Lyrics
**\[Verse 1]**
We got backwoods blood runnin’ through our viens.
Built for battle, never broke by pain.
This ain't just dusty arenas, it's something deep inside.
A need to test the limits, where our true selves hide.
**\[Chorus]**
Got a temper that flares like a wildfire's roar.
Won’t break a will that hasn't broke before.
We got backwoods blood runnin’ through our viens.
Whiskey fire and outlaw flame.
**\[Verse Two]**
Man Killer threw me and I heard the snap
Laid in the dirt with the sky goin' black
Doctors said I'd never ride again
But fire don't die in the hearts of men
Tattooed roots from a one-lane town
Fires lite up when the sun goes down
Cowboys rise when they wanna ride
Dust on their boots and fate as their guide
Got a temper that flares like a wildfire's roar.
Won’t break a will that hasn't broke before.
We got backwoods blood runnin’ through our viens.
Whiskey fire and outlaw flame.
**\[Outro]**
Yeah, we’re backwoods blood, runnin’ deep and wide
