"Country Boy Can't Survive" lyrics - COLE SWINDELL

One more tall pour
Don't know what for
'Cause it ain't doing nothing 'bout your memory
Hat low, boots on, I love this song
But tonight it's hitting a little bit differently
Hank's singing 'bout how to get by
Everything but five foot three, blue eyes

[Chorus:]
Push the city limits to the sticks
Close the honky-tonks down at five
I could still drink and I could still fish
Get on with my backwoods way of life
Now I ain't saying Bocephus lied
But ever since you said goodbye
I think I found the one thing
A country boy can't survive

I can fix up a broke truck
But this time I'm stuck
Somewhere between can't go home
And I can't stay here
Last thing I wanna hear is hank singing 'bout
How to get through everything
But me standing there in your rear view

[Chorus:]
Push the city limits to the sticks
Close the honky-tonks down at five
I could still drink and I could still fish
Get on with my backwoods way of life
Now I ain't saying Bocephus lied
But ever since you said goodbye
I think I found the one thing
A country boy can't survive

[Bridge:]
A girl like that gettin' gone
The kinda hurt you can't rub dirt on
It ain't enough
Thought I was tough
But I ain't that strong, no

[Chorus:]
They can push the city limits to the sticks
Close the honky-tonks down at five
I could still drink and I could still fish
Get on with my backwoods way of life
Now I ain't saying Bocephus lied
But ever since you said goodbye
I think I found the one thing
A country boy can't survive

[Outro:]
Yeah I think I found the one thing
A country boy can't survive
