Green, Pat - What I'm For Lyrics
I'm for wildflowers in the window
Mechanics you can trust
I'm for crackers in my chili
And leavin' grudges in the dust
Who can muster up a smile
I'm for takin' in that stray dog
That's been hangin' 'round for awhile
I'm for turning off the TV
Gettin' off the internet
I'm for learning all the words
To the Gettysburg Address
I'm for dusty pawn shop guitars
I'm for soakin' up the wisdom
When an old man speaks his mind.
I'm for laid off factory workers
When the wolf is at the door
You don't have to guess what I'm against
If you know what I'm for
I'm for Texas Margaritas
Gettin' outta debt
I'm for havin' faith in something
That hasn't happened yet
For the shy kid in the corner
Afraid to ask the girl to dance
For the ex-con outta prison
Who just wants a second chance
For the inner city teacher
With her heart stuck in her throat
Can still see God in every child
And never gives up hope
I'm for dusty pawn shop guitars
And boxers passed their prime
I'm for soakin' up the wisdom
When and old man speaks his mind
I'm for Detroit factory workers
When the wolf is at the door
You don't have to guess what I'm against
If you know what I'm for
I'm counting all my blessings
When the wolf is at my door
You don't have to ask what I'm against
You don't have to guess what I'm against

Green, Pat What I'm For Comments
we need more songs of morals and patriotism like this
Amen. This is a Good one to share a whole bunch on MLK day when people might still feel a bit divided. Just a suggestion from someone who Loves my country again when it got pretty tough to do that for me for a long time.
Benjamin Clasen , welcome home! Thank you!
Wow throw back, this song was playing in my head today
Zack Baker hell yeah
This is a fantastic song written by Marc Beeson and Allen Shamblin whom are both Nashville songwriters. Love this song!
it means boxers who are past their time of boxing!!
From one guy with a traumatic Brain Injury I love what Mike Tyson is doing with his life these days. Inspires me still when I get down.
very good song...fits someone I know
Love all his work.
Pat hit #28 in Billboard, in '09. Thought he'd have some new music, by now. Is he in the process of recordin' a new album? Please let me know. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx! Have a great week!
Great song. I wish i could find the song country star by pat green.
Boxers.....the sport im sure! WHy the hell would he be talking about all these people and then underwear??LOL..."past their prime" is a common phrase for boxers and athletes....I dont know any man that has been for old underwear, but this could be a first.
@nickitynick8 thanks for the laugh needed that
@nickitynick8 he means, i believe, the dog... as in an old dog that is old and basically useless but you love it all the same
This song defines a positive approach to defining ones values as opposed to the disagreeing with the way someone else chooses to live. I heard this song for the first time a couple of weeks ago and shouted "NOW THERE YOU HAVE IT!"
Definately Undies....You guys must not know Pat.
thanks!
nice song.
I think the people but I don't know you have to ask him what that means. I'm glad you liked the song!
Thanks!
Wonderful song ! 5 stars !
