a country song lyrics

When I need to put my feet back on the ground

I go back to my hometown

When I need a night to act my age

Me and my friends stay out too late

And when I need to feel good in my skin

I drop everything and run to him

When nothin' makes sense but I need to talk

That's when I call my mom

But I wanna write a country song

When nothin's gentle on my mind

And I'm needin' somethin' strong

And I'm almost out of wine

When I get so lonesome

My truth gets told some whether it's right or wrong

I stay up all night

Done it my whole life

Sometimes you gotta write

A country song

Got me through the drama with my ex

The first time that I had sex

The day the word divorce got really real

My first year in Nashville

Maybe it's cause of my raisin'

What my parents were playin'

But when I feel my heart breakin'

No hesitation

I go and write a country song

When nothin's gentle on my mind

And I'm needin' somethin' strong

And I'm almost out of wine

When I get so lonesome

My truth gets told some whether it's right or wrong

I stay up all night

Done it my whole life

Sometimes you gotta write

A country song

About love, about lies, about my baby's truck

Real life, that's the stuff

Yeah first kiss, last call, bad breakin' ups

My life, that's what

Makes me write a country song

When nothin's gentle on my mind

And I'm needin' somethin' strong

And now I'm out of wine

When I get so lonesome

My truth gets told some whether it's right or wrong

It gets me every time

Story of my life

There ain't nothin' like

A country song

About love, about lies, about my baby's truck

Real life, that's the stuff

A country song

First kiss, last call, bad breakin' ups

My life that's what
