Every map dot has a few
Good ol' boys keeping it old school
Fight somebody at the drop of a hat
Help somebody give the shirt off his back
And love somebody like she ought to be loved
Throws a little thanks to the man above
For all he's got, it ain't a lot, but it's enough

He's a mama's boy, a John Deere rider
Dirt on his boots, the heart of a fighter
Chevy square body, old Skoal ring
Simple man on an old six-string
Friday night, John 3:16
Back-road baptized just like me
He's holding it down
He earned that ground
He's a small-town, small-town king

He holds court in a cornfield
And he holds court on a bar stool
He paints every damn shade of red
But when she smiles just right
He plays it cool

'Cause he's a mama's boy, a John Deere rider
Dirt on his boots, the heart of a fighter
Chevy square body, old Skoal ring
Simple man on an old six-string
Friday night, John 3:16
Back-road baptized just like me
He's holding it down
He earned that ground
He's a small-town, small-town king
Yeah!

Fight somebody at the drop of a hat
Help somebody give the shirt off his back
Love somebody like she ought to be loved
Throws a little thanks to the man above

Not the first and won't be the last
And he knows he'll never leave
Even when he's six feet under the grass
He'll still be the small-town king
Mm, the small-town king
Yeah, yeah

'Cause he's a mama's boy, a John Deere rider
Dirt on his boots, the heart of a fighter
Chevy square body, old Skoal ring
Simple man on an old six-string
Friday night, John 3:16
Back-road baptized just like me
He's holding it down
He earned that ground
He's a small-town

'Cause he's a mama's boy, a John Deere rider
