People In The Back

No, you ain't lookin' for a shout-out or a spotlight

You're just happy to be here drinkin' cold beer

In your cheap seats, on a Friday night

Workin' a long week off

I sing plenty of songs about love gone right and love gone wrong

But this ain't that, this is for the people in the back, yeah

For the boy in the back pew, headed back to

The front lines in the mornin'

The mom rockin' dad's role, in her work clothes

She ain't in it for the glory

The angels in the wings tryna fly behind the scenes

I know where you're at

Yeah, tonight I'm singin' loud for

All them people in the back

Yeah, you know who you are

From way on up in the nosebleeds to the front row

Betcha everybody in this place has got a unsung hero

That's for damn sure, and they all deserve to have a good time

So everybody raise one high

For the boy in the back pew, headed back to

The front lines in the mornin'

The mom rockin' dad's role, in her work clothes

She ain't in it for the glory

The angels in the wings tryna fly behind the scenes

I know where you're at

Yeah, tonight I'm singin' loud for

All them people in the back

Yeah, uh

Yeah, I know this light's on me

But, man, I damn sure wouldn't be

Right where I'm at

Without them people in the back

Talkin' 'bout the boy in the back pew, headed back to

The front lines in the mornin'

The mom rockin' dad's role, in her work clothes

She ain't in it for the glory

The angels in the wings tryna fly behind the scenes

I know where you're at

Yeah, tonight I'm singin' loud for

All them people in the back

All y'all people in the back

You bet
