Back Roads Lyrics

All I know are the back roads

It's all I know

I was homegrown on a back road

But now I'm long gone

A shootin' star buildin' castles

And wishin' I was back home

On a back road

On those back roads

On a back road chillin'

Just vibin'

Not just in my own lane

I'm on my own island

I enjoy the silence

Of wind blowin' through the trees

Kids playin' on the swings

No sirens

Takin' off like a pilot

Spark the gas

Lightnin' bugs look vibrant

Flyin' in a glass

Grew up in a different climate

A lower class

Eighty-nine cents for gas

Who thought that wouldn't last

But now the car's electric

And look who we've elected

How can you respect it

And it's hard to forget it

Now let that sink in

As if I didn't see them sneak in

And peep them

Using secrets

To keep us sheeped in

But yo

All I know are the back roads

It's all I know

I was homegrown on a back road

But now I'm long gone

A shootin' star buildin' castles

And wishin' I was back home

On a back road

On those back roads

I think it's time we did some thinkin

Start bringin'

Friends together on the weekend

Stay up late singin' and sleepin

Not cause we was drinkin'

But do it all again

Tomorrow 3 pm

Might be a football game

Round here you know we Titan up

We used to drink from the hose

And catch lightning bugs

We grew up in the eighties

Ain't much frighten us

But on the highway of life

You gotta lighten up

All I know are the back roads

It's all I know

I was homegrown on a back road

But now I'm long gone

A shootin' star buildin' castles

And wishin' I was back home

On a back road

On those back roads

And wishin' I was back home

On those back roads
