Intro 
Em G D A x2

        Em                      G  
I had a buddy come down 'round last July
  D                                   A
Called me when he crossed the Mason Dixon line
             Em                    G                     D    A
Said he was headed down south and lookin' for a real good time
       Em                 G     
I said man c'mon I got a place in mind
              D                            A 
And we pulled up at a bar right off the Georgia line
Em                G
Walked in man his eyes got wide
              A                                          D
and when his jaw hit the floor all I could do was smile
          G                                                  A
He said, Man we got some pretty women up North, but I ain't never seen nothin like this;
             G                                 A
and I said, Man these here ain't ordinary women, we call these GRITS;

Chorus
         Em                
She's a product of bein' raised in the country
     D                         
She knows her roots and works hard for her money
 A
A southern drawl with dark tanned legs 
        G                             A
Ain't nothing like a woman southern born and bred 
          Em                           
Now she loves her mom and daddy and the Lord to death 
      G      
Just actin' innocent; playin' hard to get 
          D
With the girls tonight, man their out on the town
 A 
GRITS, man a girl raised in the South

Em G D Em x2

      Em                          G
He sat down at the bar and had a couple drinks 
 D                       A
Breakin' his neck just scopin' the scene 
           Em                     G                           D    A
It wasn't long before he had my attention pointed towards the door
         Em                      G                       D 
He was starin at long legs that ran into boots, short skirt, and t shirt
         A
didn't have much use
       Em                     G                 A
But she walked right to the jukebox and fired it up 
          G
She had every head turnin
                             A 
Boys eyes was burnin as she made her way out to the floor
          G 
Had the jealous girls lookin all sayin 
                      A
She ain't nothin but a-oh my god she just broke it down low!
