Lyrics

[00:14.20] I was raised off of old Route 3
[00:17.57] Out past where the blacktop ends
[00:19.38]
[00:21.57] We'd walked to church on Sunday morning
[00:23.62]
[00:24.62] Race barefoot back to the Johnson's fence
[00:27.06]
[00:29.75] That's where I first saw Mary
[00:31.43]
[00:32.68] On that roadside pickin' blackberries
[00:34.31]
[00:36.36] That summer I turned a corner in my soul
[00:39.73]
[00:40.48] Down that red dirt road
[00:42.24]
[00:43.91] It's where I drank my first beer
[00:45.85]
[00:46.72] It's where I found Jesus
[00:48.84]
[00:50.91] Where I wrecked my first car
[00:53.15] I tore it all to pieces
[00:55.09]
[00:57.95] I learned the path to heaven is full of
[01:01.26] sinners and believers
[01:02.51]
[01:04.38] Learned that happiness on earth
[01:06.07]
[01:07.01] ain't just for high achievers
[01:09.37]
[01:10.56] I've learned I've come to know
[01:13.87] There's life at both ends
[01:16.74] Of that red dirt road
[01:18.24]
[01:24.97] Her daddy didn't like me much
[01:26.72]
[01:28.09] With my shackled up GTO
[01:29.90]
[01:31.97] I'd sneak out in the middle of the night
[01:35.32] Throw rocks at her bedroom window
[01:36.87]
[01:40.93] We'd turn out the headlights
[01:42.31]
[01:44.30] Drive by the moonlight
[01:45.43]
[01:46.80] Talk about what the future might hold
[01:49.67]
[01:51.04] Down a red dirt road
[01:53.04]
[01:54.72] It's where I drank my first beer
[01:57.30]
[01:58.05] It's where I found Jesus
[01:59.42]
[02:01.48] Where I wrecked my first car
[02:03.73] I tore it all to pieces
[02:05.54]
[02:08.71] I learned the path to heaven is full of
[02:11.80] sinners and believers
[02:12.66]
[02:14.97] Learned that happiness on earth
[02:16.72]
[02:17.61] ain't just for high achievers
[02:19.23]
[02:21.10] I've learned I've come to know
[02:23.29]
[02:24.22] There's life at both ends
[02:26.22]
[02:27.09] Of that red dirt road
[02:28.53]
[02:42.45] I went out into the world, and I came back in
[02:47.32]
[02:49.50] I lost Mary, oh I got her back again
[02:54.49]
[02:57.11] And driving home tonight feels like
[02:59.70] I've found a long lost friend
[03:02.03]
[03:06.77] It's where I drank my first beer
[03:08.77]
[03:10.39] It's where I found Jesus
[03:11.76]
[03:13.82] Where I wrecked my first car
[03:16.00] I tore it all to pieces
[03:17.84]
[03:20.22] I learned the path to heaven is full of
[03:24.29] sinners and believers
[03:25.47]
[03:27.28] Learned that happiness on earth
[03:28.78]
[03:29.90] ain't just for high achievers
[03:31.65]
[03:33.46] I've learned I've come to know
[03:35.83]
[03:36.58] There's life at both ends
[03:38.20]
[03:39.39] Of that red dirt road
[03:40.89]
[03:47.03] I've learned I've come to know
[03:49.72]
[03:50.59] There's life at both ends
[03:53.71] Of that red dirt road
