Brantley Gilbert - G.R.I.T.S. Lyrics






I had a buddy come down 'round last July
Called me when he crossed the Mason-Dixon Line
Said he was headed down south and looking for a real good time.

I said, "Man, come on, I got a place in mind."
We pulled up at bar right off the Georgia line.
Walked in, man, his eyes got wide
And when his jaw hit the floor, all I could do was smile.

He said, "Man, we got some pretty women up north
But I ain't never seen nothing like this."
I said, "Man, these here ain't ordinary women.
We call these grits."

She's a product of being raised in the country.
She knows her roots and works hard for her money.
A southern drawl with dark tan legs.
Ain't nothin' like a woman southern born and bred.
Now she loves her mama, daddy, and the Lord to death.
Acting innocent and playing hard to get
With her girls tonight, man, they're out on the town.
Grits, man – a girl raised in the south.

Sat down at the bar had a couple drinks.
Breakin' his neck just scoping the scene.
It wasn't long before he had my attention pointed towards the door.

He was starin' at long legs that ran into boots.
Her short skirt and her t-shirt didn't have much use
But she walked right to the jukebox and fired it up.

She had every head turning, boys eyes was burning
As she made her way out to the floor.
Had all the jealous girls looking, all saying,
"She ain't nothin' but a..."
Oh my God, she just broke it down low.

Product of being raised in the country.
She knows her roots and works hard for her money.
A southern drawl with dark tan legs.
Ain't nothin' like a woman southern born and bred.
Now she loves her mama, daddy, and the Lord to death.
Good at acting innocent and playing hard to get
With her girls tonight, man, they're out on the town.
Grits, man – a girl raised in the south.

She's a product of being raised in the country.
She knows her roots and works hard for her money.
A southern drawl with dark tan legs.
Ain't nothin' like a woman southern born and bred.
Now she loves her mama, daddy, and the Lord to death.
She's acting innocent but playing hard to get
With her girls tonight, man, they're out on the town.
Grits, man – a girl raised in the south.

  43. J.... ....

    Maybe someone can help me.  I'm asking as many Gilbert fans as possible if they can help me locate that station that "plays Cash, Hank, Willie, and Waylon."  Having trouble finding any.  All the "country" stations I find play this fake pop/rock faux-country bullshit.

    J.... ....

    You joe if you wanna know go ask some of their fans not ours

    J.... ....

    JoeDoakes1015 93.5 out of Jackson Mississippi

    J.... ....

    JoeDoakes1015 i agree with you on that one, but here in Houston we got 97.1 country legends radio station bout as good as it gets

    J.... ....

    Classic Country 106.7 Wilder, Ky

    J.... ....

    Classic Country 105.9 Middletown, Oh.

  44. T.... G....

    It's a new take and a great change, leave the hate elsewhere, if you don't like it don't listen to it..?

  45. L.... O....

    This is the best version for G.R.I.T.S. An u have the best sound quality of this song on YouTube . I just wish u didn't have to have a Canadian iTunes account to download this Song. But great job with song

    A.... C....

    @Mace Windu lmgdao

  49. C.... B....

    this song was better on his first album where it should have stayed. BG u disappoint the country world let alone everyone that believes that you are who you were 6 years ago. now your just another guy looking for a paycheck.

    C.... B....

    CODY BUSS. Hey you know what its like to do the things he does, from the words on the page to the right music. From the band to the recording. Not including the time effort,and family members and friends that sacrifice to help you get your stuff on the line so watch your mouth and remember country folks were all family-centered and we protect our own.!!#!

  50. K.... L....

    He is so sexy.... voice.. looks.. country boy!! Could u ask for more? Lol.... he could sing me to sleep any night!! ♥

    K.... L....

    Kristen Lane no doubt

  51. V.... ....

  52. J.... ....

    Rather have my country mixed with rock and not pop any day

    J.... ....

    Yes sir.

    J.... ....

    Hell yeah

  53. T.... A....

    I like this version as much as the original, it's not like the words were changed, just the style, change is good

  54. S.... L....

    Original is better gotta say
     

  55. J.... R....

    His new album has more of a rock attitude..

  56. J.... G....

    It more country then some other

    J.... G....

    Im not jumping but its not suppose to be country. Its southern rock, and southern rock has country influence. 

  57. C.... C....

    Older version is a hell alot better. The song seems sped up a lil and the guitar in this one is to loud than the other one.

  58. G.... M....

    Mmmm love him!!

  59. T.... V....

    different key than the album

  60. E.... D....

    sounds slightly sped up

    E.... D....

    This song is amazing!

  61. D.... M....

    I love his voice, his style, love his songs, love the words, I could play his music all day an not even think about turning it off.. .. I have his music. On my phone, my other phone, lap top, in my bf 's man cave, be player in room,an car, ...just sayin I am a huge fan :-) :-) :-) !!!

    D.... M....

    CVT CVT

    D.... M....

    he does have great song regardless

  62. K.... D....

    Why did he have to start half-growing his songs? Dude has a beautiful voice when he just sings. Get rid of that gargling bullshit and just sing, Brantley.

  63. S.... ....

    Older version is way better

  64. D.... B....

    older version was better'

  65. S.... C....

    Honestly i think i like the older recording better. Still a kick ass song

  66. N.... T....

    This is an old song of his, it's just revamped. But I like it.
