Born in Vidor, Texas, in 1966, Byrd grew up listening to classic country music and started playing guitar and singing in local bands when he was a teenager. He signed his first recording contract in 1992 and went on to become one of the most successful country artists of the 1990s and 2000s.

I'm From The Country was written by Marty Brown and Stan Webb and can be found on his album of the same name, released in 1998.

The song was released as a single in 1998, it reached No. 4 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart and hit #1 in Canada.

There was an official music video featuring Byrd and his band performing in a field, surrounded by horses, cows, and other farm animals. The video showcases the rural lifestyle that the song celebrates.

Lifestyles Of The Not So Rich And Famous was one of four singles from his 1994 album No Ordinary Man.

The song was written by Tim Nichols and Craig Wiseman and managed to hit #4 on both the US and Canadian country charts.

There was an official video put out to promote this number.

My version of this song is slightly more bluesy than the original country recording by Tracy Byrd.

The official music video features Byrd and his band performing in a bar, with shots of tequila being served and people dancing.

Garth Brooks had also recorded the song but in a phone conversation, Byrd assured him the song was going to do well as a single for him (Byrd), so Garth let him have the single release and held off. To my knowledge Garth Brooks never did release his version as a single. A true gentleman right there.

The Truth About Men had a few guests including Blake Shelton, Andy Griggs and Montgomery Gentry and hails from the 2003 album of the same name.

The song reached #13 on the US Country charts and crossed over to #77 on the Billboard Hot 100.

The official music video features Byrd and his band performing in a bar, with women dancing and flirting with the men.
