Smoke

Laying back against this windshield

Parked out in this Georgia red field

This is where we burn our summer nights

Moonlit lipstick kisses on the hood of that tacoma

We were seventeen, going on free and wild

She was smoking hot, a whiskey shot, a cherry coke

Sparks were flying every time I smelled smoke

I'm sitting by a bonfire watching her swaying

Me and my buddies and the guitar playing

Sipping on forties on a Saturday night

Buzzing through a chorus of 'dixieland delight'

High as the stars in the milky way

Those summer days drifted away

But she'll always float

Back through my mind like smoke

July flames, October ashes

Southern skin and blue jean flashes

Strike a match and light a memory

We never said goodbye, we let it fly into thin air

Tonight I'm stoned on long-gone love so strong I swear

I'm sitting by a bonfire watching her swaying

Me and my buddies and the guitar playing

Sipping on forties on a Saturday night

Buzzing through a chorus of 'dixieland delight'

High as the stars in the milky way

Those summer days drifted away

But she'll always float

Back through my mind like smoke

She was smoking hot, a whiskey shot, a cherry coke

Sparks were flying every time I smelled smoke

I'm sitting by a bonfire watching her swaying

Me and my buddies and the guitar playing

Sipping on forties on a Saturday night

Buzzing through a chorus of 'dixieland delight'

High as the stars in the milky way

Those summer days drifted away

But she'll always float

Back through my mind like smoke
