Luke's pov

I got the record deal I drove home and ran inside

"guess who just signed with capital records" I said

"no, way to go man" Jason said high fiving me, I started looking for Sierra

"where's my baby" I asked him

"oh she's in the nursery" he said I nodded and went upstairs and Sierra was asleep with her paci in her mouth and she was lightly snoring I smiled and grabbed the baby monitor and went downstairs

"when do you start recording" Jason asked

"next weekend, you think you could keep Sierra for me" I asked

"of course I don't mind" he said

"thanks hey I wrote a new song and I want you to play it with me" I said he nodded and got his guitar and we started playing

"my daddy spent his life looking up at the sky he cussed, kicked the dust sayin son it's way to dry the clouds up in the city the weather man complains but where I come from rain is a good thing.

Cause rain makes corn, corn makes wiskey, wiskey makes my baby feel a little frisky back roads are bogging up my buddies pile up in my truck, we hunt are hunnies down we take em into town, start washing all our worries down the drain rain is a good thing." I sang

"wow that's awesome dude I can't wait to see you at your first concert hey I just wrote a new song and I'm gonna play it at my concert this weekend you wanna sing it with me it's a duet" he asked

"yea let's go ahead and practice what's it called" I asked

"the only way I know" he said getting his guitar

"well I grew up in one of those old farm towns where they hit it hard til the sun goes down, nobody seem to care that we where living in the middle of nowhere, we just figured that's how it was and everybody else was just like us soaking in the rain, baking in the sun don't quit til the job gets done

That's the only way I know don't stop til everythings gone straight ahead and never turn around, don't back up don't back down, full throttle, wide open, you get tired and you don't show it dig a little deeper when you think you can't dig no more that's the only way I know" he sang playing the guitar

"That old red dirt the first thing you learn is you don't get nothing that you don't earn humble pride I grew up one you just find out how bad you want it" I sang

"sun in our eyes, backs to the fences we didn't know the odds were against us hit the wall smoking and spinning still wasn't thinking bout nothin but winnin

That's the only way I know don't stop til everythings gone straight ahead and never turn around" he sang

"don't back up don't back down" I sang

"full throttle wide open you get tired and you don't show it dig a little deeper when you think you can't dig no more that's the only way I know" we sang

"maybe there's another path that'll get ya there a little bit faster but I'm sticking with the one inside of me" I sang

"that's the only way I know" Jason sang

"don't stop til everythings gone" I sang

"straight ahead and never turn around don't back up don't back down full throttle wide open you get tired and you don't show it dig a little deeper when you think you can't dig no more that's the only way I, that's the only way I know don't stop til everythings gone straight ahead and never turn around don't back up don't back down full throttle wide open you get tired and you don't show it dig a little deeper when you think you can't dig no more that's the only way I know" we sang together

"that's the only way I know" I sang
