Backroads and memory

*(Verse 1)*

I was born in a small town, dirt roads and open skies,

Mama’s Sunday dinners and a young boy’s cries,

Old pickup truck, worn and true,

Carryin’ my dreams and the life I knew.

*(Chorus)*

Backroads and memories, they’re runnin’ through my mind,

Sweet tea on a summer night, toes in the mud, feelin’ fine,

Love from a porch swing, and a starry sky so free,

Backroads and memories, they’re everything to me.

*(Verse 2)*

Sittin’ by the fire, stories we’d tell,

Of high school romances and wishin’ on a wishing well,

Time moves on, but I still recall,

The simple life, and it’s the best of all.

*(Chorus)*

Backroads and memories, they’re runnin’ through my mind,

Sweet tea on a summer night, toes in the mud, feelin’ fine,

Love from a porch swing, and a starry sky so free,

Backroads and memories, they’re everything to me.

*(Bridge)*

One day I’ll head back, to where my heart belongs,

With open arms and a country song,

Forever bound to the roots I’ve grown,
