Trace Adkins Lyrics
"Fightin Words"

Alright

Everyone knows I'm the hardworkin' peace lovin' type
I'd walk a thousand miles outta my way just to keep from fight
Poke fun at the way that I talk or this hat that I wear
You can say what you want about me see if I care

But one slip of the tongue 'bout my God or my Momma
Or this flag that I wear on my shirt
You'll see a side of me man that I don't think you wanna
'Cause them there's fightin' words

Now don't get me wrong I swapped skin now and then in my youth
I was all for an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth
Now the older I get the less I want to stand toe to toe
But before you go runnin' your mouth I think you aught to know

That one slip of the tongue 'bout my God or my Momma
Or this flag that I wear on my shirt
You'll see a side of me man that I don't think you wanna
'Cause them there's fightin' words

Chevrolet or Ford the South or the North
That ain't gonna get me worked up
But I'll draw the line every time
When it come to the things that I love

So one slip of the tongue 'bout my dog or my woman
Or this country that I proudly serve
You'll see a side of me man that you damn sure don't wanna
'Cause them there's fightin' words

Yeah, them's fightin' words
Oh them's fightin' words Hoss

(Speaking)
Excuse me the First Amendment
Son the First Amendment protects you from the government
Not from me
You can say whatever you want to out there
You come within reach of me
I'll exercise my right to give you a good ole country ass whoopin'
What I'll do
