Lyrics

Yeah I'm chillin' on a dirt road.

Expressing a relaxed state while being on a rural road.

Laid back swervin' like I'm George Jones

Driving casually, drawing a comparison to the country music legend George Jones.

Smoke rollin' out the window

Indicating the presence of smoke, possibly from a cigarette or another source.

An ice cold beer sittin' in the console.

Describing the setting with a cold beer in the car's console.

Memory Lane up in the headlights.

Reflecting on past experiences illuminated by headlights on Memory Lane.

Got me reminiscing on the good times

Nostalgically recalling good times.

Said I'm turnin' off the real life drive and that's right

Turning away from the pressures of real life and enjoying an easy drive.

Hittin' easy street on mud tires

Driving comfortably on mud tires along an easy street.

Back in the day Potts' farm was the place to go

Recalling activities on Potts' farm, emphasizing rebellious and adventurous behavior.

Load the truck up hit the dirt road

-

Jump the barbwire, spread the word

-

Light the bonfire, then call the girls

-

King in the can, and the Marlboro man

-

Jack and Jim were a few good men

-

We learned how to kiss and cuss and fight too

-

Better watch out for the boys in blue

-

And all this small town he said she said

Commenting on small-town gossip and the spread of rumors.

It ain't as funny how rumors spread

-

Like I know somethin' y'all don't know

Expressing frustration with rumors and gossip becoming tiresome.

Man this shit is gettin' old

-

Man mind your business watch your mouth

Advising others to mind their own business to avoid conflict.

Before I have to knock your loud ass out

-

No time for talkin' y'all ain't listenin'

Dismissing the importance of talking and highlighting the value of old dirt roads.

Them old dirt road is what y'all missing

-

Yeah I'm chillin' on a dirt road.

Repeating the theme of enjoying a relaxed drive on a dirt road with specific details.

Laid back swervin' like I'm George Jones

-

Smoke rollin' out the window

-

An ice cold beer sittin' in the console.

-

Memory Lane up in the headlights.

-

Got me reminiscing on the good times

-

Said I'm turnin' off the real life drive and that's right

-

Hittin' easy street on mud tires

-

I sit back and think about them good ol' days

Reflecting on the speaker's upbringing in the South, emphasizing regional identity and lifestyle.

The way we were raised and our southern ways

-

We like corn bread and biscuits

-

And if its broke round here we fix it

-

See I can take y'all where you need to go

-

Down to my hood or back in them woods

-

We do it different round here thats right

-

But we sure do it good and we do it all night

-

So if you really wanna know how it feels

-

To get off the road and truck with four wheels

-

Jump on in tell ya friends

Inviting others to join in the carefree activities at the end of the paved road.

That well be raisin hell where the black top ends

-

Yeah I'm chillin' on a dirt road.

Reiterating the enjoyment of a dirt road drive with a focus on the liberating feeling.

Laid back swervin' like I'm George Jones

-

Smoke rollin' out the window

-

An ice cold beer sittin' in the console.

-

Memory Lane up in the headlights.

-

Got me reminiscing on the good times

-

Said I'm turnin' off the real life drive and that's right

-

Hittin' easy street on mud tires

-

I was brought up in a small town in North Georgia

Sharing personal values and life lessons learned, emphasizing resilience and self-reliance.

Raised on southern baptist morals

-

In a front row pew for the Sunday roll call

-

Now everybody praise the lord

-

I grew up learned how to hunt and fish

-

Bust a 12 gauge pump and not miss

-

A life without work that's just a myth

-

Never listen when they talkin' shit

-

My dad taught me how to stand my ground

-

Be a man boy and never back down

-

Don't start up something but if he's talking trash

-

You better throw the first punch and whip his ass

-

Now be somebody, make a name for yourself

-

Life is hard, you go through hell

-

There comes a time when you've got to slow down

Acknowledging the need to slow down and enjoy life amidst challenges.

That's what we doing lets go

-

Yeah I'm chillin' on a dirt road.

Concluding with a repetition of the theme, underscoring the speaker's choice of a laid-back, country lifestyle.

Laid back swervin' like I'm George Jones

-

Smoke rollin' out the window

-

An ice cold beer sittin' in the console.

-

Memory Lane up in the headlights.

-

Got me reminiscing on the good times

-

Said I'm turnin' off the real life drive and that's right

-

Hittin' easy street on mud tires
