Back Roads lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Back Roads lyrics VERSE 1 The back roads of this county Cross like the laces on my boots And I?ve been running ?em down Since I was able to I left home at nineteen, Swore I was never coming back Nights like this I wish That?s where I was at CHORUS Slow pokin? down a blacktop, cutting tires on the white rock There?s a party on a dead end road We?re just hoping that the cops don?t show Somebody is looking for a fight It?s 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 ?em tell me, son don?t 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 song lyrics
