Put Some Drive In Your Country
Travis Tritt

         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
         HEY-YEA
                  A
         Put some drive in the country
         E                          A
         Let's keep country drivin' on

         YEA-YEA-YEA-YEA

         A-E-A
