Mud on My Boots

ORYN (Intro) Yeah… ORYN, baby PNW to the backroads Turn this one up loud (Verse 1) I came from them dark nights, cold rain on the cedar Mama said, “Boy, one day life gon’ get sweeter” Used to ride broke down roads in a hand-me-down Chevy Now the same small town sayin’ that my name heavy Blue collar scars, got dirt on the Carhartt Still carry pain that I buried in my heart Bonfire smoke mixin’ with the gasoline Small town king with a Nashville dream I done seen fake love, courtroom stress People switch sides when your life get pressed But I stayed ten toes in the mud like tires Now the whole crowd singin’ every word through the wires (Pre-Chorus) And they know… I still ride with the same day ones Still pray when the hard days come Still got mud on my boots tonight (Chorus) Mud on my boots, whiskey in the air Country girl dancing with her hands in my hair Truck bed lights under small town stars We made broken hearts look beautiful in the dark Whoa-oh We ain’t rich but we live like kings Gold in our souls, not diamond rings From the backroad smoke to the big stage lights Still got mud on my boots tonight (Verse 2) She got them blue jeans painted on like a song Singing old Johnny Cash while she rollin’ one strong Tattoo on her thigh say “ride or die forever” And she love when I rap with that country boy swagger We were young, dumb, reckless with the speakers loud Middle fingers up hanging out the truck through town Sheriff lights flash but we gone by then Just a couple wild hearts let the night begin Now everybody wanna post when I’m up now But they ain’t hear the pain in the breakdowns They ain’t see the nights I was losin’ my mind Tryna stay alive while I wrote every line (Pre-Chorus) But I know… God got a road for me somewhere Even if it’s smoke in the rearview mirror I still got mud on my boots tonight (Chorus) Mud on my boots, whiskey in the air Country girl dancing with her hands in my hair Truck bed lights under small town stars We made broken hearts look beautiful in the dark Whoa-oh We ain’t rich but we live like kings Gold in our souls, not diamond rings From the backroad smoke to the big stage lights Still got mud on my boots tonight (Bridge) Raise them cups high if you came from pain If you lost somebody and you still feel rain If you came from nothin’ but you still got pride Then this right here’s your anthem tonight (Final Chorus — Bigger) Mud on my boots, fire in my soul Every scar I got made me into gold From the trailer parks to the sold out shows Everybody singin’ while the moonlight glows Whoa-oh Yeah we made it through them hard old nights Now the whole damn town got their lighters high From the backroad smoke to the big stage lights Still got mud on my boots tonight (Outro) Yeah… ORYN Backroad soul with a rap game heart Mud on my boots forever
