[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Well, the sun cracks the horizon on a busted Chevrolet,
Grease on my fingers, dust in the air I breathe all day.
Ain’t no shiny city lights, just a field of weathered steel,
But every dent and rusted edge tells a story that’s real.
[Chorus]
I’m living my rust life, where the wild and the worn collide,
Ain’t chasing perfection, just the peace in a simple ride.
From the cracks in the tractor seat to the smoke on the fire line,
This old heart’s still pounding strong in this rusted paradise.
[Verse 2]
The barn’s leaning sideways, but it’s holding all my dreams,
A pocketknife, a work-worn Bible, and a tank full of gasoline.
I mend what’s broken, pray for rain when the dirt turns gray,
‘Cause a rusted life’s a honest life, and I wouldn’t trade a day.
[Chorus]
I’m living my rust life, where the wild and the worn collide,
Ain’t chasing perfection, just the peace in a simple ride.
From the cracks in the tractor seat to the smoke on the fire line,
This old heart’s still pounding strong in this rusted paradise.
[Bridge]
They say time’s a thief, but it polishes what remains,
Every scar on this ol’ land sings a ballad through the plains.
So let the paint peel, let the hinges whine and cry,
Underneath this tin-roof sky, I’m still learning how to fly.
[Chorus]
I’m living my rust life, where the wild and the worn collide,
Ain’t chasing perfection, just the peace in a simple ride.
From the cracks in the tractor seat to the smoke on the fire line,
This old heart’s still pounding strong in this rusted paradise.
[Outro]
