Verse 1CI've got plates for Fpurple Cgas
'CBout the only Fbreak I Ccatch
But CI am not the Fkind of Cman
To Cblame the dealer on a Flosing Chand
CHave a lone star Fin my Ceye
The Cdarker the sky, the Fbrighter it Cshines
CPumpjack checks and Fbaler Ctwine
A Cton of grit or mayFbe it'sC spiteChorusAnd Dmif I weren't a flatland boy, I'd Fsay I have a hill
A Dmhill that I will die upon if the Fclimb don't get me killed
If Dmthere were such heights around here for a Fguy to lay his pride
MayDmbe I'd rest before I died if I weFren't a flatland Cboy
If I Fweren't a flatland CboyVerse 2I Chammer down, Fhair straight Cback
CWorld blurs past, tell me Fhow's it Cthat
CMy horizon Fline's staCtic
I Cguess at least iFt's a sure Cbet
Was Ctaught to not throw the Ffirst Cfist
But if you Ctake a hit, finish thatF son of a C*****
In a Clife having the upper Fhand's a Cmyth
Your only Cfighting chance is too sFtubborn to CquitChorusAnd Dmif I weren't a flatland boy, I'd Fsay I have a hill
A Dmhill that I will die upon if the Fclimb don't get me killed
If Dmthere were such heights around here for a Fguy to lay his pride
MayDmbe I'd rest before I died if I weFren't a flatland Cboy
If I Fweren't a flatland CboyVerse 3CRetired rail ties, Fpoint-nine Cwire
CNeighbor kid on the Ffencin' Cpliers
CFargo that turns Fover Cfine
At Cforty below if you Fcuss it Cright
A Csly thumb of FRye someCtimes
Keep a Cbottle hid with the FBio-MyCcin
You can Cdull the edge, you canF look aChead
But can't Dmget there, it goes on Cforever
Oh, it Dmjust goes on Cforever
You keep your Dmhead down, it goes on CforeverOutroBut CI've got plates for Fpurple Cgas
