VERSE There’s a four-lane highway, stretched up ahead People rollin’ 90 miles an hour, and going nowhere So when you need to slow down, I just turn that car around And take the back roads thru the country when I’m drivin’ home VERSE Sweet country music, on the radio Playin’ all those old songs we used to know Ohh, They take me back, to a place not long ago When we took the back roads thru the country When we’re drivin’ home INSTRUMENTAL break VERSE Rollin’ hills, deep blue skies, farmer Brown will tip his hat when you drive by Oh, we’re movin’ so fast, leave your troubles in the past and Take the back roads thru the country when you’re drivin’ home VERSE There’s a four-lane highway, stretched up ahead People rollin’ 90 miles an hour and gettin’ nowhere So when you need to slow down, just turn this car around And take the back roads thru the country Take the back roads thru the country Take the back roads thru the country when I’m drivin’ home Drivin’ home
