- When I get back to Oklahoma
I’ll be a little better off than I am right now
And you talk so strong but you can’t stand straight
How’d you fall for a man I’ve grown to hate
And I can drive you by where I learned to curse
He’s got his creased dress whites in an all black hearse
Why’s the green more green in the east of Eden
Swing on by cuz I know you ain’t eaten
Did the city beat your ass like the trash you are
There’s still smoke smell in your old fast car
You can’t hide where you’re from
With nightcrawler blood on your casting thumb
You can fight and fiend and sell your guns
But you’ll always be the Oklahoman son
When I get back to Oklahoma
I’ll be a little better off than I am right now
I can’t buy her a house like I swore I would
When I was naïve and eager child
And money can’t buy no friend of mine
And money can’t buy me back no time
You can’t hide where you’re from
With nightcrawler blood on your casting phone
You can fight and fiend and sell your guns
But you’ll always be the Oklahoman Son
You’ll always be the Oklahoman son
You can’t hide where you’re from
With nightcrawler blood on your casting phone
You can fight and fiend and sell your guns
But you’ll always be the Oklahoman Son
You’ll always be the Oklahoman Son - Hudba
Zach you got me singing again my dude. I'm a country boy from rural Oregon. Been down in the city too long. Moving back home on the ranch to help my parents with the horses, chickens, and dogs. Been making that hour drive once a week playing your music most of the time. Ended things with my fiance after four years. Something in the Orange is what I played on the stereo when I dropped her off at her new apartment with the last load of furniture. We both cried like crazy and gave each other a big hug. Don't know you man but I got love for you in Portland.
That's nice I'm right out of Detroit Oregon, that's amazing
Flint here
I’m moving Alabama and ever since I have had more peace and been closer to god
Only the strong are carved from the red clay of Oklahoma. Only the strong survive the toughest most beautiful land in all the free world. At the end of your life, no, there ain't no diploma. Only debt and strife are left when you're unfurled. Oh, it's the hardest place to bite your tongue, then drive to the edge when you shout your heart. There ain't no lie in my pledge and no shame to impart. Praise God, I'm an Oklahoman Son. Praise God I AM an Oklahoman Son.
My gma and her family is from OK, I love it!
This is the sleeper on the album and a perfect way to cap it off. What a heartfelt song.
Thank you so much Zach. Your music has helped me through hell. And you inspired me to start my own music career
Lol
@@griffinstewart9327stroke me
Agree. His songs help me cope with as$ hats like the one that commented lol.
I bet you’re really good
Give it a shot you could end up being good, you never know until you try worst is you end up being bad and will have a funny story when your old about trying to be a rock star lmao
"how'd you fall for the man I've grown to hate" hits on so many levels
“Money can’t buy no friend of mine and money can’t buy me back no time.” Classic
As an Oklahoma boy who left home 12 years ago and never came back. This made me cry like a baby.
Amen
I left around the same time, and I did the same hearing this song. Everytime I listen to it I just wish I could pack it all up and head back home. Least I got a gravestone waiting for me in Connerville.
I'm from a small Oklahoma town. I love this song!!!!
Been in Ok. my whole life 49. I'm a proud Okie! Bomer Sooner! Love, Peace nd Happiness. God bless you and everyone 😇 Love your music and voice.
Jesus this guy just can NOT miss even if he wanted too. He is such an extremely rare talent. A literal league of his own
Been gone from home almost twenty years and never had this bad of a case of homesickness til I listened to this song. I just keep listening to it over and over. Damn Zach you hit this old man in the heart
This is my favorite Song on the album by far. Such an instant classic. Beautiful song writing. Pulls on the heart strings so hard..I’m officially a huge fan. Thanks for blessing us w this album!
For real
Moving away from Oklahoma broke my heart and saved my life.... This Northern VA life is working for me for now, but my soul's still somewhere out on the Plains.
So we’re all just here at midnight ready to have our hearts ripped apart
That part homie my girl pmo and I feel like I’m at home‼️
I'm from the South of Ireland and I been learning your songs literally got me into country now I listen to you and Tyler childers definitely the best country artists imo
The wordsmith Zach Bryan out here serving raised hairs and goose bumps.
I HEARD THIS ONE IN TULSA A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO I LOVE IT SM!!! ❤
I Was there!
Zach was my favorite artist 4 years ago and four years later he still is
Best song on the album bro every lil damn thing about home that makes it feel right, tears you up inside knowing it’s a part of you, you’ll never be able to take with you and you’ll never be able to leave it behind. Love you man been watchin you go the past three years, listened to damn near every song when I found you, saw my reflection in the lyrics the pain, the love, the loss, the confusion, the hate. Genuinely means so much to me man.
I Still Remember That Old Cedar House
I still remember the neighbors and bbqs we shared, step dad strung out, falling down inebriated and impaired. I still remember often feeling angry and scared and looking back, I hate how much I cared.
I still remember believing violence was just part of life, watching a worthless husband beat his kids and wife. No love without sacrifice, no living without strife. If you wanna heal you gotta first pull out that knife, then pack the wound with all the good memories of life.
I was too young not to be innocent, hard to believe it ever really existed. Dark days grabbing anything for some luminescence, eleven years old waving goodbye to adolescence.
Mama working two jobs and always stressing, watch as her tears fall without a blessing, this thing called life is so oppressing, forever fighting for scraps in an endless recession, it's so depressing.
Not many know what this life is about, just trying our best to figure stuff out, using what we got and doing without, we’ll make it one day I have no doubt. I made it this far and got away from that old Cedar house, God knows I’ve tried to drown it out, looking back I wanna scream and shout, “Forget you, I know my worth, I’ll never sellout.”
My little brother could do no harm til he smoked that stuff and stuck needles in his arm. I wonder what his life could have been, damn near a Saint without sin, I thought he’d always be the one to win.
The pain and hole in my heart grows, each time I think about the people I lost heaven knows. If you could, you’d carry them on your back, even give them your clothes, you hate the life that they chose, but that’s just how the story goes, through the highs and the lows.
I still remember the way the wind smelled, that dry dust in the air with a hint of honeysuckle. I still remember the way that belt felt, leather hide and brass belt buckle.
I still remember how hot it’d get, only way to stay cool was a plastic pool and a rubber hose to stay wet.
No tv and no electricity, playing outside with bare feet til dusk cut on the light down the street.
I still remember that old tire swing and the sound of that guitar missing strings. Love to hate where we come from, you gotta struggle to overcome, just another life in the Slums.
I am an Oklahoman Son.

Very eloquent. Keep writing
Yo that's pretty good, you make songs or somethng? you post anywhere?
Jesus loves, Jesus saves. When you are down, he will lift you up. When you are up, plant the seed.
Zack you have done Oklahoma so proud. So very proud the way you have handled yourself, the way you treat people. I told my nephew I remember him he had the nicest manners, when he introduced you to me, while the two of you were still in high school. I love your music. Thank you for your service to our country.
This is such a great song. Soul touching. Night crawler blood on his casting thumb.
You can’t hide where you’re from, With nightcrawler blood on your castin thumb… 😍
PA girl over here!
Same!!!
❤❤❤❤❤ A part of history I am honored to be here. Honored to have seen you in St. Charles Iowa at hinterland you were stunning! Love you from this Tulsa girl❤
This man never misses.
Thank you for your Service Zach and thank you for these songs and lyrics. They bring back so many memories and I am very thankful for what your music does for so many. Love them all. I hope your tour brings you somewhere close so that I can watch your concert. It will remain a bucket list for me until I can. Thank you!!
Zach, your music touches somwhere so deep that not even myself can find yet. Thank you!
Gave me goose bumps! I was stationed in OK for so many years that I’m basically part Oklahoman now. This one is a banger for sure!
Zach you are incredible, keep up the good work👌
From one Oklahoma brotha to another this amazing
For some reason I kept saying this album was gonna kill me but I find it healing me and I love that for myself. For that I would commend Zach for this absolute bomb of an album.
i am about to shed so many tears oh my word.
Thank god it’s here 🙏🏻
Nothing better on a Thursday night.
As a fellow Oklahoman, this one does it for me.
I tried to temper my expectations for this album. How do you possibly write a better album than American Heartbreak?! But this… this is the *best* album I’ve ever heard ❤
Just an addition to this perfect Friday!
From northern Ireland love it
Zach never fails
Im proud to be born and raised 48 years Jacktown Oklahoma aka Lincoln Co. , where this boys blood is bound
Outstanding! Sounds like cruising 88 south to Claremore.
IT'S DROPPED!!!!!!!!
Thank you for being you and sharing it with all of us! My husband went through hell over time, starting with losing his mom at 21 , he has overcome so much, we have fought his demons and I will always stand next to him. Your music has resonated and helped put it in words for us. Seeing you live brought us to tears , our kids sing your songs daily. Just thank you so much, you have no idea what your music means to us.
@@superstartradesman6306 thank you the best to you and yours as well! Godspeed

Hell ya Zach
Love ya man
Love to see how you’ve come
Thank you Zach your music inspires me in so many ways ❤
I fell in love with Oklahoma years ago and take any chance I can to go back. I feel like I belong there . I have never had a bad time. A few bad hangovers but that’s it!
😂😂😂
Hell yeah zach. Keep it rolllin broths
I’m so damn excited
Already sobbing
This is what we love about you the raw unplugged stuff. Record the album with you and your guitar around a campfire with some great mic’s and leave the producers out… all they do is take away the rawness and pure emotion that got us into you in the first place. Yay being said still love the album but all acoustic to me just resonates Soo much more emotion.
I love you Zach ❤️💪
Love the Steinbeck reference. Started reading him and Hemmingway way back around 11 or 12 years old. I still read through my favorites every 10 years or so. It's amazing how different things look with the perspective of age
Where are my fellow Oklahomans

@@m3rk114Maaaan, you gotta get out of that cold snow infested place.
love you zach currently learning to do a cover on sun to me
Man, you're making Oklahoma seem like a better place than I remembered it being growin up
Just because it was bad for you then, doesn’t mean it is now. Maybe you had the wrong mindset, or you were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Regardless, Oklahoma always welcomes you, and there is always a place for you here, somewhere.
I love Oklahoma! I left for 10 yrs for the Army before I returned. I stared at the orange sunsets everyday for a year after my return. Home is home....Oklahoma.
Just when I thought I couldn't love a Zach Bryan song more. The fact that most of your songs don't have a percussion element and still sound/play better than most mainstream country music is profound to me. I've always loved the acoustics of these types of songs.
Why I love it. Emotion and good songwriting just needs a few chords and an honest voice. That is exactly Zach Bryan.
Love your songs Zach
top tier album
where would my broken ass heart be without zach.
real
“Did the city beat you up like the trash you are” hard hitting lyrics right there
