Everlasting Country

'Round here there ain't no sandy beach
No coconut drinks with a fancy name
You ain't gon' see no penthouse suites
But I can tell you somethin'
Better if you ask me
It's a sun baked rope swing
Fishin' in the dark
No bobber needed and I ain't
Got no night crawlers
But you can crawl on me in the Stepside Z
And we can drive where the
Mud and the asphalt meets

Dear young gun, go soak up the sun
'Til your neck turns red and
Your truck don't run
Get those docks hotter than wood stove coals
With a hometown girl that you always known
Don't worry about that downtown buzz
'Cause the shine's more smooth
Where you come from
No camera, no lights, and no cutscenes
Just everlastin' country everlastin' country

What's a five-star place to
A wide-open space?
What's an Uber driver to a loud Chevrolet?
What's a downtown girl to a woman like you?
Eyes 90s model Ford, two-tone teal blue
What's red high heels to
Your little bare feet?
I don't want a reservation 'less
It's somewhere in the weeds
I don't wish upon a
Time, 'cause 'these times', i'm livin' these
In a nowhere town in middle Tennessee

Dear young gun, go soak up the sun
'Til your neck turns red and
Your truck don't run
Get those docks hotter than wood stove coals
With a hometown girl that you always known
Don't worry about that downtown buzz
'Cause the shine's more smooth
Where you come from
No camera, no lights, and no cut scenes
Just everlastin' country everlastin' country

Dear young gun, go soak up the sun
'Til your neck turns red and
Your truck don't run
Get those docks hotter than wood stove coals
With a downhome girl that you always known
Don't worry about that downtown buzz
'Cause the shine's more smooth
Where you come from
No camera, no lights, and no cutscenes
Just everlastin' country everlastin' country
