Southern Gospel
by Scotty Inman

Album: Southern Gospel - Single

My grandpa preached from a trailer bed
Had potluck dinner and a Marlboro red
And we'd sing, "I saw the light"
A couple dozen times
We played hide-and-seek underneath the stars
And drank grandma's tea out of mason jars
And didn't need those city lights
It was just our way of life

Well, I was raised on it
It's where I call home
I made my way on it
And it's the only thing I know

It's in my bones, it's in my blood
It's in my roots down in the mud
And it's a redneck church choir singin'
Holy, holy, holy
It's in my jeans, it's in my boots
It's in the way that spirit moves
In a part-time sinner, I wanna be Apostle
Raised on southern Gospel

I saved four summers for a new used truck
Had a first date, mixed tape, all cued up
And I shook her daddy's hand
And showed him I'm the kinda man

That was raised on it
And it's the only thing I know

It's in my bones, it's in my blood
It's in my roots down in the mud
And it's a redneck church choir singin'
Holy, holy, holy
It's in my jeans, it's in my boots
It's in the way that spirit moves
In a part-time sinner, I wanna be Apostle
Raised on southern Gospel

Well, I was raised on it
It's where I call home
I made my way on it
And it's the only thing I know

It's in my bones, it's in my blood
It's in my roots down in the mud
And it's a redneck church choir singin'
Holy, holy, holy
It's in my jeans, it's in my boots
It's in the way that spirit moves
In a part-time sinner, I wanna be Apostle
Raised on southern Gospel

Oh, it's in my bones, it's in my blood
It's in my roots down
The roots down in the mud
Raised on southern Gospel
