Blacktop Lyrics
[Verse 1]
This ain't no song about the good old days
Simpler times or easy ways
Or how I long for an old dirt road
Greener grass or a lighter load
[Chorus]
I was glad to see the blacktop
When they laid it down in '65
Yeah I was glad to see the blacktop
No more dust in my eyes
[Verse 2]
Rain would fall and the mud would rise
Through my toes in the summer time
August heat would dry that clay
Dust went flying like a dandelion
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Stubbed my toes on rocks and stones
Slipped and fell in old potholes
Watched my mama shake that line
Dust them clothes off hanging in the hot sunshine
[Chorus]
This ain't no song about the good old days
Simpler times or easy ways
Or how I long for an old dirt road
Greener grass or a lighter load
I was glad to see the blacktop
When they laid it down in '65
Yeah I was glad to see the blacktop
No more dust in my eyes
Rain would fall and the mud would rise
Through my toes in the summer time
August heat would dry that clay
Dust went flying like a dandelion
Stubbed my toes on rocks and stones
Slipped and fell in old potholes
Watched my mama shake that line
Dust them clothes off hanging in the hot sunshine
