Chicken Fried
Zac Brown Band · 2008
🎤 Sing along
Sing with the chorus
- Well I've seen the sunrise
- See the love in my woman's eyes
- Feel the touch of a precious child
- And know a mother's love
Echo the hook
- And the radio u-up
- Well I was raised up beneath the shade of a Georgia pine
- And that's home you know
- Sweet tea pecan pie and homemade wine
