Summer Anthem
Verse 1
Sun’s beatin’ down on a two-lane blacktop,
Cooler in the bed and the tailgate dropped.
Pontoon’s floatin’ out where the bluegills bite,
Whole damn town’s livin’ for a Friday night.
Barefoot kids swingin’ off an old rope swing,
Cold beer sweatin’ while the crickets sing.
Girls in short shorts with them tan legs glowin’,
Got every red-blooded country boy knowin’…
Pre-Chorus
Life don’t get much better than this right here,
Windows down and not a damn worry this year.
Chorus
Turn it up loud, let the speakers scream,
This is small-town livin’, this is the American dream.
Bonfires burnin’ underneath the stars,
Dirt roads leadin’ where the wild hearts are.
Fireworks lightin’ up the midnight sky,
Red, white, and blue on the Fourth of July.
Two hundred fifty years and we’re still standin’ strong,
Raise ’em up high and sing this summer anthem song.
Verse 2
Mud on the tires and dust on my boots,
Fishin’ poles leanin’ against the old canoe.
Girls laughin’ loud with a Dixie cup raised,
Country boys wishin’ these nights never changed.
Tailgates lined up by the edge of the lake,
Radio playin’ while the shoreline shakes.
Nobody’s worried ‘bout tomorrow today,
We’re just makin’ memories that’ll never fade.
Bridge
Here’s to the folks who built this land,
With calloused hearts and work-worn hands.
Here’s to freedom, family, faith, and friends,
And prayin’ these good times never end.
Final Chorus
Turn it up loud, let the speakers scream,
This is small-town livin’, this is the American dream.
Bonfires burnin’, everybody sing,
Cold drinks up while the church bells ring.
Fireworks paintin’ up the midnight sky,
Stars and stripes flyin’ on the Fourth of July.
Two hundred fifty years, we’re still flyin’ that flag,
Still raisin’ hell with a little hometown swag.
So if you see us out where the backroads bend,
Know we’re chasin’ sunsets with our family and friends.
From the lake to the fields where the old pines stand,
This is our home… this is our Summer Anthem.
