your ass" world

[Chorus]
It ain't easy being country in this country nowadays
The direction the fingers point when everything goes up in flames
Sayin' I'm some right-wing devil 'cause I was small town, Jеsus raised
It ain't easy being country in this country nowadays

[Verse 2]
I just wanna cut my grass, watch my gamе, say my prayers
Not get a picture of a flag up in flames as people cheer
Yeah, the same one my grandaddy fought for being stepped on like it's trash And I'm a downright hateful monster if I back the blue and badge

[Chorus]
It ain't easy being country in this country nowadays
The direction the fingers point when everything goes up in flames
Sayin' I'm some right-wing devil 'cause I was red letter, Jesus raised
It ain't easy being country in this country nowadays

[Bridge]
All I do is mind my business, live my life the best I can
Try to be a real good husband, a real good daddy, a real good man
But because I have my morals and a small town point of view
You assume that you don't like me means that I don't like you, too

[Chorus]
It ain't easy being country in this country nowadays
The direction the fingers point when everything goes up in flames
Sayin' I'm some right-wing devil 'cause I was gospel, Jesus raised
It ain't easy being country in this country nowadays

[Outro]
Mm, in this country nowadays
