Kick Dust
The Lacs Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Kick dust.
Just get up on out of this rush,
Must slow it on down.
Life's tough but all I really need is a good time and some friends of mine.
Hit the gas,
Pass the lights of town,
Get back fast to my stomping ground.
When life ain't doin you right,
Take a little time,
Unwind, and kick dust.

Throw up that peace sign,
It's me and my own free time.
Won't see me around that work site
Cause I gotta go get that first bite.
Let's take a day,
Stay the night,
Slow it down,
And unwind.
Somehow it helps me out my boss ain't gotta get cussed out,
Yeah.
Kick that dust,
Crank that hank,
Turn it up.
Pop a top and just feel that breeze.
Locks the hubs and hit that creek
Straighten out that crooked path.
Things get bad but it never does last.
Get some girls and hit them ruts
All you gotta do is kick dust.

Kick dust.
Just get up on out of this rush,
Must slow it on down.
Life's tough but all I really need is a good time and some friends of mine.
Hit the gas,
Pass the lights of town,
Get back fast to my stomping ground.
When life ain't doin you right,
Take a little time,
Unwind, and kick dust.

Jump in the truck,
Ride on out.
Stomp it down to the edge of town.
Got a little girl that's waiting round to help me out cause I'm feelin down.
Forty hours,
I'm stressed out.
Hit the dirt and I'm stretched out.
Riverbank,
Get rest now,
Chillin with the best crowd.
Throw me a beer,
Hand me a lime,
Might even take a swig of shine.
No rush now,
I'm feelin fine,
Kickin dust just to ease my mind.
I can't help but think some times,
Ole Jonny paychecks have arrived,
When he said "You can take this job and shove it."
Life gets tough but you gotta love it.

Kick dust.
Just get up on out of this rush,
Must slow it on down.
Life's tough but all I really need is a good time and some friends of mine.
Hit the gas,
Pass the lights of town,
Get back fast to my stomping ground.
When life ain't doin you right,




Take a little time,
Unwind, and kick dust.
