Horns a honkin, I've about had it
I'm lookin for an exit sign
Gotta get outta here, get it all off my mind
And like a memory from your grandpa's attic
A song comes slippin through the radio static
Changin my mood
A little George Strait 1982
And it makes me wanna take a back road
Makes me wanna take the long way home
Put a little gravel in my travel
Unwind, unravel all night long
Makes me wanna grab my honey
Tear down some two lane country
Who knows
Get lost and get right with my soul
Makes me wanna take, makes me wanna take a back road
I've been cooped up, tied down
'Bout forgotten what a field looks like full of corn and cotton
If I'm gonna hit a traffic jam
Well it better be a tractor man
So sick and tired of this interstate system
I need the curvin, windin, twistin dusty path to nowhere
With the wind blowin through my baby's hair
Yeah it makes me wanna take a back road
Makes me wanna take the long way home
Put a little gravel in my travel
Unwind, unravel all night long
Makes me wanna grab my honey
Tear down some two lane country
Who knows
Get lost and get right with my soul
Makes me wanna take, makes me wanna take a back road
Some old back road
Maybe it's the feelin
Or maybe it's the freedom
Maybe it's that shady spot where we park the truck when things get hot
Girl we park the truck when things get hot
And it makes me wanna take a back road
Makes me wanna take the long way home
Put a little gravel in my travel
Unwind, unravel all night long
Makes me wanna grab your honey
Tear down some two lane country
Who knows
Get lost and get right with my soul
Makes me wanna take, makes me wanna take a back road
Some old back road
Get right with my soul
All I gotta do is take some old back road
To the shady spot where things get hot girl
Way down, way down, way down some old back road
Sittin in six lane backed up traffic Horns a honkin, I've about had it I'm lookin for an exit sign Gotta get outta here, get it all off my mind And like a memory from your grandpa's attic A song comes slippin through the radio static Changin my mood A little George Strait 1982 And it makes me wanna take a back road Makes me wanna take the long way home Put a little gravel in my travel Unwind, unravel all night long Makes me wanna grab my honey Tear down some two lane country Who knows Get lost and get right with my soul Makes me wanna take, makes me wanna take a back road I've been cooped up, tied down 'Bout forgotten what a field looks like full of corn and cotton If I'm gonna hit a traffic jam Well it better be a tractor man So sick and tired of this interstate system I need the curvin, windin, twistin dusty path to nowhere With the wind blowin through my baby's hair Yeah it makes me wanna take a back road Makes me wanna take the long way home Put a little gravel in my travel Unwind, unravel all night long Makes me wanna grab my honey Tear down some two lane country Who knows Get lost and get right with my soul Makes me wanna take, makes me wanna take a back road Some old back road Maybe it's the feelin Or maybe it's the freedom Maybe it's that shady spot where we park the truck when things get hot Girl we park the truck when things get hot And it makes me wanna take a back road Makes me wanna take the long way home Put a little gravel in my travel Unwind, unravel all night long Makes me wanna grab your honey Tear down some two lane country Who knows Get lost and get right with my soul Makes me wanna take, makes me wanna take a back road Some old back road Get right with my soul All I gotta do is take some old back road To the shady spot where things get hot girl Way down, way down, way down some old back road Explain Request ×
