Battery Lyrics

This dirt has my blood on it
And these rocks
Have my skin on them

These big tall trees
As tall as the eye can see
Have my hammered nails in them
From back when I was a kid

And all the cops in the one horse town
They know my first name
They know the truck I drive
They know I'm not here to stay

So get ready I'm tying one on
I'm living a country song
I got my work clothes on
I ain't going down
'Til the sun comes up

A bottle of whiskey
On my old stomping ground
Brings me around
To the all familiar faces I need
To recharge my battery
These rivers I have swam in
And these backgrounds
Are on their own

Like the back of my hand
Like my granddaddy said
This worlds going straight to hell
Like a snowball straight to hell

And all the cops in the one horse town
They know me by my first name
They know the truck I drive
They know I'm not here to stay

So get ready I'm tying one on
I'm living a country song
I got my work clothes on
I ain't going down
'Til the sun comes up

A bottle of whiskey
On my old stomping ground
Brings me around
To the all familiar places I need
To recharge my battery
So get ready I'm tying one on
I'm living my country song
I got my work clothes on
I ain't going down
'Til the sun comes up

A bottle of whiskey
On my old stomping ground
Brings me around
To the all familiar places I need
To recharge my battery

To recharge my battery
To recharge my battery
