Outskirts Songtext
von Montgomery Gentry

Ten miles to the nearest store
A little dust on the dashboard
Peanut holes down on the floor
They don′t make them like us no more
Combine cutting through corn rows
Song cuttin' through static on the radio
Town with a name that you′ve never heard
Here on the outskirts

I'm all about that red dirt, hot girl in a T-shirt
Sweat ring on my ball cap
Cold beer in my hand when I get off work
I'm all about that blue sky
Blue jeans and a pocket knife
Me livin′ that simple life out here on the outskirts

Workin′ 'til my back hurts
Left arm, sun burned
That′s the way my world turns out here on the outskirts


We stick to God's plan, finish what we start, man
Carve out our own brand, out here in the Heartland
And on a clear night, I can see them city lights
While I watch the stars burn out here on the outskirts

I′m all about that red dirt, hot girl in a T-shirt
Sweat ring on my ball cap
Cold beer in my hand when I get off work
I'm all about that blue sky, blue jeans and a pocket knife
Me livin′ that simple life out here on the outskirts

Workin' 'til my back hurts
Left arm, sun burned
That′s the way my world turns
Out here on the outskirts of town
Sitting, watch the sun go down
We ain′t lost, but we can be found
Out here on the outskirts

I'm all about that red dirt, hot girl in a T-shirt
Sweat ring on my ball cap
Cold beer in my hand when I get off work
I′m all about that blue sky, blue jeans and a pocket knife
Me livin' that simple life out here on the outskirts


Workin′ 'til my back hurts
Left arm, sun burned
That′s the way my world turns
Out here on the outskirts

I'm all about that red dirt, hot girl in a T-shirt
Sweat ring on my ball cap
Out here on the outskirts
I'm all about that blue sky, blue jeans and a pocket knife
Me livin′ that simple life out here on the outskirts

Out here on the outskirts

I′m all about that red dirt, hot girl in a T-shirt
Sweat ring on my ball cap
Out here on the outskirts
I'm all about that blue sky, blue jeans and a pocket knife
Me livin′ that simple life out here on the outskirts
