Plainsman (feat. Turnpike Troubadours) - Zach Bryan/Turnpike Troubadours
Lyrics by:Zach Bryan
Produced by:Zach Bryan/Jamie McLaughlin/Eddie Spear
You can take him off the plains but the plains live in him
Like a moccasin sittin' with his riverbend venom
Gets into your blood and remains 'til you die
You can call him off the mountain but the mountain stays calling
Call him on his bluff but he's always all in
Killing coyotes no a country boy can survive
So where would you go when you need
Someone honest?
What would you wish if you only had
A comet?
Would you understand the beauty of
A barron land?
If it wasn't for the hometown home now plainsman
You can take him off the river but the river stays flowing
Take him off the hook but the fly stays floating
Have a trout jumping out asking where his old friends been?
You can take him off the saw but the saw stays cuttin'
You can take him off the hammer but the frame needs buttin'
Work his hands bloody and still come back for more
Now I hear you go cut out running
Bet you now double-or-nothing
You'll never find the beauty that'll beat
This barron land
Or another like your hometown home-now plainsman
Honeysuckle choking out an old fence row
Heartwood yellow of the bois d'arc post
The feeling that you got it right when you had the chance
She ain't gone if I can sit here with her
I feel her on the water with a cold chill shiver
Lorrie lit a cigarette and I just headed home
Where would you go when you need someone honest?
What would you wish if you only had a comet?
Would you understand the beauty of a barron land?
If it wasn't for the hometown home-now plainsman
Where would you go when you need someone honest?
What would you wish if you only had a comet?
Would you understand the beauty of a barron land?
If it wasn't for the hometown home-now plainsman
