Small town Texas sons and daughters
You hustle all your buddies off
Slap your gimme cap on
But you lost the toss
And it's a toss of the coin to see who's got fifteen minutes
Why? Well, you got their money
When it's eleven forty five
And your friends back in Gilmer
To make a thirty minute drive
Now fair is fair but life's a gamble
Making the run
Making the run, making the run
You lost the toss
You're making the run to Gladewater
That means you're taking up the money
And their six pack of beer
But it's okay, you're on your way
It was Saturday night
Making the run
The back of your truck
Here's what you do
You was sitting 'round the square
They're your friends indeed
Run, boys
You grab your girl, you say, c'mon let's
Louder than you ought to
That means you're making the run
You're taking up the money
Highway 79 thirty miles on down
Making the run to Gladewater
It's 79 to the county line
Tuck your jeans in your boots
That's what you do
And to run out of beer means a run to Gladewater
And the Mini Mart with not one to spare
Turn the country music radio station
