we came up

so far on a dirt road

barely picking up the banjo

through the static on the radio

couldn't stop us singing

a front porch wit the fans on

a pretty girl to take a chance on

whatever we could get our hands on

is what we were drinking

we came up

in a one-stop staying one-night town

when the weekend came round

we'd get to getting down

we came up

with dirt on our hands and on our boots

and nothing much to lose

and nothing much to do

so we came up with our own good times

we came up with a reason why

we raised some hell in what was in our cup

that's how we came up

yeah that's how we came up

working hard for five days

getting paid on fridays

get a little bit sideways

ain't nothing wrong with that

it's all that taking it too far

made us who we are right now

yeah looking back i wouldn't change

a thing about how

we came up

in a one-stop staying one-night town

when the weekend came round

we'd get to getting down

we came up

with dirt on our hands and on our boots

and nothing much to lose

and nothing much to do

so we came up with our own good times

we came up with a reason why

we raised some hell in what was in our cup

that's how we came up

yeah that's how we came up

oh we came up

making something out of nothing

history

me

nowhere else we'd rather be

we came up with dirt on our hands and our boots

and nothing much to lose

and nothing much to do

so we came up with our own good times

we came up with a reason why

we raised some hell in what was in our cup

that's how we came up

yeah that's how we came up

oh

that's how we came up

that's how we came up
