Bars Back Home - Live

I've been in honky tonks and old dive bars

Clear across this country

Drank beach-front beers and big city shots

Cost a little too much money

This guitar's taken me all kind of places

My daddy's only seen on TV

I love what I do and the places I've seen

But the one thing I've learned about me

I'm a little more bars back home, beer from a bottle

Hidin' in the corner of an old map dot

One-man band playin' Black Water

Knowin' every truck in the parkin' lot

I can have a good time anywhere I go

But give me the neon that frees my soul

'Cause a hurt don't heal and a buzz don't feel

Like it does in the bars back home, ah

♪

If I'm gonna take me a Sunday drive

I'd rather it be at sundown

If I'm ever gonna settle down

It's only gonna be in one town

I'm always gonna be that good ol' boy

Blue jeans and a camouflage hat

But when it comes to a Friday night

And knockin' one or two back

I'm a little more bars back home, beer from a bottle

Hidin' in the corner of an old map dot

One-man band playin' Black Water

Knowin' every truck in the parkin' lot

I can have a good time anywhere I go

But give me the neon that frees my soul

'Cause a hurt don't heal and a buzz don't feel

Like it does in the bars back home

How we doin' tonight, y'all?

Yeah, a hurt don't heal and a buzz don't feel

Like it does in the bars back home

It's damn good to be back home in Mississippi tonight, y'all
