County Lines Lyrics

Say it, son, you know it deep in your core

You're always looking, always wanting more

Say, son, do you wonder what's on the other side?

You've been chasing that truth, and you'll find it down the road tonight

They call you crazy, maybe they're right

But who am I to judge your fight?

The gravel cracks, under your tires tonight

As the stars align to light your prime

And the wheels start rolling beyond that county line

Takin' ole dad's truck down Highway 31

Engine roaring, chasing the setting sun

Scratchin' the sky where dreams collide

Burnin' it all like it's your last ride

Go ahead, son, keep it in high, leave it all behind

Go where nobody's drawin' county lines

Even the dry fields beg for the rain's reply

Beyond those lines, there's treasure that never dies

Pines stand tall, soaked in earthy gold

And a man feels whole when he breaks their hold

Out there's a place where the heart runs true

Freed by the whispers of stars and Jimmie's blues

Even the little ones stop to stare

At the world unbound by rules and care

Takin' ole dad's truck down Highway 31

Engine roaring, chasing the setting sun

Scratchin' the sky where dreams collide

Burnin' it all like it's your last ride

Go ahead, son, keep it in high, leave it all behind

Go where nobody's drawin' county lines

Every mile whispers"Don't look back"

Staring in wonder at a sea of black

It's not the place that makes a name

It's the lighter inside that drives the flame

Takin' ole dad's truck down Highway 31

Engine roaring, chasing the setting sun

Scratchin' the sky where dreams collide

Burnin' it all like it's your last ride

Go ahead, son, keep it in high, leave it all behind

Go where nobody's drawin' county lines

The dust fades quiet, the road stretches wide

Where nobody's burdened, and nothing's confined
