Osborne Brothers - Fightin' Side of Me lyrics

(Merle Haggard)

When you're running down my country man

You're walking on the fightin' side of me.

I hear people talking bad about the way we have to live here in this country

Harping on the wars we fight griping bout the way things oughta be

I don't mind 'em switching sides and standing up for things they believe in

When they're running down my country they're walking on the fightin' side of me.

They're walking on the fightin' side of me

Running down a way old life our fightin' men have fought and died to keep

If you don't love it leave it let this song that I'm singing be a warning

When you're running down our country hoss you're walking on the fightin' side of me.

--- Instrumental ---

I read about some squirrely guy who claims that he just don't believe in fightin'

And I wonder just how long the rest of us can count on being free

They love our milk and honey but they preach about some other way of livin'

When they're running down our country man they're walking on the fightin' side of me.

They're walking on the fightin' side of me

Running down a way old life our fightin' men have fought and died to keep

If you don't love it leave it let this song that I'm singing be a warning

When you're running down our country hoss you're walking on the fightin' side of me.

When you're running down our country hoss you're walking on the fightin' side of me...
