"Flag On The Wall" lyrics
"Flag On The Wall"
Rolling through the coal country, East on 91
I'll make West Virginia, by the dawn of the morning sun
These people are my family, under the mattress is their bank
If you hear shooting in the backyard, brother we ain't firing blanks
Now people these days make fun of us, say we're causing all this mess
While they build more concrete jungles and the world is in distress
Well, your purple mountain majesty to you is just a dream
But round here it's back porch real as methamphetamine
Well, they say this land is your land, but ain't that a crock of shit
'Cause with the price of cigarettes going up, I'm gonna have to quit
We all blue and we all red, and we support the boys that fall
With a bible on the table and a flag on the wall
Out here in these hollers, they really hunt to eat
They sell the hides to keep the shoes on the baby's feet
And the wood that they're choppin', yeah, it provides the heat
And life ain't half as bad as it looks from an old C10 seat
Now a couple more long hard years, and this double wide'll be paid off
'Til then I'mma keep on running these jars and pray I don't get caught
I keep on praying to Jesus and keep my fingers crossed
With a bible on the table and a flag on the wall
Well, they say this land is your land, but ain't that a crock of shit
'Cause with the price of gasoline going up, I'm gonna have to sit
We all blue and we all red, and we support the boys that fall
With a bible on the table and a flag on the wall
God be with this country, God be with us all
Bless the bible on the table and the flag on the wall

Randy Houser - "No Stone Unturned" I made it up to Nashville, played the park
I took a broken guitar through the heart
And I chased a girl to New Orleans

Michael Ray - "Higher Education" They all said I wouldn't amount to nothing
But I know a thing or two about a thing or two, yeah
Ain't gonna tell it all but I'll tell you something

Jon Pardi - "Tequila Little Time" Pardon me, I don't mean to pry
I saw the tears fallin' from your eyes, and I thought

I want tequila little...
Old Dominion - "Make It Sweet" I know it's a drag, I know it's a grind
I know that a dollar ain't worth a dime
Just trying to keep up with the Joneses at the end of the block
I know you get tired, I know you get down
I know you...
