[Verse 1]
Born in the woods where the oak trees talk,
Raised on the rhythm of my grandpa’s walk.
Mama made dumplins, Daddy made talks.
I learned to shoot straight and run with the hogs
[Verse 2]
City lights called me, I packed up my boots,
Traded in the silence for the traffic and suits.
Concrete jungle, neon signs,
But I dream of the lake and the freedom for my sake
[Chorus]
So I drive all night just to breathe that air,
Feel the mud on my boots and the wind in my hair.
Got a shotgun in the truck, and a duck to hit,
I ain’t stayin’ long—just back for a little bit.
[Verse 3]
Old cabin’s leanin’, but it’s still got soul,
Whiskey in the cupboard, stories never get old.
Deer tracks in the mud, wood ducks at dawn,
I’m home for a heartbeat, then I’m gone.
[Bridge]
I ain’t built for the city, but I play the part,
Still got the woods beatin’ in my heart.
Every mile I drive, I feel more alive,
Back to the place where my roots survive.
[Chorus]
So I drive all night just to breathe that air,
Feel the mud on my boots and the wind in my hair.
Got a shotgun in the truck, and a duck to hit,
I ain’t stayin’ long—just back for a little bit.
[Outro]
One more hunt, one more song,
One more night where I belong.
Then it’s back to the grind, back to the grit,
But I’ll always come back… even just for a little bit
