Whiskey and a dirt road

(Verse 1)
Small town Friday, neon buzzin’ low
Boots on the bar rail, same old crowd I know
She walked in like a memory I tried to drown
Red lips, cutoff jeans, turnin’ heads around
I said, “Darlin’, you look like trouble in a Sunday dress”
She smiled and said, “Honey, you ain’t seen the best yet”
(Pre-Chorus)
We talked about nothin’ till the jukebox played our song
Two-steppin’ slow like we knew it all along
(Chorus)
It’s whiskey and a dirt road, ridin’ with the windows down
Tail lights fadin’ in the rearview, leavin’ this old town
Heartbreak in the bottle, freedom in the wheel
Chasin’ that high we swore we’d never feel
Yeah, we burn like diesel, fast and out of control
Just whiskey and a dirt road, savin’ my soul
(Verse 2)
Moonlight dancin’ on the hood of my old Ford
Radio singin’ ‘bout love we can’t afford
She whispered secrets only the stars could hear
Said, “Boy, tomorrow’s gonna hurt, but tonight we’re here”
We laughed at the ghosts ridin’ shotgun in my mind
Left ’em in the dust with the dust we left behind
(Pre-Chorus)
One more pull off the flask, one more mile to go
Where the pavement ends is where the real ones grow
(Chorus)
It’s whiskey and a dirt road, ridin’ with the windows down
Tail lights fadin’ in the rearview, leavin’ this old town
Heartbreak in the bottle, freedom in the wheel
Chasin’ that high we swore we’d never feel
Yeah, we burn like diesel, fast and out of control
Just whiskey and a dirt road, savin’ my soul
(Bridge)
Come mornin’ she’ll be gone like smoke in the wind
I’ll be nursin’ coffee and wonderin’ where I’ve been
But every scar she left is a story I won’t trade
For a straight-line life that never got made
’Cause some nights you gotta lose yourself to find
What it feels like to be alive one more time
(Final Chorus - bigger, with harmonies stacking)
It’s whiskey and a dirt road, prayin’ we don’t crash and burn
Learnin’ every lesson the hard way, takin’ every turn
Heartbreak in the bottle, but damn if it don’t heal
When you’re chasin’ forever behind the wheel
Yeah, we live like outlaws, wild and full of soul
Just whiskey and a dirt road… takin’ me home
(Outro - spoken/sung fade)
Yeah… pour one more, crank it up
Dirt road’s callin’… let’s run
