"It's A Start" lyrics

"It's A Start"

Well it's springtime down around Slaughter Creek Dirt Road
I bet the crawfish bite any bait thrown in the hole
Got my six string strung, this song on my heart
It ain't about a thing but by God it's a start

And it feels so good being here with you
Just burnin' firewood
Tellin' jokes we learned from old folks
Sippin' cokes with barbecue

There's a junkyard there somewhere in that kudzu
I know it's hard to see but underneath's 442
Cutlass Oldsmobile
I used to dream to run
I am dreamin' still, these days just for fun

And it feels so good being here with you
Just burnin' firewood
Reminiscing missin' old times
Wishin' we still called them new

And it feels so good being here with you
Just burnin firewood
Tellin' jokes we learned from old folks
Sippin' cokes with barbecue

Well it's fall time down around Slaughter Creek Dirt Road
The place that takes the credit for half the lies I've told
Got my six string strung, this song on my heart
It ain't about a thing but by God it's a start
