10-4
[Intro]
Yeah

[Verse 1]
Our nights used to consist of that old bus behind Ben's store
Spendin’ hours on the train tracks with nowhere to go
The country was the very first place I learned to lay low
Like a dog in the summer heat underneath a boat
This is how it goes, ATV's on them country roads
Hicks in the sticks they gettin' blowed
In the place where the cops hardly ever go
’Cause it's too deep in the grove
A place where barely anyone goes
You can be a mile away and smell meth cookin' on the stove
But, I'm not braggin', I'm just tryin' to explain where I come from
Most people have low income, some win and it's a lump sum
People fish in the dark like Nitty Gritty
Some dip like Skinny and Grizzly
I’m ’bout to run the country bro so y'all can have the city

[Chorus]
I grew up in South Bama on a backroad
Where everybody knows somebody you know
Late at night you can hear that train whistle blow
And when we hang up the phone we say 10-4
I grew up in South Bama on a backroad
Where everybody knows somebody you know
Late at night you can hear that train whistle blow
And when we hang up the phone we say 10-4
[Verse 2]
I’m into bumpin' music kinda like Bocephus in his prime
I'm talkin' like "White Lightning" and "A County Boy Can Survive"
This is a "Family Tradition" the same way I raise my children
Never judge someone by they color or by their appearance
Do y’all know about this life?
Long dirt roads and trucks with pipes
In the Crown Vic sittin' up real nice
That's how it gets done in the pine tree meadows
Deep back sense that can't be fixed
In the South we all talk like this
We eat catfish with a bowl of grits
It tastes so good like a first kiss
I'm goin' in like my homie Joe Stixx on the beat
We both be out in the woods like a coyote in heat
I'm tryna catch a come up like the homeless guy stuck on his string
Then head on back home so I can make all of my ends meet

[Chorus]
I grew up in South Bama on a backroad
Where everybody knows somebody you know
Late at night you can hear that train whistle blow
And when we hang up the phone we say 10-4
I grew up in South Bama on a backroad
Where everybody knows somebody you know
Late at night you can hear that train whistle blow
And when we hang up the phone we say 10-4
[Bridge]
Shouts out to all my day one's fightin' to stay out them streets
Only a couple still by me when things started gettin' grimy
I still bump that Lil Weezy mixed with some old rock-n-roll
I know that train still runs at night but I heard they quit burnin' coal
Shouts out to all my day one's fightin' to stay out them streets
Only a couple still by me when things started gettin' grimy
I still bump that Lil Weezy mixed with some old rock-n-roll
'Bout to run the country like a kid goin' to the swimmin' hole

[Chorus]
I grew up in South Bama on a backroad
Where everybody knows somebody you know
Late at night you can hear that train whistle blow
And when we hang up the phone we say 10-4
I grew up in South Bama on a backroad
Where everybody knows somebody you know
Late at night you can hear that train whistle blow
And when we hang up the phone we say 10-4
