There's a road outside my window
been there two-hundred years
It's watched things go from wood and steel, to chrome and grindin' gears
It's never been paved over,
no one ever took the time
Thank god for its rough shoulders, 'cause they're a lot like mine
Chorus
Hey I'm just a one lane, miles from the interstate, plain old country road
Cut from the hills, hollers and the fields, that always call me home
This gravel in my veins, says I'm never gonna change, no matter how far I go,
I'm just a one lane, miles from the interstate, plain old country road
verse 2
I like to make my way through the meadow, i like to climb a distant hill
I like to wind down by a river, where the waters deep and still.
Chorus
Hey I'm just a one lane, miles from the interstate, plain old country road
Cut from the hills, hollers and the fields, that always call me home
This gravel in my veins, says I'm never gonna change, no matter how far I go,
I'm just a one lane, miles from the interstate, plain old country road
I'm just a one lane, miles from the interstate, plain old country road
Bridge
I can see a day not far away, when i wake up to the traffic jam
Underneath the signs and the flashing lights, i'll still be who i am
Chorus
Hey I'm just a one lane, miles from the interstate, plain old country road
Cut from the hills, hollers and the fields, that always call me home
This gravel in my veins, says I'm never gonna change, no matter how far I go,
I'm just a one lane, miles from the interstate, plain old country road
I'm just a one lane, miles from the interstate, plain old country road
