Buckhorn Love (Iowa Bound)

Intro

Oh oh

Yeah yeah

Cassie loves you Jeff

Mm hmm

Verse 1

Gate opened up for a ten year run

Meant for Iowa but the paperwork was done

Missouri clay under your heavy boots instead

Kansas City air messing with your head

Buckhorn plant molding plastic in the heat

Working overtime just so we could meet

Timed perfectly

Caught a look at the line

Shift change secrets

Yours and mine

Pre-Chorus

Distance came like a winter rain

Left me here dealing with the pain

Empty room

Wait for the call

Watching every shadow on the wall

Chorus

But I followed you home

Didn't matter what they said

Found my peace inside your world

Ignoring every voice in my head

Yeah I followed you home

Taking the boy with your name

Safe inside your steady arms

Nothing ever felt the same

Yeah I followed you home

Verse 2

Ten summers gone in a heart's fast beat

Engine roaring on the Harley in the street

I'm the passenger

Clinging to your side

Monkey on your back through the hills we ride

Two jet skis cutting glass on the lake

Best damn choice I could ever make

Life built

Found our place

Joy written all across your face

Pre-Chorus

Distance came like a winter rain

Left me here dealing with the pain

Empty room

Wait for the call

Watching every shadow on the wall

Chorus

But I followed you home

Didn't matter what they said

Found my peace inside your world

Ignoring every voice in my head

Yeah I followed you home

Taking the boy with your name

Safe inside your steady arms

Nothing ever felt the same

Yeah I followed you home

Bridge

He looks at you and sees a real dad

Best protector he could have ever had

Told me don't go

Told me stay away

Glad I packed the car on that Tuesday

Never looking back

Never letting go

Chorus

But I followed you home

Didn't matter what they said

Found my peace inside your world

Ignoring every voice in my head

Yeah I followed you home

Taking the boy with your name

Safe inside your steady arms

Nothing ever felt the same

Yeah I followed you home

Outro

Your monkey loves you Jeff

Always

Iowa forever

Yeah

Oh oh oh
