[Verse 1] Back roads cut like scars Through the pine and clay Grandma’s screen door stuck Still held my day I can taste that peach On a July night And your red dirt calling Feels like right [Pre-Chorus] I been gone too long Been running thin Every mile I take […]

[Verse 1] I still see the porch light glowin’ On a summer night in July Bare feet runnin’ through the screen door With the whole world in our eyes We were kings of the cracked sidewalk And queens of the front yard swing Now the years sit heavy on my […]
