[Verse 1]
I was born off a two-lane bend
Down in Magnet Cove, Arkansas
Mama’s screen door slammed all spring
Daddy worked that red clay farm
We got Friday fish and a porch light glow
And a dog that knew my name
If you want to know where I come from
It’s a little dot you can’t erase
[Pre-Chorus]
Knew those hills before my own last name
Knew that creek by the taste of rain
Little white church and a county line
That old back road still runs through my veins
[Chorus]
Magnet Cove boy
Born and raised
Magnet Cove boy
That’s where I stayed
Red dirt roots and a heart that won’t fold
Magnet Cove boy
I’m Arkansas gold
(Magnet Cove boy)
[Verse 2]
Granddad taught me how to cast a line
How to read the sky for snow
He said the world gets loud and fast
But this land moves slow
I’ve chased some dreams out past those pines
Come back with dust on my boots
’Cause every road I ever loved
Led me right back to these roots
[Pre-Chorus]
Knew those hills before my own last name
Knew that creek by the taste of rain
Little white church and a county line
That old back road still runs through my veins
[Chorus]
Magnet Cove boy
Born and raised
Magnet Cove boy
That’s where I stayed
Red dirt roots and a heart that won’t fold
Magnet Cove boy
I’m Arkansas gold
(Magnet Cove boy)
[Bridge]
If I get lost, I get found right here
By that cypress bend and a mama’s tear
A hand-me-down song and a heaven-sent flame
I’ll wear this town like I wear my name
[Chorus]
Magnet Cove boy
Born and raised
Magnet Cove boy
That’s where I stayed
Red dirt roots and a heart that won’t fold
Magnet Cove boy
I’m Arkansas gold
(Magnet Cove boy)
