π Lyrics
Every day someone asks me
"What's my story, and what do I like to do?"
And every day, for the most part, I only go so far
Almost never tell the truth
'Cause the truth is behind me, it's not much to give up
I like simple, not complicated
'Cause I'm a small town kid, driven by rock music
And some honky-tonk in the mix
I like whiskey in coke, a double to the top
A shot of Cuervo now and then
I never ask for a lot, I'll never need much
Just a good-looking lady who can drive my truck
Not afraid to admit
I'm that small town kid
And every day
Whoa
Thank God for editing, right?
City lights, yellow cabs, Yankee hats, suits and ties everywhere
These city folks, they look at me in my shirt and jeans
And made me think, I don't fit in here
Well, the things they say might be right
They might be so, but one thing I know
I can't change who I am
'Cause I'm a small town kid, driven by rock music
And some honky-tonk in the mix
Like a whiskey in coke, a double to the top
A shot of Cuervo now and then
Never ask for a lot, I'll never need much
Just a good-looking lady who can drive my truck
Not afraid to admit
I'm that small town kid
Mama, don't you worry
They won't change me
Hundred thousand miles, they mean nothing to me
'Cause I'm a small town kid, driven by rock music
And some honky-tonk in the mix
Like a whiskey in coke, a double to the top
A shot of JΓ€ger now and then
I never ask for a lot, I'll never need much
Just a good-looking lady who can drive my truck
Not afraid to admit
I'm that small town kid
That small town kid
Huntsville, Texas
Jolly Fox, how y'all feelin'
I want y'all to say hello to a couple of friends of ours over here
The man on the organ
A good friend of ours had decided to party with us tonight
Y'all give a big hello to Mr. Alan Huff
And the man right in front of 'em
Playin' the acoustic guitar and singing some vocals with me
Now say hello to one of our other really good friends
Y'all say "hello" to the lover, Mr. Blue Sanders
The man to my left
The man with all the groove
Say hello to Mr. Jon Jones
And the man to my right on the guitar, a man breaking the windows
One of the best, huh
One of the best song writers I know
Now say hello on to the guitar, Mr. James Young
Back in the back on the drums
The man with all the beat
Give a big hello to Mr. Chris Thompson
Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Mike Eli
And together we are the Eli Young Band
'Cause I'm a small town kid, driven by rock music
And some honky-tonk in the mix
Like a whiskey in coke, with double to the top
A shot of Cuervo now and then
Never ask for a lot, I'll never need much
Just a good-looking lady who can drive my truck
Not afraid to admit
I'm that small town kid
That small town kid
Thank y'all very much!
Huntsville, Texas
Let me hear you!
One more time!
For Eli Young, give it up!
"What's my story, and what do I like to do?"
And every day, for the most part, I only go so far
Almost never tell the truth
'Cause the truth is behind me, it's not much to give up
I like simple, not complicated
'Cause I'm a small town kid, driven by rock music
And some honky-tonk in the mix
I like whiskey in coke, a double to the top
A shot of Cuervo now and then
I never ask for a lot, I'll never need much
Just a good-looking lady who can drive my truck
