Story Behind The Song
Growing up in South Georgia the cheap beer lived accross the line in Florida. Yulee is the first exit one comes to on I-95 and had a huge Jax liquor store at the exit. We made too many trips there. It's a miracle we survived.

Lyrics
Going down to Yulee for a cheap 12-pack
Excuse for a road trip you and me in the back
Our friends all know what such a day will bring
Off we go not worried ?bout a thing
Let?s hit the road now
Cheap thrills waiting across the line
Get in the car y?all
It isn?t far; won?t take much time
Pulling up to Jax with the Clash playing loud
Wielding fake ID?s and feeling mighty proud
The cheaper the better that?s what we say
Gimme that cheap stuff ? there ain?t no other way
Let?s hit the road now
Cheap thrills waiting across the line
Get in the car y?all
It isn?t far; won?t take much time
Cruisin back to town with a big buzz on
Police on the radio but not behind our car
It?s a wonder that we ever made it home alive
Stupid teenagers just shouldn?t drive!
