Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] [Band tuning, crowd noise rising] (one, two…) [Verse 1] Rust on the tailgate Mud on my boots Tin roof cooler Full of brown proof Sun just sinkin’ Crickets start to chime Hookin’ up a nightcrawler To buy myself some time [Chorus] It’s backwoods, bottle, and a line Old cane pole leanin’ in the pines If I catch a bass or I just catch a buzz Either way I’m doin’ just fine (oh I’m fine) Got a good creek runnin’ through my soul Little campfire glow in these eyes Backwoods, bottle, and a line That’s my kind of Saturday night [Verse 2] Truck bed blanket Radio low Smoke from the driftwood Hangin’ in my clothes Buddy in the front seat Passed out, hat down I’m talkin’ to the moon Like it’s a one-horse town [Chorus] It’s backwoods, bottle, and a line Old cane pole leanin’ in the pines If I catch a bass or I just catch a buzz Either way I’m doin’ just fine (yeah I’m fine) Got a good creek runnin’ through my soul Little campfire glow in these eyes Backwoods, bottle, and a line That’s my kind of Saturday night [Bridge] Mama said I’d drown out here But the water keeps me sane Every cast is a little prayer Drippin’ whiskey, driftin’ blame Got a past I ain’t proud of Got a future I don’t know But this old river knows my name And it still lets me go [Chorus] It’s backwoods, bottle, and a line Old cane pole leanin’ in the pines If I catch a bass or I just catch a buzz Either way I’m doin’ just fine (hey!) Got a good creek runnin’ through my soul Little campfire glow in these eyes Backwoods, bottle, and a line That’s my kind of Saturday night [Outro] Backwoods, bottle, and a line (raise ‘em up now) Creek keeps rollin’, so do I One more cast, one more try Backwoods, bottle, and a line Good Lord, that’s a life I don’t mind

country, Live bar-band country: gritty male vocals, twangy Telecaster hooks, upright piano fills. Verses lean on brushed snare and warm bass; chorus kicks into stomp-clap energy with stacked gang shouts. Fiddle and slide guitar trade short licks, last chorus double-length with big crowd-sung ad-libs and a shout-out vamp to close.
