Dirt Road Song

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
