Way Out Here
Josh Thompson
Our houses are protected
By the good Lord and a gun
And you might meet 'em both
If you show up here not welcome, son
Our necks are burnt, our roads are dirt
And our trucks ain't clean
The dogs run lose, we smoke, we chew
And fry everything out here, way out here
We won't take a dime
If we ain't earned it
When it comes to weight
Brother, we pull our own
If it's our backwoods way of livin' you're concerned with
You can leave us alone
We're about John Wayne, Johnny Cash and John Deere
Way out here
We got a fightin' side a mile wide
But we pray for peace
'Cause it's mostly us
That end up servin' overseas
If it was up to me I'd love to see
This country run
Like it used to be, like it oughta be
Just like it's done out here, way out here
'Cause we won't take a dime
If we ain't earned it
When it comes to weight
Brother, we pull our own
If it's our backwoods way of livin' you're concerned with
You can leave us alone
We're about John Wayne, Johnny Cash and John Deere
Way out here, way out here
We won't take a dime
If we ain't earned it
When it comes to weight
Brother, we pull our own
If it's our backwoods way of livin' you're concerned with
You can leave us alone
We're about John Wayne, Johnny Cash and John Deere
Yeah, John Wayne, Johnny Cash and John Deere
Way out here, way out here
Our houses are protected
By the good Lord and a gun
And you might meet 'em both
If you show up here not welcome, son
