A 
         Well I was raised on country classics 
 
         Like Roy Acuff and George Jones 
 
         Lord I love'd to hear 'em 
                                        E7 
         Sing all them old time country songs 
               A 
         But I really got excited 
 
         'bout the time I turned 15 
                    D7 
         That's the first time I heard Waylon 
 
         and old Bocephus sing 
                       A 
         They put some drive in their country 
         E                     A 
         That really turned me on 
 

         D7 
         Yea, put some drive in your country 
                              A 
         Keep country drivin' on 
                  D7 
         When the music gets you movin' 
         B                      E 
         You know that can't be wrong 
         A 
         Everytime I hear that Outlaw stuff 
 
         On my car radio 
            D7 
         It makes me wanna drive it 
 
         Just as fast as it will go 
                  A 
         Put some drive in your country 
         E                          A 
         Let's keep country drivin' on 
 

         A 
         We played some shows in Atlanta 
 
         On Sunday afternoons 
 
         The gigs were packed and I was nervous 
                                         E 
         Cause I wanted folks to like my tunes 
                         A 
         The crowds were full of younger people 
 
         They were all about my age 
              D7 
         So I turned and told the band 
 
         Just before we walked on stage 
                  A 
         Put some drive in your country fellas 
         E                      A 
         We turned those people on 
 

                      D7 
         Yea put some drive in your country 
                              A 
         Keep country drivin' on 
                  D7 
         When the music gets you dancin' 
         B                      E 
         You know that can't be wrong 
         A 
         See I made myself a promise 
 
         When I was just a kid 
                 D7 
         I'd mix southern rock and country 
 
         And that's just what I did 
                  A 
         Put some drive in your country 
         E                    A 
         Keep country drivin' on 
 
         HEY-YEA-YEA-YEA 
 
         (Instrumental Break) 
 

                  D7 
         Put some drive in your country 
                                       A 
         Hey let's keep country drivin on 
                  D7 
         When the music gets you movin' 
         B                      E 
         You know that can't be wrong 
                 A 
         I still love old country 
 
         I ain't tryin' to put it down 
         D7 
         Damn I miss Duanne Allman 
 
         I wish he was still around 
                  A 
         Put some drive in the country 
         E                    A 
         Keep country drivin' on 
            D
