Bet your window's rolled down and your hair's pulled back
Just a touch of the fire burning so bright, no I don't want to mess this thing up
We are fragile, we are human, and we are shaped by the light we let through us,
Mama's hooked on Mary Kay. Brother's hooked on Mary Jane. Daddy's hooked on Mary two doors down.
Chew tobacco, chew tobacco, chew tobacco, spit
So maybe you could walk with me a while, and maybe I could rest beneath your smile
We ride side by side; a cloud of dust, a ray of light
Funny how a melody sounds like a memory; like a soundtrack to a July Saturday night
I'm glad I didn't know the way it all would end... the way it all would go
The steel guitars no longer cry and fiddles barely play, but drums and rock 'n roll guitars are mixed up in your face
We should be together with your feet up on the dashboard now
Well I dropped a note in a bottle to a long-legged model
I'm gonna walk with my grand daddy, and he'll match me step for step
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
You've got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em
It's a quarter after one, I'm a little drunk
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Let the whole world know that today is a day of reckoning
If I could just come in, I swear I'll leave. Won't take nothing but a memory...
And the preacher said he was a good man, and his brother said he was a good friend
Sitting on the porch drinking ice cold Cherry Coke, where everything is black & white
If I had to run, if I had to crawl, if I had to swim a hundred rivers, just to climb a thousand walls
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you; wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I couldn't make you love me, but I always dreamed about living in your radio
You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast
A pair of jeans that fit just right, and the radio on
We were summertime sippin', sippin'... sweet tea kissin' off of your lips
Baby, you a song, you make me wanna roll my windows down
You gotta stop in and ask Miss Bell for some of her sweet tea
Save me from this road I'm on
I dug my key into the side of his pretty little souped up 4 wheel drive
Go home, into your blue jeans; have some chicken and some baked beans
We came together, fell apart, and broke each other's hearts
Lookin' back now I can see me, and oh, man did I look cheesy
Learned that happiness on earth ain't just for high achievers
