Backroad Memories

Got a tank full of gas and a hand in mine,

Rollin’ down a dirt road, killin’ some time.

Sky painted gold as the sun dips low,

Radio hummin’ that old George Jones.

Bare feet hangin’ out the passenger side,

Laughin’ like crazy, no worries tonight.

Wind in your hair, moon in your eyes,

Got me thinkin’ ‘bout forever in this summer night.

(Chorus)

Take me back where the fireflies dance,

Where the world slows down and we take our chance.

Small-town hearts beat wild and free,

On a backroad makin’ memories.

Oh-oh, let’s chase that dream,

Just you and me where the river runs clean.

No place to be, just ridin’ with ease,

On a backroad makin’ memories.

(Verse 2)

Dust in the rearview, stars overhead,

Sippin’ on something, no words left unsaid.

You lean on my shoulder, hummin’ along,

To a love story written in a country song.

Ain’t about the miles, it’s the way we feel,

Every little moment, yeah, it’s all so real.

No city lights, just a southern breeze,

A life worth livin’ in nights like these.

(Chorus)

Take me back where the fireflies dance,

Where the world slows down and we take our chance.

Small-town hearts beat wild and free,

On a backroad makin’ memories.

Oh-oh, let’s chase that dream,

Just you and me where the river runs clean.

No place to be, just ridin’ with ease,

On a backroad makin’ memories.

(Bridge)

Someday we’ll look back, smile at the past,

Knowin’ these moments were made to last.

No matter how far, no matter how old,

This dirt road love is paved in gold.

(Outro)

So take my hand, let’s take that ride,

Chasin’ the stars in the southern sky.

No place to be, just ridin’ with ease,

On a backroad makin’ memories.
