Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Bare feet on a red dirt road
Dust on my daddy’s old Ford
Snuck our first sip in the backseat
Laughed till the stars got bored
Radio low
But our hearts loud
Neon over that rodeo crowd
You took my hand in the pale moon glow
Said
"Don’t you ever let this go"
[Chorus]
We were growin’ up under Texas skies
Countin’ every star in your blue-green eyes
Lone Star bottles on a rusted tailgate
Two-step turnin’ into stayin’ out late
Cowboy hats
Tight jeans
Long slow kisses (mm)
Strong whiskey burnin’
Better friends in the distance
Yeah
Every little heartbreak
Every little high
We were learnin’ how to live it right
Just growin’ up in Texas night by night
[Verse 2]
Friday at the fairground lights
Boot scuffs on the plywood floor
DJ spinnin’ that same old song
We’d heard a thousand times before
You’d spin around
Fringe on your vest
Say
"This small town’s still the best"
We’d toast to dreams we couldn’t name
Swear we’d never stay the same
[Chorus]
We were growin’ up under Texas skies
Countin’ every star in your blue-green eyes
Lone Star bottles on a rusted tailgate
Two-step turnin’ into stayin’ out late
Cowboy hats
Tight jeans
Long slow kisses (oh)
Strong whiskey burnin’
Better friends in the distance
Yeah
Every little heartbreak
Every little high
We were learnin’ how to live it right
Just growin’ up in Texas night by night
[Bridge]
We traded tassels for barroom tabs
Cheap perfume and leather scabs
Some moved on
Some settled down
Some still close this shaky town
Raise that glass for who we were
For every "maybe
" every "sir"
If I could go back
I’d do it twice (twice)
Same dirt road
Same reckless life
[Chorus]
We were growin’ up under Texas skies
Countin’ every star in your blue-green eyes
Lone Star bottles on a rusted tailgate
Two-step turnin’ into stayin’ out late
Cowboy hats
Tight jeans
Long slow kisses (yeah)
Strong whiskey burnin’
Better friends in the distance
Yeah
Every little heartbreak
Every little high
We were learnin’ how to live it right
Just growin’ up in Texas night by night
[Outro]
Texas nights
Texas nights
Strong whiskey
Better friends for life
