Sometimes, a crowd makes me lonely

Sometimes, a shot just makes me sad

Sometimes, I miss that old small town, slow down

Life I kinda wish that I still had.

I can't really pour my heart out

On the fm radio

'cause the way I'm really feeling

Won't fill up the coliseum, on the edge of tupelo.

Yeah, I need a little backbone in my backbeat

I need a little lifelong in my front seat

I need the kinda moments that make my whole wide world stand still

I wanna hear about a deep cut, a heartbreak

Yeah, tell me 'bout your hard times, your mistakes

Give me something that'll burn, I can turn into something I can feel

Yeah, I want somethin' real, somethin' real.

I like a long drive down a backroad

Pretty girl sitting at a bar

But those roads don't go forever, pickup lines don't always get her

And that neon just goes dark.

I wanna climb up on a mountain

I want a love that feels like home

Yeah, I want a conversation

Like a sunset and a song, I can feel down in my bones.

Yeah, I need a little backbone in my backbeat

I need a little lifelong in my front seat

I need the kinda moments that make my whole wide world stand still

I wanna hear about a deep cut, a heartbreak

Yeah, tell me 'bout your hard times, your mistakes

Give me somethin' that'll burn, I can turn into somethin' I can feel.

Yeah, I want something real strong

Yeah, something I can hold onto

When the red dirt settles down

And there's nothing left around

I'm just lookin' for some truth

I'm just lookin' for some truth.

I need a little backbone in my backbeat

I need a little lifelong in my front seat

I need the kinda moments that make my whole wide world stand still

Yeah, I wanna hear about a deep cut, a heartbreak

Yeah, tell me 'bout your hard times, your mistakes

Give me somethin' that'll burn I can turn into somethin' I can feel.

Yeah, I want somethin' real, yeah I want somethin' real

Yeah, I want somethin' real, yeah I need somethin' real

Something real

Ohh, yeah, I want something real.
