Dirt Road to Heaven

And it ain't just dirt roads It ain't just ice cold beer on a Friday It ain't just gettin' sideways I hear 'em singin' on the radio Broken record 'bout a dusty road An ice cold beer, a pretty girl ridin' shotgun I ain't sayin' that those things ain't nice But come on now, there's more to life So tell me a story, 'cause everybody's got one I know there's more to this It ain't just rhymin' words with music Sing me somethin' from your heart 'Cause it ain't just dirt roads It ain't just ice cold beer on a Friday It ain't just gettin' sideways And it ain't just pickup trucks It ain't just stirrup dust It ain't just whitetail bucks Or just another song about gettin' drunk It's about guts and glory Cowboy, what's your story? I grew up on a mountainside The Tennessee-Kentucky line Just a preacher's boy, and mama was a teacher Started singin' on Sundays But playin' ball was my dream to get paid Had a couple scouts sittin' out in the bleachers That dream, yeah, it ended But that was only the beginnin' Of these songs that I sing from the heart And it ain't just dirt roads It ain't just ice cold beer on a Friday It ain't just gettin' sideways It ain't just pickup trucks It ain't just stirrup dust It ain't just whitetail bucks Or just another song about gettin' drunk It's about guts and glory Cowboy... I know I still, I got a lot to learn But here's a couple things I'll say when it's my turn That it ain't just dirt roads It ain't just ice cold beer on a Friday It ain't just gettin' sideways And it ain't just pickup trucks It ain't just stirrup dust It ain't just whitetail bucks Or just another song about gettin' drunk It's about guts and glory Yeah, it's about guts and glory Cowboy, what's your story?
