"One Of Us" lyrics

"One Of Us"

One of us got his number hung up
Bet he probably coulda made the big leagues
One of us dropped out tenth grade
Now he's bout to be a daddy next week
One of us wound up on a grey hound
Said I'm out of this one horse
He was gone about a year now he's sitting right here
With a beer right now

We all talk a little small town
Buncha raised right round here
Kids keeping it country
We all know a little dirt road
Eighty-hour workload week
Never hurt nobody
One of us got a chain if you get stuck
One of us got a cooler full of cold bud
In the back of his truck
And if that sounds like you
Then you might be one of us

One of us got hitched to the girl he first kissed
Way back in fifth grade
One of us ain't got no settle down in him
Probably never gonna change
One of us been gone since he got called home
Drove right off the road in his Chevy
And any one of us coulda been shotgun
So we still drink one in his memory

We all talk a little small town
Buncha raised right round here
Kids keeping it country
We all know a little dirt road
Eighty-hour workload week
Never hurt nobody
One of us got a chain if you get stuck
One of us got a cooler full of cold bud
In the bed of his truck
If that sounds like you
Then you sound like one of us

We all talk a little small town
Buncha raised right round here
Kids keeping it country
We all know a little dirt road
Eighty-hour workload week
Never hurt nobody
One of us got a chain if you get stuck
One of us got a cooler full of cold bud
In the bed of his truck
If that sounds like you
Then you sound like one of us
