Karaoké Take a Back Road Rodney Atkins

Sit in that six-lane backed up traffic

Horns are honkin'

I've about had it

I'm lookin' for an exit sign

Gotta get out of here

Get it all off my mind

Then like a memory from your grandpa's attic

A song comes slippin' through the radio static

Changin' my mood

A little George Strait

Nineteen eighty-two

And it makes me wanna take a back road

Makes me wanna take the long way home

Put a little gravel in my travel

Unwind, unravel all night long

Makes me wanna grab my honey

Tear down some two-lane country

Who knows

Get lost and get right with my soul

Makes me wanna take

Makes me wanna take a back road

I've been cooped up

Tied down, 'bout forgotten what a field looks like

Full of corn and cotton

If I'm gonna hit a traffic jam well it better be a tractor man

So sick and tired of this interstate system

I need a curve and wind-a-twistin'

Dusty path to nowhere

With the wind blowin' through my baby's hair

Yeah makes me wanna take a back road

Makes me wanna take the long way home

Put a little gravel in my travel

Unwind, unravel all night long

Makes me wanna grab my honey

Tear down some two-lane country

Who knows

Get lost and get right with my soul

Makes me wanna take

Makes me wanna take a back road

Some old back road

Maybe it's the feelin' or maybe it's the freedom

Maybe it's that shady spot where we park the truck when things get hot

Girl we park the truck when things get hot

And it makes me wanna take a back road

Makes me wanna take the long way home

Put a little gravel in my travel

Unwind, unravel all night long

Makes me wanna grab you honey

Tear down some two-lane country

Who knows

Get lost and get right with my soul

Makes me wanna take

Makes me wanna take a back road

Some old back road

Get right with my soul

Now all I gotta do is take some old back road

To the shady spot where things get hot girl

Way down

Way down

Way down some old back road
