Dirt Road Diary

[Verse 1] Me and daddy'd ride around all day shooting doves off a line in a Chevrolet Old lab would jump out the back and fetch them up We would drive for miles and miles and never once hit blacktop or change the dial One little country station was all there was Checking gates, fixing fence and roads That is how my story goes [Chorus] If you want to know the real me, just turn the page in my dirt road diary It's right there for you to see Every kiss, every beer, every cotton field memory Tan legs and some Dixie Land delight Ridin' round, windows down on a summer night I was there, that was me It's right here in my dirt road diary [Verse 2] I remember when I turned sixteen; I got a license and some gasoline Ain't a curve or a straight away we didn't fly down If it wasn't the boys, it was me and her by fire in a field or down on the river Every inch of that county was sacred ground I wish I knew where that old truck was If it could talk, it could tell on us [Chorus] If you want to know the real me, just turn the page in my dirt road diary It's right there for you to see Every kiss, every beer, every cotton field memory Tan legs and some Dixie Land delight Ridin' round, windows down on a summer night I was there, that was me It's right here in my dirt road diary [Bridge] It ain't a book underneath my bed Just a dusty memory lane burned in my head [Chorus] Tan legs and some Dixie land delight Ridin' round, windows down, feelin' right I was there, that was me It's right here in my dirt road diary Just ride around my little town and you'll see how I wrote my dirt road diary
