Oh, I love how the hot wind blows
Up and down burnet county backroads
It’s time to unwind and to unload
This city strife and to it go

I'm tired of that big town dealing
I Come alive with this country feeling
So stick me in the middle of the cattle feeding
And I’ll feel right at home
Catch a whopper in the watering hole
Catfish are biting and they won’t let go
No fury or sound
For a soul whose found
On the burnet county backroad

No city lights 'cause I’ll leave 'em lay
Like a bitter past, so far away
I got a chandelier we call the Moon
And a million stars light up my room

I'm tired of that big town dealing
I come alive with this country feeling
So stick me in the middle of the cattle feeding
And I’ll feel right at home
Catch a whopper in the watering hole
Catfish are biting and they won’t let go
No fury or sound
For a soul whose found
On the burnet county backroad

Not a care in the open air, it's so good to my soul
Makes me fonder of the road I wandered down to get here
Though deep in my heart I wonder where'd all them cowboys go?
Oh, oh, oh
