Me and daddy ride around all day
Shooting girls off the line
In a chevrolet old lab
Would jump out the back and fetch them up
We 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 rows
That's how my story goes
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 lakes and some dixieland delight
Riding round windows down on a summer night
I was there and that was me
It's right here in my dirt road diary
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 I was
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 dixieland delight
Riding round windows down on a summer night
I was there and that was me
It's right here in my dirt road
Diary it ain't a book underneath my bed
Just a dusty memory lane burned in my head
Tan legs and some dixieland delight
Riding round windows down
Feeling right I was there and that was me
It's right here in my dirt road diary
Just right around my little town
And you can see
How I wrote my dirt road diary
