Lawhorn, JJ - Sittin' On A Tailgate Lyrics






When them city boys cross the county lines
We circle the trucks cut on the lights
Man I've seen some good fights
Sittin' on a tailgate,
Me and my daddy waitin' on the sun
Double ought buck shot in my gun
Black and tan hound dog itchin' to run
Sittin' on a tailgate

Drop it down, jump on up
The things you can see from the back of a truck
A front row seat to laugh and love
At a small town pace
Hey if you're looking for me, I can be found
With these old boots a few feet off the ground
Sittin' on a tailgate

We found a little spot we like to park
From that first kiss she stole my heart
But one night man she tore it apart
Sittin' on a tailgate,
I've sung my share of old Hank songs
Even wrote a few of my own
All my buddies they sing along
Sittin' on a tailgate

Drop it down, jump on up
The things you can see from the back of a truck
A front row seat to laugh and love
At a small town pace
Hey if you're looking for me, I can be found
With these old boots a few feet off the ground
Sittin' on a tailgate

Drop it down, jump on up
The things you can see from the back of a truck
A front row seat to laugh and love
At a small town pace
Hey if you're looking for me, I can be found
With these old boots a few feet off the ground
Sittin' on a tailgate,
Ohh yeah
Sittin' on a tailgate

    I don't see how this guys not more popular, never hear him on the radio down here in Texas. So far he sings better than Luke Bryan.

    J.... S....

    then u won't believe this.He lived in Virginia with his sister on a horse farm his sisters name is melody lawhorn and guess what. His sister is my godmother and I used to listen to him play his music in his house

    J.... S....

    It's probably because there are dozens, if not hundreds of generic country singers singing about the same old small town, sittin' in the back of the same old pickup truck, wearing the same old cowboy boots and hats, singing about the same old girl, drinkin' the same old beer, shooting the same old deer, catching the same old fish, etc . . .

    J.... S....

    Gibson Guy your wrong. most country isn't even like that anymore. all they sing about is girls and skinny jeans

    J.... S....

    TheRealFox92 I requested this song on FL’s 1035 and it wasn’t it their inventory but the lady is going to talk to her managers and superiors to get him played more often

    J.... S....

    Just cause your youtube famous doesnt make you famous enough to be on radio lol

  69. s.... ....

    85 f-150 xlt lariat 4x4 with a 351w. I'm sitting on her tail gate right now

  73. C.... M....

  74. D.... ....

    This is an amazing song. And shows what country is all about these days.

  75. S.... ....

    these vehicles are inefficient fuel-wise. burning fossil fuel in general is an unreliable resource. it isn't renewable and we are destroying the planet. trump sorry

    S.... ....

    +Joseph LePage hopefully it would be "climate change is real and we are not living sustainably"

    S.... ....

    +ScottDoingStuff Hate to break it to ya, but diesels are and always will be cleaner than yer Prius bud.

    S.... ....

    I got your climate change coming out of my exhaust pipe buddy

    S.... ....
