From the recording Native
As Florida natives from Pioneer families, we have lived the stories that newcomers write songs about. So every song we write is a Florida song. It's that simple.
Lyrics
I've been livin' the dream all of my life
Balanced on the bones of my ancestors
Florida sons, Florida daughters
Six generations of original investors
And you ain't got nothin' new to tell me
You ain't got nothin' new
Cracker cowboys and Florida cattlemen
Jackson's Thieves, Civil War battalions
Livin' and dyin' in the Florida swamps
And you ain't got nothin' new to tell me
You ain't got nothin' new
CHORUS:
It's in my blood, it's in my bones
In every word of every song
And I don't have a thing to prove
And you ain't got nothin' new to tell me
You ain't got nothin' new
Florida blood runs through my veins
Every patch of ground holds another stain
Every drop tells another story
You ain't got nothin' new to tell me
You ain't got nothin' new
CHORUS:
