[Verse 1]
Well, it's been a long time
Since I flew past that welcome sign
Smelled the sweet of them pines
And it's honeysuckle, belt buckle paradise
Oh, that wrap-around town you thought that you owned
Where you learned how to live, yeah, until you got gone
And you think that you change, but you find that you don't
'Cause you can't outrun what you're raised up on

[Chorus]
You can't take the good out of the good ol' boy
Can't fake a slow, steady, heavy drawl
Don't know a day without breaking out
Some "Hell yeah," some "Yes, ma'am," some "Hey, y'all"
Good Lord's thе first one you thank
When your ride-or-diе's beside you with gas in the tank
You might not stay, but you don't ever leave
When your down home runs deep

[Verse 2]
Those Friday night lights
They're shining just a little bit brighter now
And that cotton ball sky
Looks the same, but there's a few more looking down
And I hope that I'm making 'em proud and I'm showing 'em how
Yeah, I'm showing 'em how

[Chorus]
You can't take the good out of the good ol' boy
Can't fake a slow, steady, heavy drawl
Don't know a day without breaking out
Some "Hell yeah," some "Yes, ma'am," some "Hey, y'all"
Good Lord's the first one you thank
When your ride-or-die's beside you with gas in the tank
You might not stay, but you don't ever leave
When your down home runs deep

[Bridge]
Well, that wrap-around town you thought that you owned
Where you learned how to live, yeah, until you got gone
And you think that you change, but you find that you don't
'Cause you can't outrun what you're raised up on

[Chorus]
You can't take the good out of the good ol' boy
Can't fake a slow, steady, heavy drawl
Don't know a day without breaking out
Some "Hell yeah," some "Yes, ma'am," some "Hey, y'all"
Good Lord's the first one you thank
When your ride-or-die's beside you with gas in the tank
You might not stay, but you don't ever leave
When your down home runs deep
When your down home runs deep

Chase Rice

Country music maverick Chase Rice has become one of country music’s most exciting figures since arriving in Nashville, building a loyal fan base across the country through his energetic live shows and gaining the attention of music critics and industry professionals alike with his edgy, eclectic sound. The Tar Heel State native recently released his first taste of new music with “Lonely If You Are,” now available on all digital platforms and climbing the charts at Country radio. The song follows his sophomore album, Lambs & Lions, released with Broken Bow Records in 2017 and featuring two-week chart-topper “Eyes On You” – Rice’s first No. 1 as an artist and the most-streamed song of his career with more than 200 million streams and counting. Lambs & Lions followed Ignite the Night, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums and No. 3 on the all-genre chart, producing a pair of Top 5 hits; the Platinum-certified “Ready Set Roll” and “Gonna Wanna Tonight.” After supporting Kenny Chesney’s The Big Revival Tour, Rice has consistently sold out 2,500-3,000 seat venues on his own headlining tours, plus served as direct support on the Luke Bryan Farm Tour 2018. His current headlining AM/PM Tour runs through the rest of 2019 before his The Pint of Anything Tour hits Europe in early 2020.
