[Bm] I'm going to rap a [G] little bit.
You [D] feel like singing?

When I hear the easy [G] street and front [A] tires.
[Bm] Back in the day, Pot [G] Farm was the place to [D] go.
Load the truck up, hit the dirt [Bm] road.
Jump the [G] barbed wire, spread the [D] word.
Light the bonfire, then call the [Bm] girls.
King in the [G] can and the Marlboro [D] man.
Jack and Jim were a few good [Bm] men when we learned how to [G] kiss, cut, and fight [D] too.
Better watch out for the boys in [Bm] blue.
In all this [G] small town, he said, [D] she said, ain't it funny how rumors [Bm] spread.
Like I know [G] some things y'all don't [D] know.
Man, this shit is getting [B] old.
[A] Mind your [G] business, watch your [D] mouth.
Before I have to knock your loud ass [Bm] out.
I'm tired of [G] talking.
I ain't [D] listening to more dirt roads.
It's what y'all [Bm] missing.
I'm chilling [G] on the dirt [D] road.
Laying back, sweating [G] like I'm George [D] Jones.
[B] Smoke blowing [G] out the window.
[D] When I smoke, it's sitting [G] in the [D] console.
[A]
[E] I'm living the [Bm] life [G] in the [D] headlights.
Gathering and missing [G] all the [D] good times.
[A]
[Bm] Still turning [Gm] off the real [D] loud driver's mask.
[E] This is [Gm] my town.
[G#]
Oh, boy, it was good.
[Bm] What are y'all doing?
We're watching the original.
I can think [G] about them good old [D] days.
The way we were raising our sons.
[Bm] We like [G] cornbread and biscuits.
[D] And if it's broke around here, we fix [Bm] it.
See, I can take [G] y'all where you need to [D] go.
Down to my hood, back in them [Bm] woods.
We do it [G] different around here, [D] that's right.
But we sure do it good, and we do it all [Bm] night.
So if you [G] really want to know how it [D] feels.
To get off the road, we'll truck to Fort [Bm] Willis.
Jump on [G] in, tell your [Bm] friends that we're raising hell with a black cop.
I'm sitting [G] on the [D] dirt road.
Laying back, swerving [G] like I'm George [D]
Jones.
[E] Smoke blowing [G] out the window.
[D] When I smoke, it's sitting [G] in the [D] console.
[A] [E] I'm living the [Bm] life [G] in the [D] headlights.
Gathering and missing [G] all the [D] good times.
[B] Still [G] turning off the real [D] loud driver's mask.
I hear the easy [G] street, it's my [D] time.
