I need to lean on a truck with five old friends Tell old lies and then tell 'em again Ride 33 'til it hits the river Throw cans in the bed 'til the moon's just a sliver Wanna see my name on a dive bar wall Where the ceilings ain't, but the beers are tall There's something 'bout a city like this Makes me miss what I grew up with
Red necks, red letters, red dirt One light, one bar, one church Where the Lord gets thanked and the shine gets drank While an outback brush pile burns Yeah, I've been away, way too long But tonight I'm headed back home 'Cause when I need to find me There's only three things that'll work Red necks, red letters, red dirt
I need to hear mama pray 'til the rolls get cold For them hometown folks that she says I know My soul's a little dirty 'cause my boots are too clean It's been too long since I've seen
Red necks, red letters, red dirt One light, one bar, one church Where the Lord gets thanked and the shine gets drank While an outback brush pile burns Yeah, I've been away, way too long But tonight I'm headed back home 'Cause when I need to find me There's only three things that'll work Red necks, red letters, red dirt Red necks, red letters, red dirt, oh
Yeah, I bet by now they're missin' me So I ain't stopping 'til I see
Red necks, red letters, red dirt One light, one bar, one church Where the Lord gets thanked and the shine gets drank While an outback brush pile burns Yeah, I've been away, way too long But tonight I'm headed back home 'Cause when I need to find me There's only three things that'll work
Red necks, red letters, red dirt, oh Red necks, red letters, red dirt Red necks, red letters, red dirt
