Dixie Crystal
She was first runner up to the homecoming queen
He was a blown out knee from riding that crimson tide
Didn't wanna stay, but way too poor to leave
They took their first hit on graduation night
'Cause when you've got roots in the ground of a sleepy town
Everybody's gotta find a way to fly
Some find the road and some find Jesus
Some just find the cheapest way to get high
Sweet as sugar and deadly as a pistol
Gettin' that fix on Dixie Crystal
Now they cook in the kitchen but they barely ever eat
Those high school dreams are gone in a cloud of smoke
She used to want a house and a diamond ring
Now she just wants the rocks that get her stoned
'Cause when you've got roots in the ground of a sleepy town
Everybody's gotta find a way to fly
Some find the road and some find Jesus
Some just find the cheapest way to get high
Sweet as sugar and deadly as a pistol
Gettin' that fix on Dixie Crystal
Gonna fall this far if you're gonna get that high
Cops kick in the door while the baby screams
He was a blown out knee from riding that crimson tide
She was first runner up to the homecoming queen
'Cause when you've got roots in the ground of a sleepy town
Everybody's gotta find a way to fly
Some find the road and some find Jesus
Some just find the cheapest way to get high
Sweet as sugar and deadly as a pistol
Gettin' that fix on Dixie Crystal
He was a blown out knee from riding that crimson tide
Didn't wanna stay, but way too poor to leave
They took their first hit on graduation night
'Cause when you've got roots in the ground of a sleepy town
Everybody's gotta find a way to fly
Some find the road and some find Jesus
Some just find the cheapest way to get high
Sweet as sugar and deadly as a pistol
Gettin' that fix on Dixie Crystal
Now they cook in the kitchen but they barely ever eat
Those high school dreams are gone in a cloud of smoke
She used to want a house and a diamond ring
Now she just wants the rocks that get her stoned
'Cause when you've got roots in the ground of a sleepy town
Everybody's gotta find a way to fly
Some find the road and some find Jesus
Some just find the cheapest way to get high
Sweet as sugar and deadly as a pistol
Gettin' that fix on Dixie Crystal
Gonna fall this far if you're gonna get that high
Cops kick in the door while the baby screams
He was a blown out knee from riding that crimson tide
She was first runner up to the homecoming queen
'Cause when you've got roots in the ground of a sleepy town
Everybody's gotta find a way to fly
Some find the road and some find Jesus
Some just find the cheapest way to get high
Sweet as sugar and deadly as a pistol
Gettin' that fix on Dixie Crystal
