Dirt Road Anthem Lyrics

Yeah, I'm chillin' on a dirt road
Laid back swervin' like I'm George Jones
Smoke rollin' out the window
An ice cold beer sittin' in the console
Memory lane up in the headlights
Has got me reminiscin' on them good times
I'm turning off of real life, drivin', that's right
I'm hittin' easy street on mud tires

Back in the day, Potts' farm was the place to go
Load the truck up, hit the dirt road
Jump the barbed wire, spread the word
Light the bonfire, then call the girls
King in the can and the Marlboro man
Jack and Jim were a few good men
Where you learn how to kiss and cuss and fight too
Better watch out for the boys in blue
And all this small town "he said, she said"
Ain't it funny how rumors spread?
Like, "I know something y'all don't know"
Man, that talk is gettin' old
You better mind your business, man, watch your mouth
Before I have to knock that loud mouth out
I'm tired of talking, man, y'all ain't listenin'
Them old dirt roads is what y'all missin'

Yeah, I'm chillin' on a dirt road
Laid back swervin' like I'm George Jones
Smoke rollin' out the window
An ice cold beer sittin' in the console
Memory lane up in the headlights
Has got me reminiscin' on them good times
I'm turning off of real life, drivin', that's right
I'm hittin' easy street on mud tires

I sit back and think about them good ol' days
The way we were raised and our southern ways
And we like cornbread and biscuits
And if it's broke 'round here, we fix it
I can take y'all where you need to go
Down to my hood, back in them woods
We do it different 'round here, that's right
But we sure do it good and we do it all night
So if you really wanna know how it feels
To get off the road with trucks and four wheels
Jump on in, and man, tell your friends
We'll raise some hell where the black top ends

I'm chillin' on a dirt road
Laid back swervin' like I'm George Jones
Smoke rollin' out the window
An ice cold beer sittin' in the console
Memory lane up in the headlights
Has got me reminiscin' on them good times
I'm turning off of real life, driving, that's right
I'm hittin' easy street on mud tires, that's right

Yeah, I'm chillin' on a dirt road
Laid back, swervin' like I'm George Jones
Smoke rollin' out the window
An ice cold beer sittin' in the console
Memory lane up in the headlights
Has got me reminiscin' on them good times
I'm turning off of real life, drivin', that's right
I'm hittin' easy street on mud tires, that's right
