Tailgate Dust

[Verse 1]
Sun-baked bed of the old red truck
Cooler rattlin' in the rust and dust
My boots on the dash, my hat on low
Got a weekend plan and nowhere to go

You got that grin, that small-town spark
Bare feet swingin' off the dock at dark
If the road goes long, I don't mind
Long as I got you by my side

[Pre-Chorus]
Let the work boots rest
Let the good times roll
That river bend is callin'
And I'm ready to go

[Chorus]
Tailgate dust, tailgate dust
Kick it up, shake it off, let it fly
Tailgate dust, tailgate dust
You and me and a little moonlight
(hey now)
Tailgate dust, tailgate dust
That's the kind of night that feels just right

[Verse 2]
Grandpa's radio crackles low
Some old tune from a long time ago
We laugh too loud at nothin' much
Fingerprints on a red solo cup

The fire pops by the county line
Your head on my shoulder, mine on time
If this is all, then that's enough
Nothing fancy, just tailgate dust

[Pre-Chorus]
Let the work boots rest
Let the good times roll
That river bend is callin'
And I'm ready to go

[Chorus]
Tailgate dust, tailgate dust
Kick it up, shake it off, let it fly
Tailgate dust, tailgate dust
You and me and a little moonlight
(hey now)
Tailgate dust, tailgate dust
That's the kind of night that feels just right

[Bridge]
We don't need much, baby
Just a gravel road and truth
A little hell from yesterday
And a whole lot less to do

[Final Chorus]
Tailgate dust, tailgate dust
Kick it up, shake it off, let it fly
Tailgate dust, tailgate dust
You and me and a little moonlight
(hey now)
Tailgate dust, tailgate dust
That's the kind of night that feels just right
