I catch my buzz in the black of night
Where nobody ever goes and the warm wind blows
If I loose my cool in the open and it shows
That I´m down and I ain´t alright

I search my soul where there is no moon
The trees all cross and are covered in moss
If the crickets wanna know then I´ll tell them what I lost
Oh, I got the tailgate blues

I ain´t sure were it all began
Somewhere ´round here I know
This bridge was a little more crowded then
I was playing her a tailgate show
And now I´m just sittin´ here alone

To catch my buzz in the black of night
Where nobody ever goes and the warm wind blows
If I loose my cool in the open and it shows
That I´m down and I ain´t alright

I search my soul where there is no moon
The trees all cross and are covered in moss
If the crickets wanna know then I´ll tell them what I lost
Oh I´ve got the tailgate blues

Damn that AM radio
For playing more than a song
My heart won´t beat if the strings are broke
The melody´s hittin´ me wrong
Right here where she belongs

I catch my buzz in the black of night
Where nobody ever goes and the warm wind blows
If I loose my cool in the open and it shows
That I´m down and I ain´t alright

I search my soul where there is no moon
The trees all cross and are covered in moss
If the crickets wanna know then I´ll tell them what I lost
Oh, I got the tailgate blues

The crickets heard my story and I listened to em sing
I guess I´ll close the tailgate up
There ain´t no telling what tomorrow might bring
Maybe me and a Dixie cup
But that won´t be enough…

Yes I catch my buzz in the black of night
Where nobody ever goes and the warm wind blows
If I loose my cool in the open and it shows
That I´m down and I ain´t alright

I search my soul where there is no moon
The trees all cross and are covered in moss
If the crickets wanna know then I´ll tell them what I lost
Oh, I got the tailgate blues

I catch my buzz in the black of night
Where nobody ever goes and the warm wind blows
If I loose my cool in the open and it shows
That I´m down and I ain´t alright
