Talkin’ Dirt Lyrics by Kenny Chesney
Daddy got fired, fell off the wagon
And Mama been busy just a Cadillac’n
With the preacher at the Super 8 Motel shaggin’
Got the whole town talkin’ ’bout what the hell happened
Sticks and stones
Little white lies
They get a little bit on ya
Headin’ for a mudslide headline
Just talkin’ dirt
From the diner to the dive bar, circle up the cars at the ballpark
Tell me what ya heard
Bobby kissed Misty, Johnny left Cindy cryin’ at the little white church
Keep ya secrets in your pocket, small-town gossip, like Bessie got some whiskey in her purse (At church)
Diggin’ them holes with a shovel of words, who’s gonna sling it first?
Just talkin’ dirt
Well, the hometown team had a chance at state
Till Johnny Be Good, well, he took a little taste
Of the puff, puff, pass at a boat house party
The news got to flyin’ just a like a walkie-talkie
If ya gonna hide bones
Ya better bury ’em deep
‘Cause it won’t be long
Till the rumors get to walkin’ and everybody’s
Talkin’ dirt
From the diner to the dive bar, circle up the cars at the ballpark
Tell me what ya heard
Bobby kissed Misty, Johnny left Cindy cryin’ at the little white church
Keep ya secrets in your pocket, small-town gossip, like Bessie got some whiskey in her purse (At church)
Diggin’ them holes with a shovel of words, who’s gonna sling it first?
Just talkin’ dirt
Just talkin’ dirt
Diggin’ them holes with a shovel of words, who’s gonna sling it first?
One road in, one road out
One way or another, the word gets ’round
Right in one ear, wrong out the other
Don’t the truth hurt like a mother?
When you’re talkin’ dirt
From the diner to the dive bar, circle up the cars at the ballpark
Tell me what ya heard
Bobby kissed Misty, Johnny left Cindy cryin’ at the little white church
Keep ya secrets in your pocket, small-town gossip, like Bessie got some whiskey in her purse (At church)
Diggin’ them holes with a shovel of words, who’s gonna sling it first?
Just talkin’ dirt
Just talkin’ dirt
