Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hey, girl, I'm just a small-town runaround
I get my kicks out on the outskirts of town
I could never do it like a pretty city boy
I'm more a fishing-in-the-dark nitty-gritty boy
So lay back and let me paint you a picture
The way I wanna kiss you is
[Verse 2]
Slow as the Mississippi
Strong as a fifth of whiskey
Steady as a Tom Petty track
I wanna love, wanna love you like that
Deeper than a sunset sky
Sweeter than muscadine wine
All night till the sun comes back
I wanna love, wanna love, wanna love you like that
[Verse 3]
When I'm with you I can see down the road, girl
Not just the gravel one we're traveling on, girl
And I'm betting that it's gonna be a wild ride
But I promise that I'm gonna be there by your side
I think we've got another memory in the making
So, baby, let's take it, take it
[Verse 4]
Slow as the Mississippi
Strong as a fifth of whiskey
Steady as a Tom Petty track
I wanna love, wanna love you like that
Deeper than a sunset sky
Sweeter than muscadine wine
All night till the sun comes back
I wanna love, wanna love, wanna love you like that
[Verse 5]
And I ain't gonna do it like a pretty city boy
I'm a fishing-in-the-dark nitty-gritty boy
Yeah
So let me love you
[Verse 6]
Slow as the Mississippi
Strong as a fifth of whiskey
Steady as a Tom Petty track, girl
I wanna love, wanna love you like that
Deeper than a sunset sky
Sweeter than muscadine wine
All night till the sun comes back
I wanna love, wanna love, wanna love you like that
[Verse 7]
Baby
I wanna love, wanna love, wanna love you like that
Yeah
I could never do it like a pretty city boy
I'm more a fishing-in-the-dark nitty-gritty boy
