[Verse 1]'Round here there ain't no sandy beachNo coconut drinks with a fancy nameYou ain't gon'?see?no penthouse suitesBut?I can tell you somethin' better?if you ask meIt's a sun-baked rope swing, fishin' in?the?darkNo?bobber needed and?I ain't got?no night crawlersBut you can crawl on me in the Stepside ZAnd we can drive where the mud and the asphalt meets[Chorus]Dear young gun go soak up the sun'Til your neck turns red and your truck don't runGet those docks hotter than wood stove coalsWith a hometown girl that you always knownDon't worry about that downtown buzz'Cause the shine's more smooth where you come fromNo camera, no lights and no cut scenesJust everlastin' countryEverlastin' country[Verse 2]What's a five star place to a wide open space?What's an Uber driver to a loud Chevrolet?What's a downtown girl to a woman like you?Eyes 90s model Ford, two-tone teal blueWhat's red high heels to your little bare feet?I don't want a reservation 'less it's somewhere in the weedsI don't wish upon a time, 'cause 'these times', I'm livin' theseIn a nowhere town in middle Tennessee[Chorus]Dear young gun go soak up the sun'Til your neck turns red and your truck don't runGet those docks hotter than wood stove coalsWith a hometown girl that you always knownDon't worry about that downtown buzz'Cause the shine's more smooth where you come fromNo camera, no lights and no cut scenesJust everlastin' countryEverlastin' country[Guitar Solo][Chorus]Dear young gun go soak up the sun'Til your neck turns red and your truck don't runGet those docks hotter than wood stove coalsWith a down home girl that you always knownDon't worry about that downtown buzz'Cause the shine's more smooth where you come fromNo camera, no lights and no cut scenesJust everlastin' countryEverlastin' country
