Lyrics
Title: “Dirt Road Revival”
Verse 1
There’s a dent in the hood of my old Ford truck
From the night we swore it was just us
Backed up to that water tower
Kissed for half a summer hour
You said, “Don’t you ever let me go”
I said, “Girl, you already know”
Funny how forever sounds
Different when it’s breaking down
Pre-Chorus
Now the neon buzzes in this bar downtown
But it ain’t your laugh I’m hearing now
Chorus
I’d trade every mile of this highway
Every whiskey sunrise I’ve known
For one more night on that tailgate
With your head on my shoulder bone
We were fireflies in a mason jar
Burning bright but never far
From believing love could save our souls
On that nowhere, nowhere dirt road
Verse 2
Your mama never did like me
Said I lived too wild and free
But you’d sneak out past the porch light glow
Barefoot dancing in the glow
Radio humming low and sweet
Heartbeats keeping time with the beat
We didn’t have a dime to spend
But we had a world that didn’t end
Pre-Chorus
Now there’s a picture in my wallet torn
Edges faded, corners worn
Chorus
I’d trade every mile of this highway
Every whiskey sunrise I’ve known
For one more night on that tailgate
With your head on my shoulder bone
We were fireflies in a mason jar
Burning bright but never far
From believing love could save our souls
On that nowhere, nowhere dirt road
Bridge
If I could turn this truck around
I’d chase your ghost from town to town
But time don’t roll in reverse
And pride just makes it worse
So I let the gravel sing your name
Every time it hits the frame
Final Chorus (Lifted)
Yeah I’d trade every mile of this highway
Every lonely barstool throne
For one more night on that tailgate
Before the wild wind blew you home
We were lightning in a southern storm
Young and reckless, hearts wide torn
Still believing love could save our souls
On that nowhere, nowhere dirt road
Outro
Yeah that nowhere, nowhere dirt road
Still leads me back to you somehow.
