She tried to pin me with a kiss, and I began to understand there's something women like about a pickup man. When I turned 16, I saved a few hundred bucks. My first car was a pickup truck. I was cruising the town and the first girl I see was Bobby Joe Gentry, the homecoming queen. She flagged me down and climbed up in the cabin said, I never knew you were a pickup man. You can set my truck on fire and roll it down a hill. And I still wouldn't wait before it could be veil. I got an eight-foot bed that never has to be made. You know, if it weren't for trucks, you wouldn't have tailgates. I met all my wives. The traffic jams are just something women like about a pickup man. Most private nights, I can be found in the bed of my truck on an old Jake's lounge. Back then to my spot at the driving show. You know a cargo light gives off a romantic blow. I never have to wait in line at the popcorn stand. Cause something wimmin' like a bada pickup man. You can set my truck on fire and roll it down a hill. And I still wouldn't trade it for a good feel. I got an eight-foot bet that never has to be made. You know if it weren't for trucks, it wouldn't have to gate. I met all my wives. Traffic jams, you're just something whimin' like a bide-pick-up man. Lucky to rush or a brand new machine. Once around the block, and you know what I mean. Set my truck on fire, and roll it down a hill and I feel waiting for a good bill. I got an eight-foot bed that never has to be made. You know if it works, it runs to work and have tailgate. I met all my wives. Traffic jam to get some of them women like about a pickup man. Yeah, there's some of them women like about a pick up man.

It's not like I lose and sleep, you're honestly. When the world don't turn and the summer sky ain't blue, when the stars don't glow and hell's as cold and Dolly's out of tune, and Johnny don't love June, and my heart don't stop when you walk in the room. That's when I get my feelings.

SPEAKER_12Rip currents cause an estimated one hundred deaths each year in the United States. In 2021, five of these deaths were on the Gulf Coast. Rip currents are the number one ruther-related killer at the beaches along the northern Gulf Coast. The number of rip current fatalities on these beaches is more than the fatalities of flooding, tornadoes, lightning, and tropical storms or hurricanes combined. Learn the facts. Before heading out to the beach, check current beach conditions and know what each flag means. Always swim near a lifeguard. Rip currents are narrow currents that flow away from the beach. If you notice you're being pulled away from the beach and are swimming and getting tired, you may be in a rip current. Think of it like a treadmill that you can't turn off. You want to step to the side of it, don't swim against the current, try to swim across it in a direction following the shoreline. Rip currents do not pull you under, but may take you as far out as a football field so people can tire quickly. The most important thing is to stay calm. If you can't escape the current, float or calmly tread water. Wave for help if you can. Rip current's strength eventually subsides and may even take you closer to shore. If you see someone caught in a rip current, call 911 or get a lifeguard and throw something that floats towards the victim. For more information, please visit www.visitalbeaches.com slash safety.
SPEAKER_05Another long, hard working day gone. Time to pack it up and head on home. Sun's gonna rise, and I know I gotta do it all over again.

Then my old truck found a front wrong spot. Gonna drive in, but I wasn't gonna stay. Then I heard a boss to call in my name. Wasn't gonna let the bar twist my arm, but I'm helpless and all it tones that I wasn't on the train. Then I thought just don't came on. I was on the out of the door when the bank kicked in two, three, four flame it on each for tipping at the burn and I'll be I was gonna drive, I wouldn't gonna stop. Then my whole drop down the front spot. Gonna drive in but I wouldn't gonna stay. Then I heard a bar to call the night. But I'm helpless and I'm gonna play I was gonna get it last week. And then a punter stone came on. Save it for the end of the week. I was gonna drop down what you don't stop. Then I'll drop down the phone on the start. Then I heard a ball, but I'm gonna work on the tank on the ball. I work on the tank.

Hunting, fishin', loving every day. Early in the morning, late in the evening. I'm getting red dir rich and flea river plate. Huntin' fishing, lovin' every day. I get a little farm pond bugs. Sound of gravel when I'm back it up. Pulling a string on a 9.92 stroke. I love it when my baby wants to roll with me. Throws her boots on, climbs in a tree. Tucking her hair in my hat, and she's ready to go. We get to hug. Love it every day. That's the pride that a country boy breaks. Thank God he made me this way. Love it every day. Early in the morning. Lovin' every day. So while y'all are up there, breathing in that old dirty air, I'll be down here, knee deep in the mother lake. A hunt and fish lovin' every day. I wanna see them tall pines sway. Y'all close them eyes. Let's go there in our mind. A hunt, two fishing, lovin' every day. That's the friend that's country for the race.
