Homies by the fire
Maximus Cross
[Verse 1]
Friday night, the sun goes down
Old Chevy truck back on the edge of town
Got the cooler in the bed, ice rattle and hum
The boys are all here, every single one
[Verse 2]
Dust on the denim, scuffs on the boots
Holding on tight to our small-town roots
Somebody sparks the cedar pile high
Flames dancing up to the mid-December sky
[Pre-Chorus]
Mama said boys don’t do that, but mama ain’t around
Boots in the mud, laughs too deep, no rules in this town
[Chorus]
Oh, it’s a bromance burning like a hickory log
Leanin’ on each other in the firelight fog
A little bit of whiskey, a whole lot of heart
Nothing’s gonna tear this circle apart
Yeah, we’re brothers in the smoke, wild and free
Best damn group you’re ever gonna see
[Verse 3]
Hank’s got his arm round Miller’s neck
Talking 'bout that dent in the side of the deck
If the world could see us, they’d call it a crush
But it’s just us guys, no need for a hush
[Pre-Chorus]
Mama said boys don’t do that, but mama ain’t around
Boots in the mud, laughs too deep, no rules in this town
[Chorus]
Oh, it’s a bromance burning like a hickory log
Leanin’ on each other in the firelight fog
A little bit of whiskey, a whole lot of heart
Nothing’s gonna tear this circle apart
Yeah, we’re brothers in the smoke, wild and free
Best damn group you’re ever gonna see
[Bridge]
Truck radio cranked to a static-filled song
We’re all out of tune but we’re singing along
Ain’t no pride when the fire’s this hot
This is everything we need and all that we got
[Chorus]
Oh, it’s a bromance burning like a hickory log
Leanin’ on each other in the firelight fog
A little bit of whiskey, a whole lot of heart
Nothing’s gonna tear this circle apart
Yeah, we’re brothers in the smoke, wild and free
Best damn group you’re ever gonna see
[Outro]
(Laughing)
Put another log on, Miller.
Love you, man.
Yeah, love you too.
