Croakin’ in the Dark

(Verse 1)There’s a slow burn glow in the edge of the pinesFirelight dancin’ like it’s keepin’ timeCool night air, not a soul aroundJust me, a lawn chair, and that quiet sound

Crack of a twig and the coals sink lowStars show up like they’re puttin’ on a showKick back easy, let the whole world fadeOut here nothin’ but the choice I made

(Chorus)I’ve got a beer buzz and I’m feelin’ fineGot some me time, no work on my mindFrogs croakin’ soft in the dark somewhereAnd a little bit of smoke driftin’ through the airThat Michelob Ultra sittin’ ice-cold by my kneeCampfire glow and a cold one with me

(Verse 2)Bottle sweatin’ in my hand just rightTake it slow, let it last all nightEvery worry drifts off with the smokeEvery heartbeat slows with each croak

Old dirt road don’t hear a single tireJust that steady whisper of the fireOut here time don’t mean a thingJust the rhythm that the bullfrogs sing

(Chorus)I’ve got a beer buzz and I’m feelin’ fineGot some me time, no work on my mindFrogs croakin’ soft in the dark somewhereAnd a little bit of smoke driftin’ through the airThat Michelob Ultra sittin’ ice-cold by my kneeCampfire glow and a cold one with me

(Bridge)If the world calls, it can wait till mornin’No alarms and no warnin’Just a quiet kind of freedom I can’t explainLike a slow country song in my veins

(Outro)Fire burns down to embers and ashTime slows up, don’t move too fastOne more Ultra, then I close my eyesUnderneath these Carolina skies
