Backroad Bounce

Blacktop shining under Walmart white Dust on the dash from a long

back ride Cold drink sweating in the cup holder Her name still

living in the truck's odor Small town talk but I moved that

weight Not the bad kind,

just dreams on a plate Friday smoke and a county line turn

Money came slow but the fire still burned

We were running those roads with the radio on Tail lights fading

but the night stayed strong Love in the cab and tears in

the dust I still chase your name when the tires kick up

From a broke down town to a gold lit bar I got

scars, got songs, got a beat-up heart If freedom's a fire then

I'm still that spark Driving through the dark with your memory on

Now my name get a cheer when I step downtown Same old

boots but the checks came round Still got mud on the side

of the frame Still got pain that I hide with the fame

Late night text and a half-filled glass Her smile hit hard like

a memory pass I learned real quick how a heart can break

Then flip that hurt to a move I make

We were running those roads with the radio on Tail lights fading

but the night stayed strong Love in the cab and tears in

the dust I still chase your name when the tires kick up

From a broke down town to a gold lit bar I got

scars, got songs, got a beat-up heart If freedom's a fire then

I'm still that spark Driving through the dark with your memory on

Main street quiet, just a porch light glow

Your last goodbye still hits me slow

I got all this room and nowhere to go

So I sing to the wheels and the river below

We were running those roads with the radio on

Tail lights fading but the night stayed strong Love in the cab

and tears in the dust I still chase your name when the

tires kick up From a broke down town to a gold lit

bar I got scars,

got songs, got a beat-up heart If freedom's a fire then I'm

still that spark Driving through the dark with your memory on
