Laying back against this windshield
Parked out in this Georgia red field
This is where we burn our summer nights
Moonlit lipstick kisses on the hood of that Tacoma
We were 17 going on free and wild
She was smoking hot,
a whiskey shot,
a cherry coke
Sparks were flying every time
I smelled smoke
I'm sittin' by a bonfire
watching her swaying
me and my buddies and the guitar playin'
Sippin' on fourties on a Saturday night
Buzzin' through a chorus of 'Dixieland Delight'
High as the stars in the Milky Way
those summer days drifted away
but she'll always float
back through my mind like smoke
July flames,
October ashes,
Southern skin
and blue jean flashes
strike a match and light a memory
we never said goodbye
we let it fly into thin air
tonight I'm stoned on long-gone love so strong I swear
I'm sittin' by a bonfire watching her swaying
me and my buddies and the guitar playin'
sippin' on fourties on a Saturday night
buzzin' through a chorus of 'Dixieland delight'
high as the stars in the Milky Way
those summer days drifted away
but she'll always float
back through my mind like smoke
she was smoking hot,
a whiskey shot,
a cherry coke
sparks were flying every time I smelled smoke
I'm sittin' by a bonfire watching her swaying
me and my buddies and the guitar playin'
sippin' on fourties on a Saturday night
buzzin' through a chorus of 'Dixieland delight'
high as the stars in the Milky Way
those summer days drifted away
but she'll always float
back through my mind like smoke
