Nothing like this song to make you wish you grew up on dirt roads. I love within one line, a song can instantly transport you from your car, living room, wherever, right onto the exact location of the song.
So amazing to watch Luke Bryan carve out a place for himself in country music.
So unreal that here we are Labor Day weekend, which means that summer is officially over. Crazy to think that I am a junior in college now. Ridiculous. Well, I feel like the pinnacle of my summer was 8/29 when we went to see Luke's Dirt Road Diaries tour at the NYS Fair, which featured Thompson Square and Kelleigh Bannen (My favorite person ever!) Ever since that concert ended, all I want to do is go back. Regardless of the overly-intoxicated and way too obnoxious people that obstructed my view, hands down, this is one of the best concerts I've ever been to. Amazing, amazing, amazing!
For starters, although I love Luke, the second I saw Kelleigh's name on that bill, I bought the tickets. This girl is too amazing for words...she's getting her own entry.
I guess my seats were actually meant to be. Although we've sat in the grandstand for almost every show we've seen at the fair (not intentionally), the one thing I've never realized until this time is that I first-handedly had the ability to witness the power of a song. Literally. Amazing how once you're older, you realize everything you knew all along. Honestly, I don't know what was louder, Luke himself, or 17,000 people singing along. Unreal, out of body experience.

Song: "Country Girl (Shake It For Me)"
Got a little boom in my big truck
Gonna open up the doors and turn it up
Gonna stomp my boots in the Georgia mud,
Gonna watch you make me fall in love
Get up on the hood of my daddy's tractor,
up on the toolbox it don't matter
Down on the tailgate girl i can't wait
To watch you do your thing
Shake it for the young bucks sittin' in the honky-tonks
For the rednecks rockin' 'till the break of dawn
For the DJ spinning that country song
c'mon c'mon c'mon
Shake it for the birds
Shake it for the bees
Shake it for the catfish swimming down deep in the creek
For the crickets
and the critters
and the squirrels
Shake it for the moon
Shake it for me girl
Country girl shake it for me
girl shake it for me
girl shake it for me
Somebody's sweet little farmer child
She got it in her blood to get a little wild
Pony tail and a pretty smile
Roped me in from a country mile
So come on over here and get in my arms
Spin me around this big ol' barn
Tangle me up like grandma's yarn
yeah yeah yeah
Shake it for the young bucks sittin' in the honky-tonks
For the rednecks rockin' 'till the break of dawn
For the DJ spinning that country song
c'mon c'mon c'mon
Shake it for the birds
Shake it for the bees
Shake it for the catfish swimming down deep in the creek
For the crickets
And the critters
And the squirrels
Shake it for the moon
Shake it for me girl
Country girl shake it for me
girl shake it for me
girl shake it for me
Country girl shake it for me
girl shake it for me
girl shake it for me
Now dance like a dandelion
In the wind, on the hill underneath the pines
Yeah move like the river flow
Feel the kick drum down deep in your toes
All I wanna do is get to holdin' you
And get to knowin' you
And get to showin' you
And get to lovin' you 'fore the night is through
Baby you know what to do!
Shake it for the young bucks sittin' in the honky-tonks
For the rednecks rockin' 'till the break of dawn
For the DJ spinning that country song
c'mon c'mon c'mon
Shake it for the birds
Shake it for the bees
Shake it for the catfish swimming down deep in the creek
For the crickets
And the critters
And the squirrels
Shake it for the moon
Shake it for me girl
Country girl shake it for me
Girl shake it for me
Girl shake it for me
Country girl shake it for me
Girl shake it for me
Girl shake it for me
