00:00This time, won a hundred bucks on a scratch-off game
00:06But I found more when you walked away
00:08Found peace in the quiet fire in my soul
00:12Freedom riding down a nowhere road
00:15You always thought I'd fall apart
00:18But baby, I've got a brand new start
00:21Guess you were my lucky, babe
00:24Yeah, I've been lucky since you left
00:29So here's to goodbye and gasoline breath
00:33To being lucky since you left
00:38Town gets loud when the lights go down
00:50And the barstools fill with hearts gone round
00:53Everybody's chasing that neon glow
00:56But I'm just searching for a hand to hold
01:00They say I'm restless, I don't stay long
01:03But maybe I'm just singing the wrong love song
01:06I've seen pretty smiles fade by dawn
01:09And I'm tired of waking up alone
01:12I just wanna love somebody
01:15Who don't play love like it's a game
01:18Someone who stays when it ain't easy
01:22And don't just come for the flame
01:25I trade a hundred Friday nights
01:28For one slow kiss and porch light white
01:32I ain't looking for a spark that dies
01:35I just wanna love somebody
01:38Who looks at me with quiet eyes
01:42Had a few that danced real close
01:48Whispered sweet with a whiskey ghost
01:51But the morning always tells the truth
01:54When the pillow's cold
01:56And so are you
01:57And so are you
01:58Give me jeans and a flannel heart
02:00Someone who don't tear me apart
02:03I don't need big city dreams
02:06Just a front porch and someone to believe
02:11I just wanna love somebody
02:14Who don't run when the rain rolls in
02:17Someone who holds me when I'm breaking
02:20And don't leave cracks under my skin
02:23I trade the crowd to smoke to shine
02:27For steady love I know is mine
02:30Don't need a high that fades by light
02:33I just wanna love somebody
02:36Who feels like home on a Tuesday night
02:40Maybe she's out there tired
02:56Of the same old scene
03:00Waiting on a quiet kind
03:03A man who sees through the in-between
03:07I just wanna love somebody
03:10Who don't leave me guessing why
03:13Someone who stays past the sunrise
03:17And sees forever in my eyes
03:20No silver screen, no alibi
03:23Just truth beneath the starlit sky
03:26No more ghosts and no more minds
03:29I just wanna love somebody
03:32Who stays past midnight at
03:36Yeah, more than midnight
03:42Just someone who'll stay and get it right
03:4840 hours got me going out my mind
03:49Dallas dropped another heartbreaker
04:03And over time got a ticket speeding down
04:18Oh, 65, but hell you know where I'm going
04:24Guess I really went and messed it up again
04:29My baby's gone like a tuss of wind
04:33And judging by this stone-cold state I'm in
04:36I need something strong and I ain't slowing
04:40Somebody pull me a drink
04:42Somebody bump me a smoke
04:44I'm about to get on a buzz
04:46I'm about to let it all go
04:48I've been working too hard
04:50Trying to keep up with the Joneses
04:52Y'all know how it feels
04:54When the pressure just dawns us
04:57It's Friday I'm paid and I'm on the brink
05:00So slide something strong right down this sink
05:04I can't even think
05:06Yeah, somebody pour me a drink
05:09Bourbon brown eyes
05:18Staring through the neon glow
05:20She said, boy, where you been?
05:22You look real low
05:24I said, darling, I lost her in my radio
05:28She smiled, said you ain't alone
05:31She took a shot, said here's to moving on
05:36I raised my glass
05:38Said to being gone
05:39Now we're laughing, leaning, singing country songs
05:43And I'm thinking this night won't end alone
05:47Somebody pour me a drink
05:49Somebody light me a flame
05:51I'm forgetting all the pain
05:53Ain't even remembering her name
05:55I've been breaking my back
05:57In the same old town too long
05:59Tonight I'm breaking loose
06:01Where the whiskey's strong
06:03When life feels heavy
06:05And it starts to sink
06:07Just raise it up high
06:09And clink it in sync
06:11Yeah, but it don't blink
06:13Just somebody pour me a drink
06:31Maybe this bar of stools
06:33Where it all turns around
06:35Maybe this jukebox
06:37Saves me from breaking down
06:39Maybe love's hiding in a small town sound
06:43Or just in the bottom of this glass right now
06:48Somebody pour me a drink
06:50Somebody buy her one too
06:52We're just chasing a buzz
06:54Trying to shake off the blues
06:56Let the world spin on
06:58We'll be right here to close
07:00Where the beer runs cold
07:02And the good time flows
07:04If you're running on empty
07:06And missing a link
07:08Pull up a seat son
07:10And don't even think
07:12Just smile and wink
07:14Can somebody pour me a drink?
07:17Well you can tell me
07:19Huge fun
07:20I just liked that
07:21When I cut purple
07:21I'm coming
07:22tell ис-
07:30To you
07:35Yes, I can decide
07:36To such a tight
07:37While you're running on
07:39I need to see
07:40What you're looking
07:41Let'so
07:43A few days shy of turning 80
07:59He was sitting out back
08:00Calm and steady
08:02Sipping coffee like he had all day
08:09Said, son, this world moves fast and wild
08:12But you don't have to chase it mile for mile
08:15There's wisdom in the slower way
08:18He leaned back, stared out at the sky
08:24And with a gentle smile and a knowing eye
08:27He said, let me tell you what I've learned in time
08:32Buy dirt, plant roots
08:37Find a good woman who tells you the truth
08:40Put a ring on her hand
08:42Let your knee touch the ground
08:43Love like hell and stick around
08:46Do what you love and call it work
08:50Thank the Lord and go to church
08:53Kiss your babies, count each laugh
08:56Leave your footprints in the grass
08:59Send your prayers up, let your roots grow deep
09:03That's how you build a legacy
09:06He said, I've had big dreams and some came true
09:15But none ever mattered like your grandma's do
09:19And the sound of your daddy's boots walking home
09:22We built this house with blood and nails
09:28Fought through droughts and market fails
09:31But never once did we stand here alone
09:36Son, don't trade your time for shine
09:41Cause gold fades fast, but love holds fine
09:44Here's the map, it ain't fancy, but it's mine
09:49I'd buy dirt boots
09:53Find a front porch with a sky full of truth
09:57Where you raise your kids and your grandkids too
10:00Teach them to say please and tell the truth
10:03Work real hard, but don't forget
10:06To breathe in deep and count your steps
10:10Sing when you can, cry when you must
10:13And leave behind a name they trust
10:16Send your prayers up, let your roots grow deep
10:20That's how you build a legacy
10:23And when the years go running by
10:32Like fence pole shadows at noontime
10:35You'll see the value in a simple life
10:41Buy dirt, plant roots
10:45Make your home where the wildflowers bloom
10:48Share your table past the bread
10:51Tuck your children safe in bed
10:55Give more than you ever take
10:57Stand for riding on your mistakes
11:01Let your name mean something kind
11:04Like a harvest blessed in time
11:07Send your prayers up, let your roots grow deep
11:11That's how you build a legacy
11:14Yeah, buy dirt and plant roots
11:24Yeah, buy dirt and plant roots
11:24My brother took off on a summer night
11:47Indian scout in the pale moonlight
11:50With a leather grin and a rebel's heart
11:53He chased the wind and broke Ma's heart
11:56He left a note on the kitchen floor
11:59Said I can't live behind this door
12:02That headlight cut through the prairie stars
12:05Heading west out where the dreamers are
12:09Where the hearts burn hot and the rules don't stick
12:12And the air tastes wild and the road runs thick
12:14Where the nights roll out like a running train
12:17And the whiskey heals more than it explains
12:20Where the songs get born in a beat up bar
12:24Yeah, that's life west of the line
12:28Out where the wild things are
12:32He called from Tucson with dust in his voice
12:46Said I found a girl and a brand new choice
12:49Got a dog, a trailer and a Gibson
12:51Two singing songs about folks like me and you
12:55He talked to sunsets over canyon walls
12:58Of freedom carved in concrete halls
13:01He said little brother
13:02This life ain't tame
13:04But it's worth every mile and every flame
13:07Where the stars don't sleep and the wheels don't lie
13:10And the jukebox knows when a man might cry
13:13Where the past can't chase you past the state line sign
13:16And the pain gets lost in the red sunshine
13:19Where the soul finds room and the scars turn hard
13:22Yeah, that's life west of the line
13:27Out where the wild things are
13:31One day the calls just stopped coming through
13:35But I still hear him in what I do
13:41Every time I light a smoke or tune a string
13:46I feel him riding on the desert wind
13:52Now my boots are worn but my grip is tight
13:57And I point this truck to that western light
14:00Where the dust kicks high and the stories start
14:03In a place made for broken hearts and sparks
14:06And I'll ride until I find that star
14:09That leads me west of the line
14:14Out where the wild things are
14:18Yeah, out where the wild things are
14:27I'll meet you there, brother
14:31Under the same old star
14:35That was the end of my day
14:41That was the end of my flight
14:45And I was so happy
14:48It's back to mom
14:49Zugpoo

15:18Eight long hours in a world of dirt-calloused hands
