I been feeling like a hound on a collar

Need out of this town, need some muddy creek water

Smoke on the ridge and some shine from a holler

With the coyotes singin' in the backwoods

Well, this concrete jungle feels like prison

Noise so loud you can't even listen

This rat race life don't feel like livin'

Like a way out would

(Oh, like a way out would)

Everybody's movin' in, but buddy, I'm leavin'

This eight-lane smog ain't worth breathin'

It ain't giving me the freedom I'm needin'

Like a way out would

(Like a way out)

'Cause I been feeling like a hound on a collar

Need out of this town, need some muddy creek water

Smoke on the ridge and somе shine from a holler

With the coyotеs singin' in the backwoods

These boots need dirt, soul needs savin'

In a place that ain't changed since the good Lord made it

Nothin's gonna do this good old boy some good

Yeah, like a way out would

(I been feeling like a hound on a collar)

Yeah, if the stars burn out and the sun stops risin'

If it all goes south, stocks start divin'

If anywhere's gonna give me a

chance at country boy survivin'

Way out would

(Yeah, a country boy can survive)

Yeah, I need to be way out in them woods

'Cause I been feeling like a hound on a collar

Need out of this town, need some muddy creek water

Smoke on the ridge and some shine from a holler

With the coyotes singin' in the backwoods

These boots need dirt, soul needs savin'

In a place that ain't changed since the good Lord made it

Nothin's gonna do this good old boy some good

Yeah, like a way out would

Oh yeah, like a way out would

Yeah, need a little more time in the pines

Way out in them woods

Little more ease my mind

Would do this old boy good

'Cause I been feeling like a hound on a collar

Need out of this town, need some muddy creek water

Smoke on the ridge and some shine from a holler

(With the coyotes singin' in the backwoods)

These boots need dirt, soul needs savin' (soul needs savin')

In a place that ain't changed since the good Lord made it

(good Lord made it)

Nothin's gonna do this good old boy some good

Yeah, like a way out would

Oh, like a way out would

I been feeling like a hound on a collar

Need out of this town, need some muddy creek water

Smoke on the ridge and some shine from a holler

With the coyotes singin' in the backwoods
