[Verse 1]
Sunset bleeds on gravel roads, tractor lines in clay
Got that old guitar hummin', chasin' yesterday
But the radio crackles with a pop b**t in the air
Got one foot in the cotton fields, one in Times Square
Mama’s voice still echoes, "Boy, don’t lose your roots"
But these city lights keep callin' through my worn-out boots
[Chorus]
Yeah, it’s a little bit pop, little bit twang and sway
Steel guitar and synth lights blendin' in the fray
Still got that dirt-road soul in every note I play
Dusty boots on neon streets—ain’t losin' my way
Just a country boy ridin' this pop melody
Keepin' the soft in the sound, like a warm Tennessee breeze
[Verse 2]
Met a girl in rhinestone tears, dancin' close and slow
She loves how the fiddle cries where the bass notes grow
We two-step to a hip-hop thump under disco spheres
Whisperin' truths only a banjo understands in her ears
She says, "Hold that lonesome close, don’t let the modern win"
So I pour my heart in a whiskey jar, let the pop b**t begin
[Chorus]
Yeah, it’s a little bit pop, little bit twang and sway
Steel guitar and synth lights blendin' in the fray
Still got that dirt-road soul in every note I play
Dusty boots on neon streets—ain’t losin' my way
Just a country boy ridin' this pop melody
Keepin' the soft in the sound, like a warm Tennessee breeze
[Bridge]
Oh, the city screams in pixel rain, but I hear the crickets sing
Ain’t no algorithm gonna bury the spring
Where the roots run deep, and the new winds blow
Blend the two worlds gentle, let the harmony grow
[Chorus]
Yeah, it’s a little bit pop, little bit twang and sway
Steel guitar and synth lights blendin' in the fray
Still got that dirt-road soul in every note I play
Dusty boots on neon streets—ain’t losin' my way
Just a country boy ridin' this pop melody
Keepin' the soft in the sound, like a warm Tennessee breeze
