You ever wonder why country songs say the same old thing
Like a broken record skippin’ down on main
Pretty girls, pickups and cut-off jeans?
You know what I mean
Dirt roads, corn rows and homemade wine
Juke joints, jumpin’ on the county line
Heard ‘em sing about it a million times
But I don't mind
As long as there's a small town and a Saturday night
Blue jean babies in the full moonlight
Tip back your Dixie, howl at the stars
Every time you hear that slide guitar
And your baby's on the tailgate
And you're stealin’ those kisses to a little George Strait
That's how we rock, and that's how we roll
As long as there's country on the radio
There's always going to be a party out in the pines
Always going to be a shot up highway sign
Paper sack full of beer and a jar of shine
From time to time
There's always going to be people tryin’ to run us down
Sayin’ we ain’t got nothin’ on a big town
I bet they'd come around
If they came on down
As long as there's a small town and a Saturday night
Blue jean babies in the full moonlight
Tip back your Dixie, howl at the stars
Every time you hear that slide guitar
And your baby's on the tailgate
And you're stealin’ those kisses to a little George Strait
That's how we rock, and that's how we roll
As long as there's country on the radio
There's always goin’ to be a part of me
Kicking back in BFE
Yeah, that's how it's always goin’ to be
As long as there's a small town and a Saturday night
Blue jean babies in the full moonlight
Tip back your Dixie, howl at the stars
Every time you hear that slide guitar
And your baby's on the tailgate
And you're stealin’ those kisses to a little George Strait
That's how we rock, and that's how we roll
As long as there's country on the radio
Some country on the radio
As long as there's a small town
Saturday nights
Blue jean babies
Yeah, tip back your Dixie
Stealin’ those kisses
