Take Me Back

[Craig Campbell:]
Take me back to them
Cotton fields and barb wired fences
All the things that I'm missing
Dirt riding and nighttime fishing
Hit the river and take a dip
And I don't know why I wanted to leave
Something that means so much to me
I guess it's what it took for me to see
No matter where I roam the only place I call home
Is in the country

[Cypress Spring:]
Way out in the country
Hunting, fishing, that's just how we lived
In homes, valley back to my begining
Learn the skill of skining
[?] vine filled with thorns
We was hiding in a farm
Pond filled with snakes and gators we was diving in
Ain't nothing to a country boy
Only fear the good Lord and a mama, boy
Drive big trucks like a Tonka toy
You know them country girls to love a country boy
We can get litty on outside of the city
Dance in front of the lights on an F250
Windows down cranking Conway Twitty
Takeing me back to them

[Craig Campbell:]
Cotton fields and barb wired fences
All the things that I'm missing
Dirt riding and nighttime fishing
Hit the river and take a dip
And I don't know why I wanted to leave
Something that means so much to me
I guess it's what it took for me to see
No matter where I roam the only place I call home
Is in the country

[Cypress Spring:]
Let me get the picture real quick
So maybe y'all will understand
Where I grew up on that family land
Papa passed it down to my old man
Now that's where he rocks
Back and forth on that front porch
Hoo owl off in the distance
Moonlight bright as a tiki torch
Bonfires and some stinky weed
Moonshine and old oak trees
Fish jumping up out the creek
Honey suckles and bumble bees
This is my place (My place)
This is my home (My home)
No matter I go take me, take me, take me, take me

[Craig Campbell:]
Take me back to them
Cotton fields and barb wired fences
All the things that I'm missing
Dirt riding and nighttime fishing
Hit the river and take a dip
And I don't know why I wanted to leave
Something that means so much to me
I guess it's what it took for me to see
No matter where I roam the only place I call home
Is in the country

[Demun Jones:]
Y'all know 'bout where I was raised
Where we pay respects and say grace
The name chiseled on local tombs and graves
Jones County the place where I was saved
A book of sentences I've written for miles
Like scripture since I was a child
Pops laid block but for hours
A strong foundation to stand up on and climb
Each breath taken I could feel the light
Shining the songs I sing way back in the pines
The memories made always outlast the pain
The hourglass drains, I count the grain
Looking back now I stop and think
How long it'll last, gone in a blink
A kid raised up [?]
Lord take me, take me

[Craig Campbell:]
Take me back to them
Cotton fields and barb wired fences
All the things that I'm missing
Dirt riding and nighttime fishing
Hit the river and take a dip
And I don't know why I wanted to leave
Something that means so much to me
I guess it's what it took for me to see
No matter where I roam the only place I call home
Is in the country
