"Fire That Made Me" lyrics

Charlie Farley & Cody Davis Lyrics

"Fire That Made Me"

Things we've done when we were young
Surprised they didn't kill us all
Tailgates dropped, tops are popped
Moon is shining, old boys fighting over who's gonna take her home

If you could only see the memories that made me
You'd laugh, you'd cry, and hell, you'd probably call me crazy
Good and the bad times and whiskey sipping, baby
See, it's not just a fire, it's the fire that made me

I saw it all right here, thirteen
Me and them good old boys was getting crazy
But the good times ain't all I seen
See, I was sitting here when the call came in
Me and pa was talking when the phone rang
Said my cousin shot himself, well
I grabbed a beer and poured one out for him
'Cause that's what he'd want me to do, yeah

I remember running a hundred up in that Tahoe
Gunning it for the line, tryna make it before the bar closed
Bouncing over them rough roads
And how we didn't roll it, only God knows

If you could only see the memories that made me
You'd laugh, you'd cry, and hell, you'd probably call me crazy
Good and the bad times and whiskey sipping, baby
See, it's not just a fire, it's the fire that made me

In the mirror is a man, that few would understand
Tattoos on my knuckles, scars on my hands
Yeah, I got a little rebel in me but never let a soul
Tell ya that my soul is empty, even though sometimes
I let the devil tempt me, I got a heart of gold
To go with this fifth of whiskey
I refuse to tiptoe through that briar patch
I stand tall and make my own path
Living outback, we just got it like that
Gotta see it to believe it and that's why I say

If these woods could talk, these cabin walls
Things we'd done when we were young, surprised they didn't kill us all
Tailgates dropped, tops are popped
Moon is shining, old boys fighting over who's gonna take her home

If you could only see the memories that made me
You'd laugh, you'd cry, and hell, you'd probably call me crazy
Good and the bad times and whiskey sipping, baby
See, it's not just a fire, it's the fire that made me
