Songtext Champaign tundra Upchurch

Champaign tundra

Packed up head out for the summer sun
String bikinis and cut up shirts
For a long road trip out to PCB
Just to get burnt and lay on a beach
Hit the strip a couple dozen times
Waste a tank of gas to feel alive
And in the black smoke blue lights and straight pipes roarin'

I seen this champaign tundra
With the windows rolled down soaked in rain chasin' beach side thunder
And sometimes I wonder
When the summer's over and the rubber hits the road where you're goin'
Champaign tundra
Champaign tundra

In chaos a world full of tears
But the world stands still when it's boots on a pier
And everybody's at a bar not rememberin' here
I'll be swingin' these Wrangler boot cuts once a year
Ridin' white sand blue sky tank-top Shakespear
Smoked too many joints and drank too much beer
Laughed too damn hard playin' guitar loud
Gettin' kicked out those regency towers

Inside a champaign tundra
With the windows rolled down soaked in rain chasin' beach side thunder
And sometimes I wonder
When the summer's over and the rubber hits the road where you're goin'
Champaign tundra
Champaign tundra
With the windows rolled down soaked in rain chasin' beach side thunder

The smell of salt and your drink too strong
A weathered old Martin with the clear coat gone
Bendin' all six strings to them back then songs
'Til the whiskey don't help and my boys 'bout gone
Got the sand in a can of tobacco cut long
With her green accent when I hug her [?]
Sunset, eyes red, with a Boss shirt on
And it shows when I write about her

Champaign tundra
With the windows rolled down drenched in rain chasin' beach side thunder
And sometimes I wonder
When the summer's over and the rubber hits the road where you're goin'
