Lyrics to 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 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 then 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 not cut scenes
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 then 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 not 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 then 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 not cut scenes
Just everlastin' country
Everlastin' country
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 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 then 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 not cut scenes
Just everlastin' country
Everlastin' country
What's a five star place to a wide open space?
