This is my favorite song. I wake up in the middle of the night singing it. Here are the lyrics.
Music Video on www.cmt.com
Artist: Rodney Atkins
Song: These Are My People
Album: If You're Going Through Hell
Well We grew up Down by the railroad Tracks
shootin BB's at old beer cans
Choakin' on the smoke from a lucky strike
somebody lifted off his old man
We were Football Flunkies
Southern Rock Junkies
Crankin' up the stereo's
Singing Loud and Proud
to "Gimmie Three Steps" "Simple Man" and "Curtis Low"
We were big yuh know
Got some discount Knowledge at the Jr. Collage
Where we majored in beer and girls
It was all real funny 'til we ran out of money
and they threw us out into the world
Yeah the kids that thought they'd run this town
ain't a runnin' much of anything
just lovin' and laughin' and bustin' our asses
and we all call it all livin' the dream
These are my people
This is where I come from
Were givin' this life everything we got and then some
It ain't always pretty
But its real
It's the way we were made
Wouldn't have it any other way
These are my people
Well We take it all week on the chin with a grin
'til we make it to a friday night
And it's church league softball
holler about a bad call
preacher breaking up the fight
Then later on at the Green Light Tavern
Well everybody is gathered as friends
And the beers a pourin'
'til Monday Mornin'
and we start it all over again
These are my people
This is where I come from
Were givin' this life everything we got and then some
It ain't always pretty
but it's real
It's the way we were made
Wouldn't have it any other way
These Are My People
We fall Down and We get up
We walk proud and We talk tough
We got heart and We got nerve
Even If we are a bit disturbed
Woo Come on
These are my people
This is where I come from
Were givin' this life everything we got and then some
It ain't always pretty
but it's real
Its the way we were made
Wouldn't have it any other way Ah naw
These Are My People Yeah woo

Well we grew up down by the railroad tracks
Shootin' b.b.'s at old beer cans
Chokin' on the smoke from a lucky strike
Somebody lifted off of his old man
We were football flunkies
Southern rock junkies
Crankin' up the stereo
Singin' loud and proud to gimme three steps
Simple Man, and Curtis Lowe
We were good you know
We got some discount knowledge at the junior college
Where we majored in beer and girls
It was all real funny 'til we ran out of money
And they threw us out into the world
Yeah the kids that thought they'd run this town
Ain't runnin' much of anything
We're just lovin' and laughin'
And bustin' our asses
And we call it all livin' the dream
[Chorus]
These are my people
This is where I come from
We're givin' this life everything we've got and then some
It ain't always pretty
But it's real
That's the way we were made
Wouldn't have it any other way
These are my people
Well we take it all week on the chin with a grin
Till we make it to a Friday night
And it's church league softball holler 'bout a bad call
Preacher breakin' up the fight
Then later on at the green light tavern
Well everybody's gatherin' as friends
And the beer is pourin' till Monday mornin'
Where we start all over again
[Chorus]
We fall down and we get up
We walk proud and we talk tough
We got heart and we got nerve
Even if we are a bit disturbed
[Chorus]

I know that Rodney Atkins sings this song. It is pretty hot for him right now. The writers are Dave Berg and Rivers Rutherford.
Here is a website with the lyrics:

It is pretty nice. I really like Rodney Atkins songs. My daughter's favorite from him is his last one: Watching You.
Have a good day

This is a Rodney Atkins Song. "There are My People" is, in fact the name of this song. AWESOME SONG!!
Chorus:
These are my people, this is where I come from
Were giving this life everything we got and then some
It ain't always pretty, But its real
It's the way we were made, Wouldn't have it any other way
These are my people

There are two songs that come to mind....
Where I Come From - Alan Jackson
Back Where I Come From - Kenny Chesney
As for the lyrics you mentioned, sorry, can't help you right this minute....I got nothing!

"I'm from the country, and I like that way!" Tracy Byrd.
Of course the one you're thinking of, could be by Toby Keith or Lone Star.
