Mason Jars & Fireflies

(album: High Country Sound - 2021)

Mason jars and fireflies
White diamond stars up in that sky

We was just some barefoot mountain kids
Cannon-balling off the bridge
Running like a runaway train
I remember holler honeysuckle smell
Drinking from the neighbor's well
Burning through some hot as hell days

Turn it back in the backwoods
Come right around sundown
Yeah, the getting got real good
'Cause that's when they come out

Them mason jars and fireflies
White diamond stars up in that sky
That whippoorwill howl in the night
Yeah, there's a call, sweet summertime

Yeah, we're getting older but the fire's still burning
And we're still sitting round it and the girl's still turning me on
Virginia clear to drink on, and southern sparks, neon
Blinking lights in the dark like lightning

Them mason jars and fireflies
White diamond stars up in that sky
That whippoorwill howl in the night
Yeah, there's a call, sweet summertime

So come on boys, get your guitars out
Bet them girls gon' get on down
Take a sip of that mountain shine
Nothing like sweet summertime
Making noise on the mountaintop
We gon' make that mountain rock
Way out here it's a way of life
Nothing like sweet summertime

Mason jars and fireflies
White diamond stars up in that sky
Whippoorwill howl in the night
Yeah, there's a call, sweet summertime
Mason jars and fireflies
(So come on boys, get your guitars out
Bet them girls gon' get on down)
White diamond stars up in that sky
(Take a sip of that mountain shine
Nothing like sweet summertime)
Where whippoorwill howl in the night
(Making noise on the mountaintop
We gon' make that mountain rock)
Yeah, there's a call, sweet summertime
(Way out here it's a way of life
Nothing like sweet summertime)
