Tailgate Howl
(hey, hey!)
Got a lifted three-quarter ton rolling slow Down the red-dirt path where
the wild pines grow Tailgate dropped and the cooler is packed Got
a blue-tick hound
riding in the back
Sun’s sinking low, burning orange and gold Yeah,
the heat is on and the drinks are cold
Welcome to the Tailgate County tonight!
Got the riverbank glowing in the headlights Every truck in the state
is pulling on in Yeah,
the party starts where the pavement ends!
(hell yeah!)
Dust is kicking up from twenty-four tires Someone brought a guitar,
someone lit a fire Got the radio playing that homegrown sound With
the best looking girls from all around
Welcome to the Tailgate County tonight!
Got the riverbank glowing in the headlights
Every truck in the state is pulling on in Yeah,
the party starts where the pavement ends!
No city walls, just the open sky
Watching the sparks from the bonfire fly Yeah,
we're all family down on this shore
We’re gonna sing it till we can’t no more!
Where the pavement ends!
Yeah, in Tailgate County! (woohoo!)
