The Petersens - Down That Dirt Road Lyrics

Skipping rocks and jumping off
That bridge down by the creek
I still feel the damp of that tall grass
Underneath my bare feet
And across the yard, a big red barn
Ever etched there in my mind
Toss me the keys to that old truck
That taught me how to drive
Down that dirt road
There's a little piece of home
That'll always be waiting no matter where I go
Some things are bound to change but some things don't
Down that dirt road
As I grew, my dreams did, too
Of a bigger life to see
Out there beyond this little pond
That was now too small for me
So I pulled away my roots and gave the city life my hand
But at night I lay awake and dream about where I began
Down that dirt road
There's a little piece of home
That'll always be waiting no matter where I go
Some things are bound to change but some things don't
Down that dirt road
I thought the grass would be greener over on the other side
But the greenest grass I've ever seen beneath the bluest sky was
Down that dirt road there's a little piece of home
That'll always be waiting no matter where I go
So I'm going
Down that dirt road to my little piece of home
It's always been waiting no matter where I go
Some things are bound to change but some things don't
I've never been more ready to be home
Than down that dirt road
