Lyrics
Intro
Oh oh
Mm-hmm
Verse 1
Red dirt stuck on these heels
Driving past the rusting wheels of a combine
Met a girl named Katrina once
Down in New Orleans
Where the air is thick and sweet as cane
Oklahoma wind starts calling my name again
Pre-Chorus
South Carolina to Alabama pines
Walking through the brambles and the thicket vines
Texas arms hold me tighter than the rest
Dakota gold is where I find my quest
Chorus
You can't take the home out of Oklahoma
No matter where these tired feet roam
Travelling down those long country roads
Singing to the spirits of the folks I know
Born in the quiet
Raised in the wild
Always going to be a countryside child
No city lights
No neon sights
Just the stars shining through the blackest nights
Post-Chorus
Home bound
True ground
Yeah we are home bound
Hey hey
Verse 2
Route Sixty-Six is a ribbon of gray
Cutting through the heat at the break of day
Maybe there's a thread leading back to the English shore
The kind of connection that I can't ignore
Heading south with a heavy engine hum
Waiting for the beat of the travel drum
Pre-Chorus
South Carolina to Alabama pines
Walking through the brambles and the thicket vines
Texas arms hold me tighter than the rest
Dakota gold is where I find my quest
Chorus
You can't take the home out of Oklahoma
No matter where these tired feet roam
Travelling down those long country roads
Singing to the spirits of the folks I know
Born in the quiet
Raised in the wild
Always going to be a countryside child
No city lights
No neon sights
Just the stars shining through the blackest nights
Post-Chorus
Home bound
True ground
Yeah we are home bound
Hey hey
Bridge
Direction is a funny thing to track
When every single map says don't look back
But the soil knows my skin
The harvest is coming in
Keep the wheels spinning
Until the song is beginning
Chorus
You can't take the home out of Oklahoma
No matter where these tired feet roam
Travelling down those long country roads
Singing to the spirits of the folks I know
Born in the quiet
Raised in the wild
Always going to be a countryside child
No city lights
No neon sights
Just the stars shining through the blackest nights
Post-Chorus
Home bound
True ground
Yeah we are home bound
Hey hey
