Lyric

I was raised off of rural route three

Out past where the blacktop ends

We'd walk to church on Sunday morning

And race barefoot back to Johnson's fence

That's where I first saw Mary

On that roadside pickin' blackberries

That summer I turned the corner in my soul

Down that red dirt road

Her daddy didn't like me much

In my shackled up GTO

I'd sneak out in the middle of the night

Throw rocks at her bedroom window

We'd turn out the headlights

And drive by the moonlight

Talk about what the future might hold

Down that red dirt road

It's where I drank my first beer

It's where I found Jesus

Where I wrecked my first car

I tore it all to pieces

I learned the path to Heaven

Is full of sinners and believers

Learned that happiness on Earth

Ain't just for high achievers (I learned)

I've come to know there's life at both ends

Of that red dirt road

I went out into the world

And I came back in

I lost Mary

Oh, I got her back again

And driving home tonight

Feels like I found a long-lost friend

It's where I drank my first beer

It's where I found Jesus

Where I wrecked my first car

I tore it all to pieces

I learned the path to Heaven

Is full of sinners and believers

Learned that happiness on Earth

Ain't just for high achievers (oh, I learned)

I've come to know there's life at both ends

Oh, I've learned, I've come to know there's life at both ends

Of that red dirt road

- It's already the end -
