Kickin' Up Gravel

Intro

(Yeah) Dust settlin' on the dashboard...

Whoa-oh, yeah...

Verse

Sittin' on this old wooden porch swing,

Watchin' your red taillights fade down the lane.

Bottle in my hand, half gone by nine,

Thunder rollin' in like the hurt in my brain.

You packed up your bags, said we're done for good,

Left me with nothin' but these memories carved in wood.

Boots still muddy from dancin' last Friday night,

Now the kitchen light's flickerin', feelin' just right.

Chorus

But I'm kickin' up gravel, burnin' up the blacktop line,

Radio blastin' Haggard, drownin' out your goodbye.

Ain't turnin' back, no sir, this heartache's losin' steam,

Gonna chase that horizon till I'm whole again,

Yeah, whole again,

Gonna find my way, yeah, find my way home someday.

Verse

Truck bed loaded with your ghost and my favorite flannel,

Cooler fulla cold ones, enough to forget it all.

Wind in my hair, singin' along to the rain on the roof,

Small town gossip gonna talk, but I got the truth.

Your lipstick on the mirror, I wiped it clean away,

Pedal to the metal now, no more yesterday.

Chorus

I'm kickin' up gravel, burnin' up the blacktop line,

Radio blastin' Haggard, drownin' out your goodbye.

Ain't turnin' back, no sir, this heartache's losin' steam,

Gonna chase that horizon till I'm whole again,

Yeah, whole again,

Gonna find my way, yeah, find my way home someday.

Bridge

One more bend in the road, one more lonesome mile,

Steel guitar cryin' soft, bringin' back that smile.

(Oh-whoa) Maybe someday you'll see what you let go...

Till then, I'm gone.

Chorus

Kickin' up gravel, burnin' up the blacktop line,

Radio blastin' Haggard, drownin' out your goodbye.

Ain't turnin' back, no sir, this heartache's losin' steam,

Gonna chase that horizon till I'm whole again,

Yeah, whole again,

Gonna find my way... (find my way)

Yeah, find my way home someday.

Outro

Dust settlin' on the dashboard...

(Yeah) Home someday...

Whoa-oh... fade out.
