Lyrics Demun Jones – Firecracker

Text:

I’m a firecracker, you better back up off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, yeah I’m about to go off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, y’all done lit my fuse
I’m ’bout to blow it up, I can’t lose, I refuse

‘Cause I’m a firecracker, you better back up off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, yeah I’m about to go off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, y’all done lit my fuse
I’m ’bout to blow it up, I can’t lose, I refuse

I got that muddy, muddy river water from the ug-muggie
Camouflage-covered, can’t see me, can’t touch me
Real tree roots run deep, can you feel me
Can rock a show alone with nothin’ on me but a six-string
Banjos and drums like you ain’t heard
Disobeying old country traditions, it’s absurd
Stompin’ in my boots, they line-dancin’ in some Lous
Bouncin’ to my music now they downloadin’ my tunes
See my daddy told me keep puttin’ one foot in front
And don’t stop ’til you standing on what you want
And now the top ain’t far, I can see it from here
I’m ’bout to blow it up, y’all stand clear of this here

‘Cause I’m a firecracker, you better back up off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, yeah I’m about to go off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, y’all done lit my fuse
I’m ’bout to blow it up, I can’t lose, I refuse
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, you better back up off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, yeah I’m about to go off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, y’all done lit my fuse
I’m ’bout to blow it up, I can’t lose, I refuse

I swim with alligators, fry green tomatoes
Catalyst for country-rap, man, I love haters

Live by the rifle, die by the bible
Monday through Sunday it’s a down-south revival
Press huntin’ clothes, Georgia boots and all
Bearded up, it’s like that, my hat’s made straw
«Yes, ma’am, no ma’am», can’t hide my southern drawl
Especially when we say «ain’t», we say «y’all»
It may sound funny but don’t get it wrong
I’m a firecracker for real not just in a song
If you wanna see a show, come close, feel free
But I bet you won’t grab me (Hell naw)

‘Cause I’m a firecracker, you better back up off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, yeah I’m about to go off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, y’all done lit my fuse
I’m ’bout to blow it up, I can’t lose, I refuse
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, you better back up off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, yeah I’m about to go off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, y’all done lit my fuse
I’m ’bout to blow it up, I can’t lose, I refuse

‘Cause I’m a firecracker until I breathe my last breath
Until the barn burns down and there’s no south left
Until my beard won’t grow and my dog won’t fetch
Until I can’t reel it in on this 10-pound test
‘Til there’s no buck to hunt and gut, mount and dress
Until there’s no field to cut and no hay bales left
Until this heart ain’t beatin’ in my chest
Until this heart ain’t beatin’ in my chest

I’ll be a firecracker, you better back up off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, yeah I’m about to go off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, y’all done lit my fuse
I’m ’bout to blow it up, I can’t lose, I refuse
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, you better back up off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, yeah I’m about to go off
‘Cause I’m a firecracker, y’all done lit my fuse
I’m ’bout to blow it up, I can’t lose, I refuse
