Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I watched one video on living off the land
Bought a hat, a knife, and a five-year plan
Sold my laptop, called my landlord a leech
Then found out turnips don't grow overnight from speech
I built a little shack from a pallet and a dream
The roof leaks harder than my Wi-Fi stream
I tried to milk a goat, it looked me in the eye
Now we have an understanding: I don't and neither does she, goodbye
[Chorus]
I wanna leave the tech behind, disappear into the trees
Eat what I grow and kill, live rugged, wild, and free
But I can't tell poison ivy from a salad garnish yet
And this here bug bite's getting bigger by the minute, I regret
I wanna be a woodsman, king of my domain
I'd be dead in a week, but I'd die without a password change
[Verse 2]
I planted beans in rows I measured with a tape
The deer ate every one and left me droppings shaped like grapes
I dug a well, hit a rock, then hit another one
The creek is uphill somehow; physics says I'm done
I smoked some fish and made the neighbors call the cops
Turns out smoke from a chimney means the modern world still knocks
I tried to catch a rabbit, lost a shoe and gained a scar
That rabbit's probably telling all his friends how soft we city people are
[Chorus]
I wanna leave the tech behind, disappear into the trees
Eat what I grow and kill, live rugged, wild, and free
But I can't start a fire unless the lighter's full of gas
And every survival show neglects the part where you must wash your ass
I wanna be a woodsman, king of my domain
I'd be dead in a week, but I'd die without a password change
[Bridge]
So if you see me camping, bring a charger and some soup
A blanket, bug spray, and a very patient group
I'll unplug for fifteen minutes, maybe twenty if I can
Then I'll post a photo captioned: "Back to basics, man"
[Final Chorus]
I wanna leave the tech behind, disappear into the trees
Eat what I grow and kill, live rugged, wild, and free
But my tomatoes need a tutorial, my axe is mostly décor
And I just googled "how to google" from the cabin floor
I wanna be a woodsman, king of my domain
I'd be dead in a week, but I'd die without a password change
Yeah, I'd be dead in a week, so send a pizza down the lane
[Outro]
No bars, no screens, no signal—what a beautiful retreat
Wait, I need to check the weather and reserve a place to eat

Style
Upbeat modern country with a brisk two-step groove around บpm 126, acoustic guitar strumming, banjo hooks, fiddle fills, punchy kick and snare, warm electric bass, occasional handclaps, and polished radio-country production. Use conversational male lead vocals with comic timing, a confident singalong chorus, brief spoken-style asides, and dynamic lifts into each chorus. Keep the arrangement buoyant and glossy while the lyrics undercut the fantasy with practical failures and self-awareness.
