Rhett Akins – Old Dirt Road

(Chris Gantry/Rhett Akins)

(Track 3 – Time 3:26)

There’s an old dirt road off of 33

Lord it’s been so long since it’s seen me

But I’ve put many a mile across it’s back

I used to kick up dust in the summertime

Runnin’ the Georgia-Florida line

A teenage runaway train jumpin’ of the track

Had the windows rolled down, beer cans flyin’

Bocephus on the knob and a coon-dog cryin’

Now those days are gone in my rear-view

Lord all the scenes have changed

And the roads are all brand new

When my homesick heart gets the best of me

I hit that old dirt road off of 33

I was running with a bunch of friends of mine

Nothin’ to do but shoot old stop signs

Half the time with the law got hot on our heels

Well we get cleaned up and go lookin’ around

For a carload of girls to follow us down

To a run-down cabin and a party back in the fields

Oh God bless mama she never had a clue

But I got a feelin’ that my daddy knew

Now those days are gone in my rear-view

Lord all the scenes have changed

And the roads are all brand new

When my homesick heart gets the best of me

I hit that old dirt road off of 33

Now those days are gone in my rear-view

Lord all the scenes have changed

And the roads are all brand new

When my homesick heart gets the best of me

I hit that old dirt road off of 33

I hit that old dirt road off of 33
