Taylor Austin Dye - Bible Belt (Official Music Video)

Written by: Taylor Austin Dye, Chris Utley, Nicole Croteau, Rob Pennington
Directed and Edited by: Randy Shaffer
Everybody's talkin'
Everybody's watchin'
The whole town's goin' straight to hell
Everybody's talkin'
Everybody's watchin'
Put another notch in the Bible Belt
Lipstick on a MAPCO coffee cup
Backseat, watchin' momma get all dolled up
Countin' change, sittin' at the pump
'Til the sun comes up she'll be handin' out love
Too young to stay by myself at home
Old enough to know what's goin' on
Sleepin' with somebody new
Just doin' what she's gotta do
And I hope that he's a nice man
That one day we can
Get out of these hills
Get off of these pills
And pay them bills with all our clothes on
And one day I won't feel wrong
Born into this fire
Don't wanna diе here
I just want someone to see me
No, I didn't choose my family
Everybody's talkin'
Everybody's watchin'
The whole town's goin' straight to hell
Everybody's talkin'
Everybody's watchin'
Put another notch in the Bible Belt
Mama kept her men written in a book
Sometimes I'd sit and thumb it through
See the mayor, my preacher, my teachers
At any hour of the night, they could reach her
Police came and tried to take me
But momma cried, she'd need her baby
It's like Heaven's door is shut, it's so corrupt
Are prayer's enough?
To get out of these hills
Get off of these pills
And pay them bills with all our clothes on
And one day I won't feel wrong
Born into this fire
Don't wanna die here
I just want someone to see me
No, I didn't choose my family
Everybody's talkin'
Everybody's watchin'
The whole town's goin' straight to hell
Everybody's talkin'
Everybody's watchin'
Put another notch in the Bible Belt
Pine tree prison
Single wide cell
If God's still listenin'
I'm prayin' like hell we
Get out of these hills
Get off of these pills
And pay them bills with all our clothes on
And one day I won't feel wrong
Born into this fire
Don't wanna die here
I just want someone to see me
No, I didn't choose my family
Everybody's talkin'
Everybody's watchin'
The whole town's goin' straight to hell
Everybody's talkin'
Everybody's watchin'
Put another notch in the Bible Belt
Everybody's talkin'
Everybody's watchin'
The whole town's goin' straight to hell
Everybody's talkin'
Everybody's watchin'
Put another notch in the Bible Belt
Everybody's talkin'
Everybody's watchin'
The whole town's goin' straight to hell
Everybody's talkin'
Everybody's watchin'
Put another notch in the Bible Belt
Bible Belt (ooh)

[@pamelahornick8108]

Yep. I grew up in the Bible belt and the "Christian" church folk would sit around and gossip about the woman who sold herself to feed her children and her addiction but they sure as hell didn't help her.

[@brookenewsomCavalierBreeder]

😢

[@danielpiller607]

that's sad. actions speak louder than words

[@fahrenheitranch4717]

thank you for writing songs that are not about whiskey, trucks or fishing. country music has been stagnating for almost 20 years, and songs about real life, such as this one, will save it

[@dogsbettathanhumans]

THANKS MATE. LOVE ME COUNTRY MUSIC. JUST SEEN YOU SAID WHAT I WAS THINKING. WE HAVE SOME GREAT MUSIC HERE IN AUS, SADLY SOME DONT HAVE A STORY,

[@robtyriw8905]

Anyone notice that Jay Michael Adams was in the notebook , same guy from “ Rest in Peace “

The song writer needs to be nominated for an award. This is a well written song. The artist did a good job singing it as well.

Not really a country fan, but I love the storyline and this song so much. I hope it gets the recognition it deserves!!!!

[@averiwatkins8163]

My mom was addicted to pills. She brought random men around me constantly. I always wondered "why me?" I never thought I'd survive, I felt alone. But here I am, with 4 beautiful children of my own. This song speaks to me on another level.

[@larissablevins210]

Proud of you for breaking the cycle!!

[@cashtonbriggs2135]

Our life's tragedies make us who we are. Some are able to turn those tragedies into successes. It takes strength to do that. You should be proud of yourself...we are.

[@marcelgorskin7327]

not outside the states. Country doesnt get the respect it deserves. i mean i live in germany, i know it. Feels like im the only non american who knows what country really is.

[@America_is_Amazing]

I can relate to this song because my mama used to work a lot and i was around drugs a lot and she did them to. We moved around a lot to and my family is droken to and i tell myself that i didn't ask for the family and messed up childhood with the drugs, mmoving around, and my friends dying and getting killed, or my daddy getting arrested, and my little brother getting hurt when my mama was at work by her past bf that i saw as a second and me having to hear my brother getting hurt and also living in a bad neighborhood. Right now im only 16 and that happened to me when i was younger.
