Pinestraw

The idea for this song came to me while out running this fall and seeing pine straw on the ground. I couldn't get the driving beat out of my head and this was the result. A lot of songs that I write cover deeper subject matter but this one was just for fun and to celebrate southern culture.

Pinestraw
By: Andrew Allen

Work hard all week 8 to 5 that’s just what we do
Get a little rowdy on a Friday night Sunday sitting in a pew
Football Saturday watching our team play ‘gainst it don’t matter who
Grillout tailgate drinking sweet tea eating some barbecue

In the pinestraw come on y’all head on back into the woods
With the pinestraw come on y’all get a little crazy out in the woods
Pinestraw come on y’all head on back into the woods
Pinestraw come on y’all get a little crazy out in the woods

Spring time green time pollen all around moving in to June
Down by the creek on summer nights swimming by the light of the moon
Sitting round a camp fire starlight outside whippoorwill singing his tune
We’re all here to have a good time ain’t nobody leaving soon

Pinestraw come on y’all head on back into the woods
Pinestraw come on y’all get a little crazy out in the woods
Pinestraw come on y’all head on back into the woods
Pinestraw come on y’all get a little crazy out in the woods

Got a little money spend it on my honey we going out tonight
To a hoedown throw down out in the woods tonight
Swing your partner round and round hold her close and hold her tight
Out on the dance floor that’s what we’re here for keep on dancing till we see the sunlight

In the pinestraw come on y’all head on back into the woods
With the pinestraw come on y’all get a little crazy out in the woods
Pinestraw come on y’all head on back into the woods
Pinestraw come on y’all get a little crazy out in the woods

No matter where you go, remember where you’re from and come on back now ya hear
No matter where you go remember where you’re from and come on back now ya hear
No matter where you go just remember where you’re from and come on back now ya hear
No matter where you go remember where you’re from and come on back now ya hear

To the pinestraw come on y’all head on back into the woods
Pinestraw come on y’all get a little crazy out in the woods
Pinestraw come on y’all head on back into the woods
Pinestraw come on y’all get a little crazy out in the woods
