Everything's green right now Tennessee at the end of June You get a day to come down We'll ride to Robert's in the afternoon Before the room gets packed We'll claim a table at the upstairs bar And count the cowboy hats Bachelorettes that don't know where they are
And I don't say things that I don't mean You're the best thing I've ever seen You can have my money if you spend your own Well, I'm still running, but I'm not alone
We all get lost out here The deepest ditches line the righteous path God said, "Hold my beer" And he made a man so He could watch and laugh But everything's good these days We'll ride to Robert's on a Friday night And hear Don Kelley play And I'll catch you dreaming in the neon light
'Cause I don't say things that I don't mean You're the best thing I've ever seen You can have my closet and my herringbone Well, I ain't lost yet, I'm headed home
Everything's green right now Tennessee is looking after you You get a year to come down I'll put an easel in the empty room You can dream all day Ride to Robert's when we crave a steel Find some peace that way And give your heart a little time to heal
I don't say things that I don't mean You're the best thing I've ever seen You can have my closet for your fancy shoes Well, I ain't lost yet, so much to lose
