Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

 The back roads of this county

 Cross like the laces on my boots

 And I’ve been running ‘em down

 Since I was able to

 I left home at nineteen,

 And swore I was never coming back

 Nights like this I sure wish

 That’s where I was at.

Chorus

Slow pokin’ down a blacktop, cuttin’ tires on the white rock

 There’s a party on a dead end road

 We’re just hopin’ that the cops don’t show

 Somebody is looking for a fight

 It’s gonna be that kind of night

 When I get too far from home

 I go find me a back road.

Verse 2

 I remember the summer, I turned sixteen

 I made out with a girl in the back of her hatchback Chevrolet

 And I drank my first beer, on the Louisiana state line

 My first night to see the other side

Chorus

Verse 3

I heard ‘em tell me, son don’t forget where you come from

And I never have, and I still like to beat that drum

From the river bottoms, to the tall pine trees

It will be forever right here inside of me

Chorus

Slow pokin’ down a blacktop, cuttin’ tires on the white rock

There’s a party on a dead end road

We’re just hopin’ that the cops don’t show

Somebody is looking for a fight

It’s gonna be that kind of night

When I get too far from home

I go find me a back road.
