Austin is currently making words rhyme and serving his time waiting on tables (and waiting on the tables to turn.) He's singing at writer's nights and tearing up the honky-tonks, paying his dues and livin' the dream in Tennessee. To quote his grandmother and the title of one of his own songs, Austin says it's his job these days to just "Suit Up Show Up Shut Up And Get The Job Done".

Ho-o-ome
I've been feelin' kinda homesick
I've been feelin' like I just don't fit in
Didn't know I would miss it like I do (like I do)
Too much black tie, not enough red rock
But all that changed, right when I saw you (saw you)
Lookin' like a Wild West sunset in that red dress
Hot like where I'm from, feelin' like
I'd never left you, got the best of
Everything I love, yeah I'm talkin'
Sweet like momma's lemonade
And you pour it on like a desert rain
Yeah, you make me wanna settle down
Girl, you've come and made this town
Ho-o-ome
And now I got a new home team
'Cause holding you girl, feels like home to me
And every turn just like a memory
I don't gotta go anywhere
Anytime I wanna see you
Wild West sunset in that red dress
Hot like where I'm from, feelin' like
I'd never left you, got the best of
Everything I love, yeah I'm talkin'
Sweet like momma's lemonade
And you pour it on like a desert rain
Yeah, you make me wanna settle down
Girl, you've come and made this town
Ho-o-ome
Yeah, you made this town
Ho-o-ome
Too much black tie, not enough red rock
Somethin' I could get used to
Ooh, as long as I got you
Lookin' like a Wild West sunset in that red dress
Hot like where I'm from, feelin' like
I'd never left you, got the best of
Everything I love, yeah I'm talkin'
Sweet like momma's lemonade
And you pour it on like a desert rain
Yeah, you make me wanna settle down
Girl, you've come and made this town
Ho-o-ome
Yeah, you made this town
Ho-o-ome
The lyrics of Austin Burke's song "Town Home" tell the story of a man who feels out of place and homesick in a new town. He longs for the familiar surroundings of his hometown with its red rocks and blue skies. However, he finds solace in the comfort and love of a woman who reminds him of home. She is compared to the sweetness of homemade lemonade and the refreshing feeling of a desert rain. Her presence makes him feel settled down and content, finally making the unfamiliar town feel like a true home.
