Sometimes a crowd makes me lonely Sometimes a shot just makes me sad
Sometimes I miss that old small town Slow down life I kinda wish that I still had
I can't really pour my heart out on the FM radio
Cause the way I'm really feeling won't fill up the Coliseum
I'm on the edge of Tupelo
Yeah, I need a little backbone in my back beat
I need a little lifelong in my front seat
I need the kind of moments that make my whole wide world stand still
I wanna hear about a deep cut, a heartbreak
You tell me about your hard times, your mistakes
Give you something that'll burn
I can turn into something I can feel
Yeah, I want something real, something real
I like a long drive down a back road
Pretty girl sitting at a bar
But those roads don't go forever
Pick up lines don't always get her
And that neon just goes dark
I wanna climb up on a mountain
I want love that feels like home
Yeah, I want a conversation like a sunset and a song
I can feel down in my bones
Yeah, I need a little backbone in my back beat
I need a little lifelong in my front seat
I need the kind of moments that make my whole wide world stand still
I wanna hear about a deep cut, a heartbreak
You tell me about your hard times, your mistakes
Give you something that'll burn
I can turn into something I can feel
Yeah, I want something real strong
Yeah, something I can hold on to
When the red dirt settles down
And there's nothing left around
I'm just looking for some truth
I'm just looking for some truth
I need a little backbone in my back beat
I need a little lifelong in my front seat
I need the kind of moments that make my whole wide world stand still
Yeah, I wanna hear about a deep cut, a heartbreak
You tell me about your hard times, your mistakes
Give you something that'll burn
I can turn into something I can feel
Yeah, I want something real
Yeah, I want something real
Yeah, I want something real
Yeah, I need something real
Something real
Yeah, something real
