Bullet Belt (feat. Butch Walker) |
Hey Daddy tell me 'bout the time you had to go to jail for smokin' pot |
An Iron Maiden concert in a Carolina parking lot |
Whoa |
And when you had to listen to recordings on a record player |
And your band all had to plug into a little amplifier |
Just to hear over the drums, |
Hear over the drums, |
I can only hear the drums, |
I can only hear the drums. |
Well 1969 to 1977 |
It was 8 years of heaven 'hind the 7−11 |
Stayin' out all night |
While we kept our engines revvin' |
And we’d never make it home before dawn… |
Maybe… |
I’m not that crazy |
I’m just playing with the hand I was dealt |
Maybe… |
I’m not that crazy |
I’m just a chip off the ol' bullet belt. |
Hey momma tell me bout the time you would sneak out of your window |
And meet up with your other friends and smoke your cigarettes |
And blow the smoke into another girl’s mouth |
Whoa |
And when you drove across the country |
With your stoner friends all in a van |
To fill up all your mason jars with the California sand |
California sand, California sand |
California, California, California sand |
Well 1969 to 1977 |
It was 8 years of heaven 'hind the 7−11 |
Stayin' out all night |
While we kept our engines revvin' |
And we’d never make it home before dawn… |
Hair dyed black, |
A walking marshall stack |
We’d play all night shows behind the chicken shack |
Sittin' back to back, |
We were a heart attack' |
Givin' the finger to the cops on the lawn |
Maybe… |
I’m not that crazy |
I’m just playin' with the hand I was dealt |
Maybe… |
I’m not that crazy |
I’m just a chip off the ol' bullet belt |
Well 1969 to 1977 |
It was 8 years of heaven 'hind the 7−11 |
Stayin' out all night |
While we kept our engines revvin' |
And we’d never make it home before dawn… |
Hair dyed black, |
A walking marshall stack |
We’d play all night shows behind the chicken shack |
Sittin' back to back, |
We were a heart attack' |
Givin' the finger to the cops on the lawn |
Maybe… |
I’m not that crazy |
I’m just playin' with the hand I was dealt |
Maybe… |
I’m not that crazy |
I’m just a chip off the ol' bullet belt |
