I'm a Northern man in rebel land

I've been blessed with a damn good honky-tonk band

And I'll be coming to a city near you soon

You know it just occurred to me, I'll be hanging my hat in Tennessee

And this Idaho boy is all out of aces up his sleeve

And I'm just trying to understand

How a guy like me even has a chance

So, I'll trust my gut and stay true to who I am

I'm just trying to hold onto nothing while it means something

You might say it don't add up to a lot

But it's all I got

I've been known to spend some time on a cranberry bog where the ducks like to hide

And the mountain side is where I clear my mind

Big Sky is God's country and that is something I beliеve

And I suppose I'll be that way until thе day that I die

I'm just trying to understand

How a guy like me even has a chance

So, I'll trust my gut and stay true to who I am

I'm just trying to hold onto nothing while it means something

You might say it don't add up to a lot

But it's all I got

I'm just trying to understand

How a guy like me even has a chance

So, I'll trust my gut and stay true to who I am

I'm just trying to hold onto nothing while it means something

You might say it don't add up to a lot

But it's all I got

I'm just trying to understand

How a guy like me even has a chance

So, I'll just try to understand how a guy like me even has a chance
