  • May we all get to grow up in a red, white, and blue little town
    Get a won't start, hand me down Ford to try to fix up
    With some part time cash from drivin' a tractor
    Find a sweet little thang, wears your ball cap backwards
    Kinda place you can't wait to leave but nobody does
    'Cause you'd miss it too much

    May we all know that nothin' ain't cool 'til you wear the new off
    The sound of a quarter rollin' down the jukebox
    Play the Travis Tritt right above the 2Pac
    'Fore you get lost down some road
    Slow rollin' with the top off the back of a Bronco
    Buy a cold sixer with a cashed in lotto
    She's smilin' with her hair blowing out the window
    Where you 'bout to go?
    Yeah, you learn to fly, and if you can't, then you just freefall
    May we all

    May we all get to see those fields of green turn gold
    Watch a marching band play with the harvest moon comin' up
    And know that fifteen minutes of famous
    Ain't gonna be what makes us or breaks us but
    We'll all be watchin' the TV the day that it comes

    May we all know that nothin' ain't cool 'til you wear the new off
    The sound of a quarter rollin' down the jukebox
    Play the Travis Tritt right above the 2Pac
    'Fore you get lost down some road
    Slow rollin' with the top off the back of a Bronco
    Buy a cold sixer with a cashed in lotto
    She's smilin' with her hair blowing out the window
    Where you 'bout to go?
    Yeah, you learn to fly, if you can't, then you just freefall
    May we all

    May we all do a little bit better than the first time
    Learn a little somethin' from the worst times
    Get a little stronger from the hurt times
    May we all get to have a chance to ride the fast one
    Walk away wiser when we crashed one
    Keep hopin' that the best one is the last one
    Yeah, you learn to fly, and if you can't, then you just freefall

    May we all
    May we all
    May we all
    May we all
    May we all (get to have a chance to ride the fast one)
    May we all (walk away wiser when we crashed one)
    May we all (keep hopin' that the best one is the last one)
    May we all (yeah, the last one)
    Yeah, you learn to fly, and if you can't, then you just freefall
