Gravel Roads & Growing Old

Verse 1

We were drivin’ trucks on gravel roads,

Windows down, hearts wide open.

Every weekend had a fishin’ pole,

Livin’ life without even knowin’

How lucky two kids in love could be,

With your hand slid over and your smile on me.

Chorus

You were sittin’ in the middle, right next to me,

Bare feet on the dash and a radio dream.

Never thought that girl would end up my wife,

But here we are holdin’ on to this life.

And one day our boy will climb up in that seat,

I’ll show him how to drive just like my daddy taught me.

Yeah, gravel roads and growin’ old with you

Is all I’ll ever need.

Verse 2

We traded tailgate nights for a family home,

But that same ol’ truck still keeps rollin’ on.

Got a baby boy laughin’ in the yard,

And lovin’ you never felt so strong.

I glance your way and it’s clear to see—

The good Lord knew you were made for me.

Chorus

You were sittin’ in the middle, right next to me,

Bare feet on the dash and a radio dream.

Never thought that girl would end up my wife,

But here we are holdin’ on to this life.

And one day our boy will climb up in that seat,

I’ll show him how to drive just like my daddy taught me.

Yeah, gravel roads and growin’ old with you

Is all I’ll ever need.

Bridge

From that first kiss under a summer moon

To a lifetime of love comin’ way too soon,

Every mile we’ve been has led us here—

In your eyes, I see the years.

Final Chorus

You were sittin’ in the middle, right next to me,

Turned that old bench seat into our history.

Now you’re my wife, my world, my home,

And together, we ain’t ridin’ alone.

And when our boy slides over to that wheel,

He’ll know the love in this truck is real.

Yeah, gravel roads and growin’ old with you

Is all I’ll ever need.
