WHISKEY MYERS
"Dogwood"
(Cody Cannon / Brent Cobb / Aaron Raitere)

Dancing on a creek bank
Blue eyes and auburn hair
It was the best years of our lives
We didn't have a care
Going 90 miles an hour
A truck and an old dirt road
Two young ass kids
Back where the dogwood flowers grow

Then graduation came
You was big city bound
I wasn't going nowhere fast
So I just hung around
By the next time I seen you
Your love had grown cold
So I guess you broke my heart
Back where the dogwood flowers grow

White on the bloom
That April moon
It could have been forever darlin' had we stayed together
But you had to go
Time don't slow
It took further from your home
Back where the dogwood flowers grow

So I took to drinking
I guess you wouldn't recognize me
My souls been torn and twisted
Like that old dogwood tree
We used to talk about forever
But that was a million miles ago
So I'll see ya if I see ya
Back where the dogwood flowers grow

White on the bloom
That April moon
When You ain't dead set on leavin
And you miss the one your needin
Just grit and grin
And remember when
You had that hand to hold
Back where the dogwood flowers grow
The dogwood flowers grow
The dogwood flowers grow
The dogwood flowers grow
