I've got to buy some shoes
These ones are getting loose
My feet are shrinking in the sun, and it ain't fun
But it looks like rain up ahead in forty miles
A big rainbow took the blue sky
I'm gonna tell my mamma I love her so
And thank you for giving me these bones o gold
I'm gonna run from my home
Jump in the river, and let the water soak the sin in my soul
Fine time we all crossed lines
Make the music that makes us feel fine
Rednecks on sundecks hearing a hillside Romeo say
Boys, this is the good shit, so come on, y'all, and eat a little bit
And if I ever go back home, I'm gonna set
I'm gonna tell my mamma I love her so
And thank you for giving me these bones o' gold
I'm gonna run from my home
Jump in the river, and let the water soak the sin in my soul
Don't even say a word, it confuses me
What he says to do is that we don't have to
We don't have to
