"These Roads" lyrics
Oh oh
Yeah
(Cobra)
Oh
Oh yeah
Alright, let's go
Yeah
These roads ain't like home I been drivin' all night long
Tryna find somewhere to be, tryna find someone like me
And I can't seem to find 'em
These roads ain't like home I been drivin' all night long
Tryna find somewhere to be, tryna find someone like me (Yeah)
And I can't seem to find 'em (Let's go, yeah)
I been up late, 3 am, thinking about my life
How shit can change so fast, and how it flies, it passes by
Two years ago, it was me and Slagle every night
Turnin' dirt to diamonds, takin' trucks up 105
Every kid where I live learned to drift
In the Chevy S-10 down Greenlee Road
We all know
After dark, if you throw that bitch in park
Cut the lights, and you just might see that folktale ghost (Boo)
I wanna call my momma up
Hit text and call, fill my truck up
Highway 80 Locust Cove
Sittin' round that old wood stove
That was then and this is now
Ain't no small left in this town
Every time I look around
One thing gets lost, it can't be found
Damn, and it's breakin' my heart
This old school Ford still pushes to start
I close my eyes, I'm at West Court, pushin' the cart
Out on Wildlife Road, just gazin' at stars
Yeah
These roads ain't like home I been drivin' all night long
Tryna find somewhere to be, tryna find someone like me
And I can't seem to find 'em
These roads ain't like home I been drivin' all night long
Tryna find somewhere to be, tryna find someone like me
And I can't seem to find 'em (Yeah)
Aye, John
Swappin' road raised to bad bitch
My daddy raised a muscle car drivin' savage
I'm really just a hurt Southern girl with baggage
Don't hide my troubles, I ain't made of plastic
Ain't nothin' like a rusted brake nose for bussin' down
A lone, slow road where life means somethin'
Backwoods kids makin' somethin' out of nothin'
Gonna need your sawzall if the 35's rubbin' off the paint
Rattle can of paint, underpass with names
Feel the pain, runnin' from my hurt tryna save my name
Switchin' lanes, keep me from these chains
I don't want to change, feelin' strange
'Cause I moved away, now I feel astray
Help, feel like I'm losin' myself
I could take the high road but the valley's been down
I'ma take the parkway, viaduct out this Hell
Yeah, livin' in the city's like livin' in a cell
I've been drivin' down these roads (Down these roads)
It don't look like nothin' I've seen before, no backroads to go
I been takin' curve after curve after curve after curve
But none of them lead me home
Turn my dogwood heart to stone, c'mon
These roads ain't like home I been drivin' all night long
Tryna find somewhere to be, tryna find someone like me
And I can't seem to find 'em
These roads ain't like home I been drivin' all night long
Tryna find somewhere to be, tryna find someone like me
And I can't seem to find 'em
Yeah
(Cobra)
Oh
Oh yeah
Alright, let's go
Yeah
These roads ain't like home I been drivin' all night long
Tryna find somewhere to be, tryna find someone like me
And I can't seem to find 'em
These roads ain't like home I been drivin' all night long
Tryna find somewhere to be, tryna find someone like me (Yeah)
And I can't seem to find 'em (Let's go, yeah)
