[Verse 1: Colt Ford]
Everything I ever had, good or bad
Was handed down from my old man, his old man, and Jesus
Yeah, even this old truck right here
He wrecked it tryin' to miss a deer
I put it back together from the pieces
Pulled out that factory stereo
Put 18s in the back of this old Chevrolet
And rocked away Bocephus

[Chorus: Colt Ford & Granger Smith]
I'm keepin' it real
Dug in deep, down to earth
Livin' life for all it's worth
I'm keepin' it real
In the country railroad go uptown
Waitin' 'til the sun goes down
I'm keepin' it real

[Verse 2: Colt Ford]
Yeah, everything I ever learned
Right or wrong was cut and dried
Crash and burn and drive it like you stole it (that's what we did)
I've watched that red light blink for hours
On the water tower from west of town
Headlights on the highway, just keep goin'
This map dot made me who I am
And who I am don't give a damn
Don't give a damn 'bout anybody knowin'
[Bridge: Colt Ford & Granger Smith]
I'm keepin' it real
No quittin' side stubborn pride
I'm just out here walkin' the line
I'm keepin' it real
In the dusty two lane half drunk town
Waitin' 'til the sun goes down
I'm keepin' it real

[Verse 3: Colt Ford]
Lay back on this rusty hood
Beer is cold and life is good
I'll light it up and think about old memories
I'm killin' time 'cause I can't take it with me

[Chorus: Colt Ford & Granger Smith]
I'm keepin' it real
Dug in deep, down to earth
Livin' life for all it's worth
I'm keepin' it real
In the country railroad go uptown
Waitin' 'til the sun goes down
I'm keepin' it real

[Bridge: Colt Ford & Granger Smith]
No quittin' side stubborn pride
I'm just out here walkin' the line
I'm keepin' it, I'm keepin' it real
In the dusty two lane half drunk town
Waitin' 'til the sun goes down
I'm keepin' it real
[Outro: Granger Smith]
I'm keepin' it real
I'm keepin' it real
In the dusty two lane half drunk town
I'm keepin' it real
I'm keepin' it real
Keepin' it real
