Love this song!

Brad Paisley has a song called "I'm still a guy" that reminds me so much of Tom. Tom obviously isn't as country with the hunting and fishing (although he used to fish growing up and when we lived in Louisiana) but he has talked about men feminizing themselves and how sickening that is. So everytime I hear this song, I think of Tom. Brittanie actually called my attention to it because she thought it was so Tom! Here are the lyrics:

When you see a deer
You see Bambi
And I see antlers up on the wall
When you see a lake
You think picnics
And I see a large mouth up under that log
You’re probably thinkin' that you’re gonna change me
In some ways well, maybe you might
Scrub me down, dress me up
Oh, but no matter what
Remember, I’m still a guy

You think that ridin' a wild bull sounds crazy
And I’d like to give it a whirl
Well, love makes a man do some things he ain’t proud of
And in a weak moment I might
Walk your sissy dog
Hold your purse at the mall
But remember, I’m still a guy

And I’ll pour out my heart
Hold your hand in the car
Write a love song that makes you cry
Then turn right around
Knock some jerk to the ground
‘Cause he copped a feel as you walked by

I can hear you now talkin' to your friends
Sayin' yeah girls he’s come a long way
From draggin' his knuckles and carryin' a club
And buildin' a fire in a cave
Well now what can I say at the end of the day
Honey, I’m still a guy

These days there’s dudes gettin' facials
Manicured, waxed, and botoxed
But with deep spray on tans and creamy lotioney hands
You can’t grip a tackle box
Yeah, with all of these men linin' up to get neutered
It’s hip now to be feminized
But, I don’t highlight my hair
I’ve still got a pair
Yeah, honey I’m still a guy

Oh, my eyebrows ain’t plucked
There's a gun in my truck
Oh Thank God, I’m still a guy

Brad Paisley performed this song at the CMT awards and half way through made the song infinitely better by inviting Hank Williams Jr. to perform it with him. I LOVE Hank Jr. and always have. If you want to see it, just check out the CMT website.

It is so true that opposites attract because though the words of this song are so Tom, he hates country music. He was listening to rock when I met him and he still prefers rock. I guess that's where Brittanie gets it from. But no matter what, I'm thankful he's still a guy!
