lyrics

It was a dirt road in the country
Through the cornfield behind the farm
I grew up back there
And I learned to care, I learned to hold my own
There was a pond back there where I learned to swim
And I learned about a fishing pole
I met a girl back there and I learned to swear
And I swear she was the only one
So take me back home, back to the place that I use to roam
Back to see my old friends and back to see the old dirt road
Well down that dirt road there's a cross road
That's where I learned to play guitar it was our meeting point
That’s where I smoked my first joint that's where I drove my first car
It was my first cigarette, it was the place that you left me
That's where you first broke my heart it was the back road to town
It's how I'd get around and you know I like to get around
Yah take me back home, back to the place that I use to roam
Back to see my old friends and back to see the old dirt road
(Mandolin solo)
Well now that dirt road it’s a highway it rolls right through the farm
There's no more pond back there, there's no more friends back there
It's just a whole lotta cars it still the back road to town
It's still how I get around but it just don’t hold a piece of my heart
Like that old dirt road did when I was a kid
Yah you know I love that old dirt road
Take me back home, back to the place that I use to roam
Back to see my old friends and back to see the old dirt road
Ya take me back home, back to the place that I use to roam
Back to see my old friends and back to see the old dirt road
Take me back home, back to the place that I use to roam
Back to see my old friends and back to see the old dirt road
Take me back home, back to the place that I use to roam
Back to see my old friends and back to see the old dirt road
