Butch Hancock - Dirt Road Song lyrics

This old dirt road is as hard as a paved one Tractors and trailers have sure packed it down There's deep ruts and big bumps From here to the city This dirt road is rough, but it sure gets around I can't hardly think of a worse way to wander Than walking down a dusty dirt road in the wind I can't tell you much more Than you know of hard travelin' But this dirt road is rough And I've said it again This old dirt road is a tough road to travel Somebody built it, but don't ask me who Don't ask me why they don't pave it with gravel It's just a dirt road, and we'll have to make do You've flown in your airplanes far over the oceans You've crossed the same waters As your sailing ships too But if you ain't been down A dirt road on your own feet There's little ground between me and you This old dirt road is a tough road to travel Somebody built it, but don't ask me who Don't ask me why they don't pave it with gravel It's just a dirt road, and we'll have to make do
