Talkin' Dirt
Kenny Chesney Song Lyrics

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

'til 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

'til 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.
