LUKE BRYAN

- Over The River Lyrics

There's a bonfire burnin'
Got Bocephus blarin' louder than allowed
Out in our neck of the neighborhood
If you wanna see follow me
Over the river and through the woods

When the bugs and the beer start bitin'
There's bound to be some friendly fightin'
Usually little Becky Lee winds up
Jumpin' up on somebody's hood, don't she dance good?
Join the crowd gathered 'round
Over the river and through the woods

Just follow my tail lights, out past the streetlights
Left then a hard right, they're goin' all night
We'll do a little what we want
After one long week of doin' what we should
Over the river and through the woods

At first I thought she was kiddin'
When she mentioned skinny dippin'
She said, follow me through the trees
Yes siree, unless I misunderstood
We'll splash and splish with the fish
Over the river and through the woods

That's my beer can next to her beer can
Next to my work pants up there on dry land
We'll do a little what we want
After one long week of doin' what we should
Over the river and through the woods

That's my sore head layin' in my truck bed
Eyes blood shot red, hearin' what my mama said
We did a little what we want
After one long week of doin' what we should
Over the river and through the woods
Yeah, over the river and through the woods

What is the meaning behind Over The River lyrics?


When we delve into what the artist truly meant to convey, the song "Over The River" by Luke Bryan illustrates a relaxed and adventurous night at a bonfire, where the narrator reminiscences about an escapade full of fun with friends, which included dancing, among other things, like skinny dipping and also the taking-off of daily life's responsibilities. The lyrics apply the metaphor of going 'over the river and through the woods' to depict the holding of one's daily activities, and absorption into wildness and entertainment, even if it means suffering the next day as a consequence. The river lyrics, to a large extent, highlighted partying, rejoicing, and nature along with the rest of the activities like adventure and joy. But simultaneously, the song emphasizes the themes of freedom and escapism, the youthful adventure and nostalgia and the companionship. The lyrics allude to alcohol consumption and introduce erotic scenarios, such as skinny dipping and light-hearted fighting, which may not be appropriate for very young kids. Nevertheless, the material is not too suggestive or graphic, thus a PG rating is justifiable.
