“‘The Great Salt Lake’ isn’t about the Great Salt Lake at all, it’s about Lake Murray. A lot of the imagery is about South Carolina, combined with some incidents we heard about from some hilarious fuck-ups we knew from Salt Lake City.” -Ben Bridwell
The Great Salt Lake Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Back of the boat was painted "Wrecking Ball"
There was country music playing
But he don't like it at all
And red fire popping on the rained-down wood
There was whiskey bottle spilling
And a lake that's made of salt
Look out back, well there's a note on the door
Saying, "Everybody listen, we'll be the next Omaha"
[Chorus]
Now if you find yourself falling apart
Then I'm sure I could stand on
The Great Salt Lake
[Chorus]
Falling apart
And I'm sure I could stand on
The Great Salt Lake
[Verse 2]
Your old man was but a wishing machine
It's time that you could spend
Now he's getting old
When Billy Lorett had found a watering hole
It's a place to lay south or the heads of coyote
[Chorus]
Now if you find yourself falling apart
Well I'm sure
I could stand on
The Great Salt Lake
[Bridge]
Follow me home
We want more
Follow me home
We all want more
If ever beat down
We know who we are
They know we all want more, oh-oh
If ever beat down
We know who we are
They know we all want more
Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
