I get home from a long day, put on the radio Lookin' for some country soul, but I don't find it, no It's a dirt road free for all, some old boys sayin' they're outlaws, They dress the part and they talk the talk You know they've been taught to walk the walk These boys think they're tough like they been robbin' banks Cause they name drop Johnny Cash and they name drop poor old Hank

lol, I'm from a town of 9000 people, and in my state that still wasn't a "small town". We had a pizza joint! People drove to our town because we had a pizza joint. Douche has no idea what it's like being in a small town.
