Raised Rank

We still pledge allegiance to this nations flag 
We still believe in the American way and work for what we have. 
You know we love our mamas, and give thanks to the lord above
And this 10% in the offering plate just ain’t enough, when you was raised rank 

From the badlands in Dakotas 
To that Louisiana swamp 
When their backs against a corner 
They ain’t never gunna give up 
When you climb down on a Brahma 
And call for the gate, you better have nerves of steel 
If ya gunna make it 8 on a bull that’s rank


It ain’t a shiny new buckle 
Or a pickup truck
It’s the fight in the eyes and the never give up 
Can do won’t quit bad ass American 
It’s a plow in the ground from dawn to dusk
The man overseas embracing the suck
So folks like you and me can be free 

Brother if that sounds like you 
Then you was raised rank 


So just burn your some Rosin 
Pull your hat down slide and ride
Your gonna  find out what your made of when that silver scratches hide 
Don’t give up what you came for don’t quit no don’t give in. 
Cause this life is what you make it
Gadda have grit if ya wanna win 
And that’s raised rank

It ain’t a shiny new buckle 
Or a pickup truck
It’s the fight in the eyes and the never give up 
Can do won’t quit bad ass American 
It’s a plow in the ground from dawn to dusk
The man overseas embracing the suck
So folks like you and me can be free 

Brother if that sounds like you 
Sister if that sounds like you 
Then you was raised rank 

Yeah we still pledge allegiance to this nations flag 
We still believe in the American way and thank God for all we have

And that’s raised rank
