I've been on the grand ole opry

I've played a show with zz top

Went on tour with skynyrd and man they still rock

Shot the bull with bocephus, before he climbed up on his jet

Played south florida with alan jackson

That's some things that you never forget

And all that stuff it makes you feel real good

But not near as good...

As flyin' down a back road

With some buddies from back home

A splash of jack in my coke

Catchin' brim on a zebco

Spottin' deer in a hay field

After church a sunday meal

Huggin' mama before I go

Flyin' down a back road.

Up there in des moines, they knew my songs line by line

I just stood there in the fake smoke

Another dream came true that night

I've seen so many places, I thought I'd never see

All the way from california to as far as you can go east

And all that stuff it makes you feel real good,

But not near as good...

As flyin' down a back road

With some buddies from back home

A splash of jack in my coke

Catchin' brim on a zebco

Spottin' deer in a hay field

After church a sunday meal

And huggin' mama before I go

Yeah, flyin' down a back road.

I'm a lucky man, I got a real good life

With all the things I've done nothin' gets me as high...

As flyin' down a back road

With some buddies from back home

A splash of jack in my coke

Catchin' brim on a zebco

Spottin' deer in a hay field

After church a sunday meal

And huggin' my mama before I go

Yeah, flyin' down a back road

Oh, flyin' down a back road.
