Back Roads

Have you ever seen the sunset in Louisiana?
Sun so low you can see the shadow of a two inch cypress knee
Had a buddy of mine move down here from Indiana
«What made you move?» He said, «All this good food and the hospitality»
If you wanna live by me, a few things you gonna need
A couple of cold beers for me and my friends
Get pretty thirsty after reelin' them in
Good ol' bonfire to warm you up
After huntin' a 12-point buck
Need a back road in the middle of nowhere
Make this girl say, «How the hell did we get here?»
If you wanna know what’s good for a country boy’s soul
Couple of cold beers, a bonfire, and a back road
I took my lady for a joyride on the levee
She had a bottle of wine singin' Patsy Cline, lookin' pretty as she could be
Got the nerve to ask her if we could start goin' steady
She had her feet on my dash singin' Johnny Cash when she smiled and said to me
If you wanna be with me, a few things you gonna need
A couple of cold beers for me and my friends
Get pretty thirsty after reelin' them in
Good ol' bonfire to warm you up
After huntin' a 12-point buck
Need a back road in the middle of nowhere
Make this girl say, «How the hell did we get here?»
If you wanna know what’s good for a country boy’s soul
Couple of cold beers, a bonfire, and a back road
It’s a simple life down here
Grab a cane pole, come and join us on this peer
And bring a couple of cold beers for me and my friends
We get pretty thirsty after reelin' them in
Good ol' bonfire to warm us up
After huntin' a 12-point buck
Need a back road in the middle of nowhere
Make the girls say, «How the hell did we get here?»
If you wanna know what’s good for a country boy’s soul
Couple of cold beers, a bonfire, and a back road
(Back road, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Oh yeah a back road
(Back road, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Won’t you take me on a back road
(To the back road, oh, oh, oh, oh)
I said a back road
(Back road, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Oh won’t you take me on a back road
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
