When I’m all torn up, stressed out, the whole world stretching me thin.
I reach for my daddy’s old records, take one out for a midnight spin.
“Hello Darlin” and Your Cheatin’ Heart, have a healing power you can't ignore.
It goes without saying, preaching or praying, they don't write them like that anymore.
The way back country sound never seems to grow old.
I love way back country tales of a simple life moving slow.
Riding shotgun in my grandpa's truck, tearing down gravel roads.
Only the way back country speaks to this country boy's soul.
Some days I Feel so Lonesome I could cry all day
I Keep humming that old line in “He Stopped Lovin’ Her Today”
Put the top down in my old Bel Air, I’m the king of the road
Right through that Ring of Fire, across the cumberland plateau
The way back country sound never seems to grow old.
I love way back country tales of a simple life moving slow.
Riding shotgun in my grandpa's truck, tearing down gravel roads.
Only the way back country speaks to this country boy's soul.
Solo
Breakdown
The way back country sound never seems to grow old.
I love way back country tales of a simple life moving slow.
Kick in:
Riding shotgun in my grandpa's truck, tearing down gravel roads.
Only the way back country speaks to this country boy's soul.
