Backroads of My Mind
Well, I never was one for trouble
But I reckon it was for me
When I was just a little boy
Pap put me on his knee
And he said, "Dear son, steer clearly
On the high road you should stay
'Cause down there in them valleys, boy
Them detour make ya stray"
He said, "Don't waste tomorrow on today's idle time
It's hard time living on the backroads of your mind"
On the backroads of my mind
Where the turns are mostly blind
Reckoning by wrote and memory
Well, they don't been deducted and lately you're in decline
It's hard time living on the backroads of my mind
Now the years flew by so swiftly
And I can't say they was kind
The old home and my family
I left it all behind
For a life of hopeful fortune
On the highways I did grow
But like so many dead-end roads
They left me all alone
I ain't ne'er been to Jackson
Where trouble's so easy to find
I mourned my fair share here on the backroads of my mind
On the backroads of my mind
Where the turns are mostly blind
Reckoning by wrote and memory
Well, they don't been deducted and lately you're in decline
It's hard time living on the backroads of my mind
On the backroads of my mind
Where the turns are mostly blind
Reckoning by wrote and memory
Well, they don't been deducted and lately you're in decline
It's hard time living on the backroads of my mind
Yes, it's hard time living on the backroads of my mind
But I reckon it was for me
When I was just a little boy
Pap put me on his knee
And he said, "Dear son, steer clearly
On the high road you should stay
'Cause down there in them valleys, boy
Them detour make ya stray"
He said, "Don't waste tomorrow on today's idle time
It's hard time living on the backroads of your mind"
On the backroads of my mind
Where the turns are mostly blind
Reckoning by wrote and memory
Well, they don't been deducted and lately you're in decline
It's hard time living on the backroads of my mind
Now the years flew by so swiftly
And I can't say they was kind
The old home and my family
I left it all behind
For a life of hopeful fortune
On the highways I did grow
But like so many dead-end roads
They left me all alone
I ain't ne'er been to Jackson
Where trouble's so easy to find
I mourned my fair share here on the backroads of my mind
On the backroads of my mind
Where the turns are mostly blind
Reckoning by wrote and memory
Well, they don't been deducted and lately you're in decline
It's hard time living on the backroads of my mind
On the backroads of my mind
Where the turns are mostly blind
Reckoning by wrote and memory
Well, they don't been deducted and lately you're in decline
It's hard time living on the backroads of my mind
Yes, it's hard time living on the backroads of my mind
