Pedal To The Floor

ABOUT THIS SONG

Friday night on the dirt roads. Four wheel drive, windows down, nowhere to be.

LYRICS

Riding high in my red Chevy truck
Jacked up, lift crossbars looking tough
Floodlights blazing down these dirt roads
Up on Highway 69, you hear the bass in my radio
I got a call from the boys saying, "Where you at?"

He said, "I'm ten minutes out, better clear me a path"
Friday night started with nowhere to go
Then we all turned off the blacktop road
Ain't nothing like these country roads
Where you never meet a stranger
It's a small-town code

Floodlights blazing down Hog Jaw Road
If I'm driving too fast, then you're too damn old
Yeah, I'm a country boy and I can survive
Alabama nights in a four-wheel drive
Got my windows down, always room for more
With dirt on the wheels, pedal to the floor

Boots on the ground, dust in the air
Truck beds full and we just don't care
Arab nights, hometown pride
Young at heart and feeling alive
Week's been long, but it's a Friday night
Cold brews, close friends, feeling just right
From dusk till dawn like it's '95
Knobby tires grip on this four-wheel drive

Ain't nothing like these country roads
Where you never meet a stranger
It's a small-town code
Got my floodlights blazing down Hog Jaw Road
If I'm driving too fast, then you're too damn old

Yeah, I'm a country boy and I can survive
Alabama nights in a four-wheel drive
Got my windows down, always room for more
With dirt on the wheels, pedal to the floor

Got a blue-eyed beauty sitting by my side
Head to Charburger Grill, grab a shake and small fry
Gonna get some bait from Pier 69
Guntersville Lake, where we cast our line

Ain't nothing like these country roads
Where you never meet a stranger
It's a small-town code
Got my floodlights blazing down Hog Jaw Road
If I'm driving too fast, then you're too damn old

Yeah, I'm a country boy and I can survive
Alabama nights in a four-wheel drive
Got my windows down, always room for more
With dirt on the wheels, pedal to the floor

Dirt on the wheels, pedal to the floor
