VERSE 1 The back roads of this county Cross like the laces on my boots And Iâve been running âem down Since I was able to I left home at nineteen, Swore I was never coming back Nights like this I wish Thatâs where I was at CHORUS Slow pokinâ down a blacktop, cutting tires on the white rock Thereâs a party on a dead end road Weâre just hoping that the cops donât show Somebody is looking for a fight Itâs gonna be that kind of night When I get too far from home I go find me a back road VERSE 2 I remember the summer, that I turned sixteen I made out with a girl, in the back of her hatchback Chevrolet And I drank my first beer, on the Louisiana state line My first night to see the other side CHORUS BRIDGE I heard âem tell me, son donât forget where you came from And I never have, and I still like to beat that drum From the river bottoms, to the tall pine trees It will forever be right here inside of me CHORUS |
