Everybody knows just where to go when there's beer to get
And everybody still drives up that same old hill, for their first kiss
And old man Wilson he still don't know his backfield is the party spot
When the sun goes down, these are my stompin' grounds
Woah, these are my stompin' grounds
All my buddies they've been all marryin' their high school sweethearts
And you ain't got enough fingers to count the tractors in our front yards
4 wheel drives are given for gettin' back and forth in my hometown
These are my stomping grounds
Hey I live here, I'll die here and every time I look around
I see the dirt roads and the wind rows, I know what life is all about,
These are my stompin' grounds, yeah
Oh, these are my stompin' grounds
Me and my buddies we got ourselves a honey hole back in the pines
And ain't it funny how the bucks we missed get bigger, and bigger every time
I could be a million miles away or 20 minutes from my house, we're forever bound
These are my stompin' grounds
Hey I live here, I'll die here and every time I look around
I see the dirt roads and the wind rows, I know what life is all about,
These are my stompin' grounds, yeah
These are my stompin' grounds, yeah
I live here, I'll die here and every time I look around
I see the dirt roads and the wind rows, I know what life is all about,
These are my stompin' grounds, yeah
Oh, these are my stompin' grounds, yeah
I work a lot maybe some of you are aware But today I'm going to try not to talk about the bar. Today I'm going to talk about home...some people don't understand my undying pull to this town. I get it, I do, I was picked on in high school here. I feel in love and was treated badly here. So many tears were shed in this very room that I am sitting in writing this. But this is also the town where I found out that I didn't have cancer when I had the scare at the age of 22. This is where I was when sister #1 had both of her amazing children. This is where we were when sister #2 went from a family of 4 to a family of 7. This the house I lived in when I figured out that even through it didn't feel like it at the time the world was not going to stop turning because of a man. I lose friends and family in this town. I made new friends and lived long enough to see them be buried as well.
I found my voice and learned about myself down south... But I truly found myself in this room, in this house, in this town I found a job that I love and some of the best friends of my life here. I am truly blessed to have the family that I have. and yes I would have the same family here, there or anywhere but I might not be the same person without this town... Good or bad I want nothing more then to live in this little town for the rest of my life...
I always have had the wrong last name and wasn't good at sports but I found my niche in Drama, band and cheering. Don't get me wrong i wouldn't go back to high school for less then a million is cash but it really wasn't that bad. Some people would go back... Not me ... OK I would for the money and if I could take everything I have learned in the last ten years back with me. then sure I'm in.
Really its just silliness
That's really all for today :)
Have Faith
