We didn't have no downtown strip
We'd all pile in and take a two mile trip
To where the road runs out
Sit there and sip on whatever anybody's older brother could get
Where we worked in the dirt and fell in love
Got my heart broke, broke down my truck
Tryin' to spin out, show off in that mud
Too many times
So much has changed
But then again it ain't
Just like the scarecrows even when the wind blows
We keep our boots and our roots in these cornrows
Where we threw down and we passed it around every Friday night
Just some ol' plowboys pretending we're cowboys
We came from nothin', aw, but look at us now boys
Even when we leave here, we'll always be here wherever we go
Just like the scarecrows
I don't get back near enough
And just like these fields, yeah, we all grow up
And it takes a little more in a paper cup to get dizzy
This hundred-acre stretch is buried in my bones
Don't matter how long that I've been gone
I can be anywhere and some song comes on
And it's like I never left home
