Hella Hit Song
[Verse 1]
Every time I see a young man catch a copperhead
I always think of the Steve Earl Band, yeah
Copperhead Road
Don't lie, you already know
And when I see a young girl in a hand-me-down sedan
With a Browning sticker on the back, I smile and grin
'Cause I know
She's chasin' a hella hit song
[Chorus]
Chasin' a boy with a troubled-fun grin
A fresh flannel shirt with the tail tucked in
And his run's gonna turn to a jog
And a good girl's gonna make a bad boy fall
Before you know it, she's your country star
Born in Music City, from the country parts
No red carpet in this field to fall
They're just walkin' right into a hella hit song
[Verse 2]
If I never grew up on the outskirts
This good old boy probably couldn't write a verse
It's been some heartbreak nights, some parkin' lot fights
Petrol, beer runs, and girls dressin' for the one they like
Her daddy sayin', "Hold up, where you goin'?"
Even though he knows he was one of them ones
And that's how he met her momma when they had their first kiss
Walkin' down the same path, hummin' somethin' like
[Chorus]
Chasin' a boy with a troubled-fun grin
A fresh flannel shirt with the tail tucked in
And his run's gonna turn to a jog
And a good girl's gonna make a bad boy fall
Before you know it she's your country star
Born in Music City, from the country parts
No red carpet in this field to fall
They're just walkin' right into a hella hit song
[Bridge]
If there's one thing I learned 'bout livin' out here
It's more than cold beer and the color of a John Deere
More than a boy in a truck bein' crazy
If sometimes he didn't ride with a sweet young lady
[Chorus]
Who was chasin' a boy with a troubled-fun grin
Fresh flannel shirt with the tail tucked in
And his run done turned to a jog
And that good girl sure makes a bad boy fall
Before you know it he's your country star
Singin' out his heart for the country parts
No red carpet in this field to fall
They're just walkin' right into some hella hit songs
