Hot Damn

Verse 1

Sunset bleedin’ over that county line

Dust kickin’ up from these old back tires

Radio cracklin’, whiskey in my veins

Got that outlaw rhythm runnin’ through my name

Boots on the dash, feel the wind cut clean

Cornfield shadows and a gasoline dream

She’s got a wildfire smile and a red lip grin

Says, “Boy, you don’t know the trouble I’m in”

Pre-Chorus

She moves like a match in a room full of hay

One spark and we’re both gonna drift away

Chorus

Hot damn, when she takes my hand

Whole small town don’t stand a chance

Bonfire bright in the midnight land

Yeah, we burn like that, hot damn

Heartbeat loud like a backroad band

She kisses me slow, I barely can stand

Lord have mercy, I’m her biggest fan

Every time she says my name—hot damn

Verse 2

Pickup headlights cut through the dark

Crickets keep time like a rhythm guitar

She’s laughin’ loud in a denim dress

Barefoot dancin’ in a sweet southern mess

We ain’t rich but we feel like gold

Two young rebels never do what we’re told

Sheriff’s lights way off in the bend

But we ain’t done and we ain’t slowin’ down again

Pre-Chorus

She whispers low, “Boy, hold me tight”

Like we’re stealing forever from the night

Chorus

Hot damn, when she takes my hand

Whole small town don’t stand a chance

Bonfire bright in the midnight land

Yeah, we burn like that, hot damn

Heartbeat loud like a backroad band

She kisses me slow, I barely can stand

Lord have mercy, I’m her biggest fan

Every time she says my name—hot damn

Bridge

Windows down and the moon hangin’ low

Stars look jealous of the fire we show

Ain’t no preacher, ain’t no plan

Just her and me and a promised land

She leans in close, says, “Don’t slow down”

We leave tire marks on this one-horse town

Final Chorus

Hot damn, when she takes my hand

Feels like heaven in a gravel stand

Bonfire bright in the midnight land

Yeah, we burn like that, hot damn

If lovin’ her is a sinking sand

I’ll go down smilin’, understand

She’s my wild, my heart, my brand

And every night with her—hot damn
