Highway Nine

Verse 1

Rolled the window down on Highway Nine

Radio crackled to life

Some old band chugging like a riverboat

Muddy water and a slide guitar

Mama used to hum it while she hung the clothes

Now I'm humming it too

Pre-Chorus

Turn it up turn it up

Let the whole town hear

Turn it up turn it up

Til the speakers disappear

Chorus

Bayou rhythm on the radio

Bayou rhythm gonna save my soul

Bayou rhythm on the radio

Lord I feel it in my bones

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Sing it loud sing it low

Oh-oh oh-oh

Bayou rhythm on the radio

Verse 2

Daddy's truck still smells like pine and rain

Same three chords he ever loved

I ain't got money but I got a good song

Got a tank that's running on fumes

Sun goes down over cypress trees

And the dial stays locked right there

Pre-Chorus

Turn it up turn it up

Let the whole town hear

Turn it up turn it up

Til the speakers disappear

Chorus

Bayou rhythm on the radio

Bayou rhythm gonna save my soul

Bayou rhythm on the radio

Lord I feel it in my bones

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Sing it loud sing it low

Oh-oh oh-oh

Bayou rhythm on the radio

Bridge

Sixty years and the tape still plays

Same muddy river running through my veins

I was born with a jukebox in my chest

And I'll die with the volume up

Chorus

Bayou rhythm on the radio

Bayou rhythm gonna save my soul

Bayou rhythm on the radio

Lord I feel it in my bones

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Sing it loud sing it low

Oh-oh oh-oh

Bayou rhythm on the radio

Outro

Mm-mm

Turn it up

Mm-mm

Turn it up
