Behind me is the setting sun|Sometimes it takes four wheels to run|Sometimes you put those wheels in low|Because tonight we've gotta take the back roads||You can fish from a pier|Or from a boat|You can tell your buddies|A dirty joke|But if you wanna throw down|Like us folks|You'll need to take the back roads||If we wait long, it'll be too late|We've just got a choice to make|Are we drinkin' fast or sippin' slow|Because tonight we've gotta take the back roads||You can fish from a pier|Or from a boat|You can tell your buddies|A dirty joke|But if you wanna throw down|Like us folks|You'll need to take the back roads||You can fish from a pier|Or from a boat|You can tell your buddies|A dirty joke|But if you wanna throw down|Like us folks|You'll need to take the back roads||
