[Verse 1]
Dust on my truck bed
Salt on my boots
Worked all week
For a sky full of blue
Mama said, “Boy
Keep your feet on the ground”
So I learned how to breathe
When the world spun around
[Pre-Chorus]
And I’ve been broke
I’ve been bruised
Still I got this old road
And I got you
[Chorus]
Backroad gospel
Backroad gospel
Hold me up, let me go
Backroad gospel
(Backroad gospel)
(Backroad gospel)
[Verse 2]
County line diner
Fifteen on the clock
Coffee gone cold
But the stories don’t stop
Your hand in my hand
By the tailgate glow
We don’t need much
Just a place to go
[Pre-Chorus]
And I’ve been lost
And I’ve been found
With a little bit of faith
And a little front porch sound
[Chorus]
Backroad gospel
Backroad gospel
Hold me up, let me go
Backroad gospel
(Backroad gospel)
(Backroad gospel)
[Bridge]
When the rain comes hard
On a gravel lane
We laugh through the mud
We sing through the pain
No fancy words
No gold, no show
Just a cracked voice
And a fast-moving soul
[Final Chorus]
Backroad gospel
Backroad gospel
Hold me up, let me go
Backroad gospel
Backroad gospel
Backroad gospel
I was weary, now I know
Backroad gospel
(Backroad gospel)
(Backroad gospel)
