[Verse 1]
They got skinned-up knees
Grass stains on their jeans
Dirt on their hands
They're just like their dads
They dig in the dirt
Cut up in church
Play outside
And say things like

[Chorus]
Can I reel one in?
Dad, you're my best friend
Just one more spin
I promise I'll be good if you let me drive
This is so much fun
I shoot my BB gun
Watch how fast I can run
They're dirty and muddy and buddy
You ain't got a choice
But to love 'em and let 'em be
Little country boys

[Verse 2]
They climb up trees
Grow like weeds
Love playing ball
Go everywhere with their dogs
Skip the rocks on the water
They're sweet like their mama
Puts a smile on my face
Every time I hear 'em say
[Chorus]
Can I reel one in?
Dad, you're my best friend
Just one more spin
I promise I'll be good if you let me drive
This is so much fun
I shoot my BB gun
Watch how fast I can run
They're dirty and muddy and buddy
You ain't got a choice
But to love 'em and let 'em be
Little country boys

[Bridge]
Yeah, they're just like us
They don't ever wanna grow up
They hunt, they fish, they love to ride in the truck

[Chorus]
Can I reel one in?
Dad, you're my best friend
Just one more spin
I promise I'll be good if you let me drive
This is so much fun
I shoot my BB gun
Watch how fast I can run
They're dirty and muddy and buddy
You ain't got a choice
But to love 'em and let 'em be
Little country boys
[Outro]
You gotta love 'em and let 'em be
Little country boys
