🎵 INTRO (Spoken / Cool Drawl)
Yeah…
If you see that smoke curlin’ up them Greene County hills?
You already know what’s goin’ on.
We from the woods, son…
Follow the smoke—
It’ll lead you home.
⸻
🎤 VERSE 1 (Updated for Greene County)
We the folks from the hollers where the pine trees lean,
Where the backwoods roads stay muddy but clean.
A place where neighbors wave when they pass your drive,
And a handshake’s strong like a promise to survive.
Ain’t no big city glow, but the heart shines bright,
And the smoke from the pit is our porch light.
If you hungry for respect, you gon’ get that too—
’Cause the woods raise hard workers with a heart that’s true.
Fire glowin’ in the pit like a beacon at night,
And every lost soul gets fed on sight.
No drama in the hills, no hate in the fold—
Just Hoosier-made love with a smoke ring bold.
⸻
🎶 CHORUS
Follow the smoke—
You’ll find hearts wide open, that’s how we live.
Follow the smoke—
Where the smiles run deep and the food we give.
Follow the smoke—
You ain’t just a guest, you part of the crew.
Follow the smoke—
Hoosier hospitality comin’ right through.
⸻
🎤 VERSE 2
We from woods where the dirt meets the limestone roots,
Where a man earns respect by his deeds, not his boots.
Where Mama Smoke waves with that warm front-porch grin,
Sayin’, “Grab a plate, baby—come on in.”
Brisket hittin’ rich with that backwoods soul,
Ribs stackin’ flavor like a miner stackin’ coal.
Chicken kissed slow by that hickory rise—
That Great White magic in every bite-size.
We don’t flex, don’t brag, but the love goes hard,
Hoosier hospitality like a greeting card.
Set your burdens down—let your heartbeat slow,
’Cause you safe in the hills of the G-County glow.
⸻
🎶 CHORUS (Bigger)
Follow the smoke—
You’ll find hearts wide open, that’s how we live.
Follow the smoke—
Where the smiles run deep and the food we give.
Follow the smoke—
You ain’t just a guest, you part of the crew.
Follow the smoke—
Hoosier hospitality comin’ right through.
⸻
🔥 BRIDGE (Spoken)
Woods raised us.
Hills shaped us.
Smoke saved us.
And anyone hungry—
We got a place for ya.
⸻
🎶 FINAL CHORUS
Follow the smoke—
It’s a Hoosier hug wrapped in hickory flame.
Follow the smoke—
Where the welcome’s real and the love’s the same.
Follow the smoke—
Come on in, we saved a spot for you…
Follow the smoke—
Great White Smoke, that’s the Hoosier truth.
