Lyrics

Cottonwood fallin’ like snow in JulySunset, riverside, 4 wheel driveAnd a tail light circleRoll down the windows turn it on upPour a little Crown in a Dixie cupGet the party, started
Girl you make my speakers go boom boomDancin’ on the tailgate in the full moonThat kinda thing makes a man go mmm mmmYou’re lookin’ so good in what’s left of those blue jeansDrip of honey on the money make it gotta beThe best buzz I’m ever gonna findHey I’m a little drunk on youAnd high on summertime
If you aint a ten you’re a nine point nineTippin’ n’ spillin’ that home made wineOn your tied up T-shirtEvery little kiss is drivin’ me wildThrown little cherry bombs into my fireGood God all mighty
Girl you make my speakers go boom boomDancin’ on the tailgate in a full moonThat kinda thing makes a man go mmm mmmYou’re lookin’ so good in what’s left of those blue jeansDrip of honey on the money make it gotta beThe best buzz I’m ever gonna findHey, I’m a little drunk on youAnd high on summertime
Let’s slip on out where it’s a little bit darkerAnd when it gets a little bit hotterWe’ll take it off all out in the water
Girl you make my speakers go boom boomDancin’ on the tailgate in a full moonThat kinda thing makes a man go mmm mmmmYou’re lookin’ so good in what’s left of those blue jeansDrip of honey on the money make it gotta beThe best buzz I’m ever gonna findHey I’m a little drunk on youAnd high on summertime
Yeah I’m a little drunk on you
