 Where It's At

(Chords D,A,G)

(Chorus)
I got my cowboy boots and my cowboy hat
and my ragged old jeans that's torn in the back
My shirt's got a picture of the Man In Black
says Johnny in the front and Cash on the back
Some say I'm livin' in the long gone past
but I like to tell 'em..............(pause)
THAT'S WHERE IT'S AT

I ride in my Chevy that's my pick up truck
but I'll hop in your Ford if you pick me up
I might start talking 'bout the days on the farm
like rolling in the hay in the back of the barn

Now I think those times they weren't so bad
when I think about 'em ever' now and then
If I'd never known my country home
I'd never have a place to call my own

(Chorus)
I got my cowboy boots and my cowboy hat
and my ragged old jeans that's torn in the back
My shirt's got a picture of the Man In Black
says Johnny in the front and Cash on the back
Some say I'm livin' in the long gone past
but I like to tell 'em................(pause)
THAT'S WHERE IT'S AT

Now I don't have money or fancy things
it's just me and my girl in her hot blue jeans
I see ever' thing that I'll ever need
when I look in her eyes lookin' back at me

So it's me, my girl and a dog named Joe
and this ole guitar wherever we go
I know those old times, they ain't comin' back
but I'll keep 'em in my songs, you can count on that

(Chorus)
I got my cowboy boots and my cowboy hat
and my ragged old jeans that's torn in the back
My shirt's got a picture of the Man In Black
says Johnny in the front and Cash on the back
Some say I'm livin' in the long gone past
but I like to tell 'em that's where it's at
Some say I'm livin' in the long gone past
but I like to tell 'em that's where it's at
Some say I'm livin' in the long gone past
but I like to tell 'em.......(Stop and Pause)
.......................(spoken)...THAT'S WHERE IT'S AT!

Country songs are still going strong through all the years because they are down-home and people can relate to those feelings, especially people from the country, but it's surprising how many city dwellers dream about living out there, wild and free, too.

I really like the tone of this one. Your picture reminds me of my twin brother and I out and about by the shack behind the barn we lived in for our first two years. One of our first T-shirts that we wore a lot and had our picture taken in, and on the front, "Rope 'um Ronald and Rope 'um Roger" with rope surrounding our names. Great with our cowboy outfits.

Thanks guys! This has become about my number one song I do now. The folks clap along and sometimes shout out the end part of verses "Where it's at." I love it when a song makes a connection with people. Yall just need to come to the Gulf Coast and to the Florabama on a vacation here in the south on the beach and I would give you a tour. I sing at the Florabama every Monday night and you would have a blast!
