In this anthem of escapism, Sean Stemaly taps into the yearning for simplicity and freedom that resonates with many. The lyrics depict a desire to break away from the constraints and chaos of modern life, symbolized by traffic and city living. By returning to a backroad, the protagonist seeks solace in the familiar comfort of rural landscapes and a slower pace of life. The song glorifies traditional values and pastoral settings, using imagery like dirt roads, Chevy trucks, and country music icon Johnny Cash as symbols of authenticity and grounding. Ultimately, "Back On A Backroad" is an ode to finding peace and clarity by reconnecting with one's roots and escaping the relentless speed of contemporary existence.
Back On A Backroad
Lyrics
This world comes at you like a fastball
It's all traffic backed up on some asphalt
And I'm a good ol' boy in a truck
Caught goin' five after five o'clock
Just sittin' here cussin', comin' undone
Missin' that small town settin' sun
I need to saddle on up, let the horses run
All over some little map dot
I gotta get back on a back, back on a backroad
Hit the gas, get the glass packs leavin' black smoke
With some Cash cuttin' through the static in my soul
Washed tinted windows down high
Put this two tone, two ton, too clean Chevy to work
Yeah, put a little dirt into this tread
Trade everywhere to be for nowhere to go
Back on a back, back on a backroad
Maybe stop, pop a top at the county line
Try to spot me a fence line drop tine
Get to makin' my way to that way of life
Y'all it's about damn time
I get back on a back, back on a backroad
Hit the gas, get the glass packs leavin' black smoke
With some Cash cuttin' through the static in my soul
Washed windows down high
Put this two tone, two ton, too clean Chevy to work
Yeah, put a little dirt into this tread
Trade everywhere to be for nowhere to go
Back on a back, back on a backroad
Anywhere but where I'm at level, hit the gas pedal and fly
Make a dust devil, let the dust settle
And drive 'til the headlights light up a pine tree skyline
Wound up and I need to unwind
Back on a back, back on a backroad
Hit the gas, get the glass packs leavin' black smoke
With some Cash cuttin' through the static in my soul
Washed tinted windows down high
Put this two tone, two ton, too clean Chevy to work
Yeah, put a little dirt into this tread
Trade everywhere to be for nowhere to go
Back on a back, back on a backroad, yeah
Oh, back on a back, back on a backroad, whoa
Back on a back, back on a backroad
