[Verse 1]
Sun up on the tailgate
Mud on your boots
Aiden’s got the leash looped
And that old dog in pursuit
He spots a fence line rabbit
Then he’s gone like a shot
You laugh and holler after him
“Boy, don’t you lose your spot”
[Pre-Chorus]
Through the corn and the cedars
Past the creek and the bend
You two make a hard run
Like you’ve done it again
[Chorus]
Aiden and the hound
Aiden and the hound
Running that ground
All the way down
(Aiden and the hound)
Nothing slows you down
[Verse 2]
Truck bed full of shotgun shells
And a thermos of sweet tea
You say the best kind of morning
Is the one that runs free
That dog comes back muddy
With his tongue hanging low
Aiden grins and scratches his ears
Like he already knows
[Pre-Chorus]
The grass bends under thunder
The sky turns gold and wide
You and that old hound
Got the whole world by your side
[Chorus]
Aiden and the hound
Aiden and the hound
Running that ground
All the way down
(Aiden and the hound)
Nothing slows you down
[Bridge]
When the sun drops low
And the fields go still
You’ll be sitting on the porch
With that same red chill
Same dog, same boy
Same dirt on your jeans
Some things in this life
Stay just like they seem
[Chorus]
Aiden and the hound
Aiden and the hound
Running that ground
All the way down
(Aiden and the hound)
Nothing slows you down
