Country Music Made A Man Out Of Me Lyrics

I grew up listen to the radio
Learned everything little thing I was ever gonna need to know
I learned about lovin� before I ever got kissed
All about fightin� before I ever made a fist
Got a lesson in leavin� never packed a bag
Smokin� and drinkin�, without a sip or a drag

Knew �bout cheatin� when I�d never even broke a heart
I was king of the road, I never drove a car
Got stuck in prison but I never did time
Knew Jesus long before I saw the light�that�s right
I had a first class education that came absolutely free
Country music made a man out of me

I�m no stranger to the rain
I�m a ramblin� man driving my life away
I�m so lonesome I could cry
Lord help me make it through the night
I was country when it wasn�t cool
Tougher than a boy named sue
Mama tried (mama tried)�can�t you see
Cause country music made a man out of me

Grandpa told me �bout the good old days
Ronnie told me about smoky mountain rain
I believed when Johnny said he walked the line
And dreamed about Deana and strawberry wine�that was fine
My teachers taught me well and it ain�t hard to see
Country music made a man out of me

I�m no stranger to the rain
I�m a ramblin� man driving my life away
I�m so lonesome I could cry
Lord help me make it through the night
I was country when it wasn�t cool
Tougher than a boy named sue
Mama tried (mama tried)�can�t you see
Cause country music made a man out of me

I�m no stranger to the rain
I�m a ramblin� man driving my life away
I�m so lonesome I could cry
Lord help me make it through the night
I was country when it wasn�t cool
Tougher than a boy named sue
Mama tried (mama tried)�can�t you see
Cause country music made a man out of me

This country boy will survive
40 hour week, workin� 9 to 5
I�m still crazy but I act naturally
Country music made a man out of me
