Lyrics

Drop

Dirt under nails

Dirt under nails

Verse 1

Cold

Empty cans

Rattling in the rusty bed

I saw the morning

I saw the hunger

I saw the way out of this town

Sweat on the collar

Hard work

Heavy hands

Hammering down the golden spikes

Chorus

Home is just a map I burned

Home is just a map I burned

Running till the engine breaks

Running till the engine breaks

Take me where the grass is tall

Take me where the grass is tall

Drop

Dirt under nails

Dirt under nails

Wilder than the wind

Wilder than the wind

Verse 2

Dust

Turning gray

Settling on my leather boots

Never looking back

Never feeling stuck

Stronger spirits in the jug

Bitter blood

Bitter bone

Broken glass on the gravel path

Far away

Far

Chorus

Home is just a map I burned

Home is just a map I burned

Running till the engine breaks

Running till the engine breaks

Take me where the grass is tall

Take me where the grass is tall

Drop

Dirt under nails

Dirt under nails

Wilder than the wind

Wilder than the wind

Bridge

Copper sky

Copper ground

Copper coins in a hollow jar

The road stays open

The road stays long

The road stays mine

Chorus

Home is just a map I burned

Home is just a map I burned

Running till the engine breaks

Running till the engine breaks

Take me where the grass is tall

Take me where the grass is tall

Drop

Dirt under nails

Dirt under nails

Wilder than the wind

Wilder than the wind
