Take A Back Road

Lyrics

Sit in that six lane backed up traffic
 Horns are honking, I've about had it
 I'm looking for an exit sign
 Gotta get out of here, get it all off my mind
 Then like a memory from your grandpa's attic
 A song comes slippin' through the radio static
 Changing 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 a curve and wide a twistin'
 Dusty path to nowhere
 With the wind blowing 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 wanna take, makes me wanna
 Take a back road
 Some old back road
 ♪
 Maybe it's the feeling, 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 the 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 you 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
 ♪
 Now 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
 
 Sit in that six lane backed up traffic
 Horns are honking, I've about had it
 I'm looking for an exit sign
 Gotta get out of here, get it all off my mind
 Then like a memory from your grandpa's attic
 A song comes slippin' through the radio static
 Changing 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
