Brothers on the Line

Verse 1

Dust

On the dash

Kicked up from the gravel drive

Empty porch swing moving slow

You took the ring and left the debt

Cold

Stone cold

Left a hole where the pictures hung

But the fridge is full of silver cans

And the boys are pulling up the lane

Tearing through the yard

Kicking up the clay

Coming over just to stay

We don't need a reason

Chorus

I still got my brothers

I still got my brothers

I still got my brothers on the line

When the porch light fades

And the house feels wide

They're the ones standing by my side

I still got my brothers

I still got my brothers

Post-Chorus

Yeah we ride

Yeah we ride

Roll on

Roll on

Verse 2

Tires

Big tires

Mud on the fender

Camo hat tilted to the side

J.J. brought the grill and the charcoal

Billy brought the dog and the bad jokes

Laughing

Loud laughing

Heard from three miles down the creek

The ghost of you is finally packing

Packing up and moving out

Left the key

Left the mess

Left me feeling like a guest

But they make it home again

Chorus

I still got my brothers

I still got my brothers

I still got my brothers on the line

When the porch light fades

And the house feels wide

They're the ones standing by my side

I still got my brothers

I still got my brothers

Bridge

Blood is thick

But mud is thicker

Sweat and tears and brown liquor

Shed the weight

Shed the worry

Shed the memory in a hurry

I don't need the flowers on the sill

I just need the iron and the will

To keep on moving

To keep on living

To keep on breathing

Chorus

I still got my brothers

I still got my brothers

I still got my brothers on the line

When the porch light fades

And the house feels wide

They're the ones standing by my side

I still got my brothers

I still got my brothers

Outro

Got the crew

Got the camp

Got the fire in the damp

Ain't alone

Never alone

Built a kingdom on this throne

Yeah we ride

Yeah we ride

Roll on

Roll on
