SONGWRITING

Red Dirt to Redwoods (WIP)

By: Laura Alford

Red dirt, red neck
Got a Southern twang
Need to keep in check

Red hot, red beans
Missing Louisiana
Y’all know what I mean

Sun’s hot, sun beams
Moved to California
Living the dream

Moved halfway across the country
Ran as far as I could run
Traded red dirt for redwoods
And I’m still on Highway One

Moved halfway across the country
Ran as far as I could run
Traded red dirt for redwoods
And I’m still on Highway One

Red river, red blood
Never rains here
So, it never floods

Red neck, redwood
Monterey cypress
Life is good

Sun shines, earth blooms
Moved to California
Eating funny ‘shrooms

Moved halfway across the country
Ran as far as I could run
Traded red dirt for redwoods
And I’m still on Highway One

Moved halfway across the country
Ran as far as I could run
Traded red dirt for redwoods
And I’m still on Highway One
