It was laying pennies on the rails and
Sneaking off to chew red man
It was a Friday night win followed by a Saturday bruise
It was the first blue ribbon my dad and I drank
Baptized on Glenville Lake
A tear in her eyes the night we lost all we had to lose
That tobacco town where I grew up
A tailgate down on a jacked up truck
A ring we earned cause we owned that state
A tombstone with my daddy's name
Now this six string dream on a crazy course
Has got my compass losing north
And I need someone to remind me who I am
Carolina Can
It was faded blue denim on franklin street
A He's Not buzz, a house band beat
It was a summer heat dragging me to a 5th year fall
It was classes skipped cause a room couldn't teach
What we learned 3 days on Wrightsville beach
With my high school love,
short hair and that sweet home-town southern draw
Now two times zones 10 states away
Another night another show to play
Well hey Mr Taylor, she ain't only on your mind
