it's a pretty effective country-accented sample with the plunky sparse banjo and a little fiddle
the content is country to the point of potentially being taken for parody (i can't tell)
the attitude is country (though not just country)

As a genre mashup, it's relatively effective and I can see why it's a hit on country radio esp. in light of recent sonic shifts in 'white' pop country.

Makes me wonder if Deliverance would be a country hit today.
