They got skinned-up knees
Grass stains on their jeans
Dirt on their hands
They're just like their dads
They dig in the dirt
Cut up in church
Play outside
And say things like

Can I reel one in?
Dad, you're my best friend
Just one more spin
I promise I'll be good if you let me drive
This is so much fun
I shoot my BB gun
Watch how fast I can run
They're dirty and muddy and buddy
You ain't got a choice
But to love 'em and let 'em be
Little country boys

They climb up trees
Grow like weeds
Love playing ball
Go everywhere with their dogs
Skip the rocks on the water
They're sweet like their mama
Puts a smile on my face
Every time I hear 'em say

Can I reel one in?
Dad, you're my best friend
Just one more spin
I promise I'll be good if you let me drive
This is so much fun
I shoot my BB gun
Watch how fast I can run
They're dirty and muddy and buddy
You ain't got a choice
But to love 'em and let 'em be
Little country boys

Yeah, they're just like us
They don't ever wanna grow up
They hunt, they fish, they love to ride in the truck

Can I reel one in?
Dad, you're my best friend
Just one more spin
I promise I'll be good if you let me drive
This is so much fun
I shoot my BB gun
Watch how fast I can run
They're dirty and muddy and buddy
You ain't got a choice
But to love 'em and let 'em be
Little country boys

You gotta love 'em and let 'em be
Little country boys
