​a country song Lyrics by Kelsea Ballerini

kelsea | ballerini [Double Album]

2020

[Verse 1]
When I need to put my feet back on the ground
I go back to my hometown
When I need a night to act my age
Me and my friends stay out too late
And when I need to feel good in my skin
I drop everything and run to him
When nothin' makes sense, but I need to talk
That's when I call my mom
[Chorus]
But I wanna write a country song
When nothin's gentle on my mind
And I'm needin' somethin' strong
And I'm almost out of wine
When I get so lonesome, my truth gets told some
Whether it's right or wrong
I stay up all night, done it my whole life
Sometimes, you've gotta write a country song
[Verse 2]
Got me through the drama with my ex
The first time that I had sex
The day the word "divorce" got really real
My first year in Nashville
Maybe it's 'cause of my raisin' or what my parents were playin'
Or when I feel my heart breakin', no hesitation
[Chorus]
I go and write a country song
When nothin's gentle on my mind
And I'm needin' somethin' strong
And I'm almost out of wine
When I get so lonesome, my truth gets told some
Whether it's right or wrong
I stay up all night, done it my whole life
Sometimes, you've gotta write a country song
[Bridge]
'Bout love, 'bout lies, 'bout my baby's truck
Real life, that's the stuff, yeah
First kiss, last car, bad breakin' ups
My life, that's what
[Chorus]
Makes me write a country song
When nothin's gentle on my mind
And I'm needin' somethin' strong
And now I'm out of wine
When I get so lonesome, my truth gets told some
Whether it's right or wrong
Gets me every time, story of my life
There ain't nothin' like a country song
[Outro]
('Bout love, 'bout lies, 'bout my baby's truck)
Yeah (Real life, that's the stuff, yeah)
A country song (First kiss, last car, bad breakin' ups)
(My life, that's what) Hey
