Lyrics Tanlines - Gunnar & the Grizzly Boys

Tanlines

My left arm’s burnt from runnin' this truck
Up north on 2 tracks gettin' stuck in the mud
Window rolled down and my fist outside
My right still white cause I use it to drive
City folk laugh and people ask why
I tell ‘em this here’s a custom country boy tanline
Because I don’t need no light bulb bed
To bronze my body from my toes to my head
I got the sun to keep my neck red
If that turns you off you can’t slice my bread
It’s a beautiful day in the broad daylight
Workin' on these country boy tanlines
And I look like a coon with my polorize
From a long day fishin' runnin' flathead line
They help me do work I don’t compromise
Won’t even take 'em off when the sun don’t shine
White stripes from my ears leading up to my eyes
Yeah this here’s a custom country boy tanline
Because I don’t need no light bulb bed
To bronze my body from my toes to my head
I got the sun to keep my neck red
If that turns you off you can’t slice my bread
It’s a beautiful day in the broad daylight
Workin' on these country boy tanlines
And I go to the pool to jump off the high dive
I shed my t-shirt and the place goes blind
Legs and chest never see daylight
Blue jeans and boots is how I tractor ride
A farmer’s tan call it what you like
But this here’s a custom country boy tanline
Because I don’t need no light bulb bed
To bronze my body from my toes to my head
I got the sun to keep my neck red
If that turns you off you can’t slice my bread
It’s a beautiful day in the broad daylight
Workin' on these country boy tanlines
Aww work it
Lordy here she come in them cut off jeans
Bikini top the woman of my dreams
She takes it all off out behind the barn
I help her rub the oil with my 2 strong arms
She says it’s your turn throws my clothes aside
Now I’m a country boy workin' on my tanlines
Yeah
Because I don’t need no light bulb bed
To bronze my body from my toes to my head
I got the sun to keep my neck red
If that turns you off you can’t slice my bread
It’s a beautiful day in the broad daylight
Workin' on these country boy tanlines
Aww work it
