Something Real

Sometimes, a crowd makes me lonely
Sometimes, a shot just makes me sad
Sometimes, I miss that old small town, slow down
Life I kinda wish that I still had

I can't really pour my heart out
On the FM radio
'Cause the way I'm really feeling
Won't fill up the coliseum, I'm on the edge of Tupelo

Yeah, I need a little backbone in my backbeat
I need a little lifelong in my front seat
I need the kinda moments that make my whole wide world stand still
I wanna hear about a deep cut, a heartbreak
Yeah, tell me 'bout your hard times, your mistakes
Give me something that'll burn, I can turn into something I can feel
Yeah, I want somethin' real, somethin' real

I like a long drive down a backroad
And pretty girls sitting at a bar
But those roads don't go forever, pickup lines don't always get her
And that neon just goes dark

I wanna climb up on a mountain
I want a love that feels like home
Yeah, I want a conversation
Like a sunset and a song, I can feel down in my bones

Yeah, I need a little backbone in my backbeat
I need a little lifelong in my front seat
I need the kinda moments that make my whole wide world stand still
I wanna hear about a deep cut, a heartbreak
Yeah, tell me 'bout your hard times, your mistakes
Give me somethin' that'll burn, I can turn into somethin' I can feel

Yeah, I want something real strong
Yeah, something I can hold onto
When the red dirt settles down
And there's nothing left around
I'm just lookin' for some truth
I'm just lookin' for some truth

I need a little backbone in my backbeat
I need a little lifelong in my front seat
I need the kinda moments that make my whole wide world stand still
Yeah, I wanna hear about a deep cut, a heartbreak
Yeah, tell me 'bout your hard times, your mistakes
Give me somethin' that'll burn I can turn into somethin' I can feel

Yeah, I want somethin' real
Yeah, I want somethin' real
Yeah, I want somethin' real
Yeah I need somethin' real
Something real
Whoa-whoa, yeah, I want something real
