|
North Louisiana on a saturday night |
|
I was sittin in the glow of the dashboard lights |
|
Ill never forget i was 6 years old |
|
When i heard comin out of my daddys radio |
|
Come out of my seat and said 'son of a gun' |
|
Daddy said naw thats the opry son |
|
Chorus: |
|
I heard the crowd start screamin |
|
And i started dreamin |
|
Of one day runnin |
|
With a hillbilly band |
|
Bought a gitar, learned a few chords |
|
found a few guys and a bveat up ford |
|
Pretty girls would come from miles around |
|
Like bees to honey to hear that sound |
|
All we could afford was bread and mayonaise |
|
Living for the moment when wed hit that stage |
|
Chorus: |
|
I heard the crowd start screamin |
|
And i started dreamin |
|
Of one day runnin |
|
With a hillbilly band |
|
I came to Nashville, they liked my songs |
|
I got a bus-45 feet long |
|
Bought a house to put a gold record on the wall |
|
Funny thing is im hardly there at all |
|
The money the cars, you can have that stuff |
|
Just give me what I love |
|
Chorus 2: |
|
To hear the crowd start screamin |
|
To the song that im singin |
|
The one about runnin |
|
With a hillbilly band |
