  • I've got some big news
    The bank finally came through
    And I'm holdin' the keys to a brand new Chevrolet
    Have you been outside, it sure is a nice night
    How about a little test drive
    Down by the lake?

    There's a place I know about where the dirt road runs out
    And we can try out the four-wheel drive
    Come on now what do you say
    Girl, I can hardly wait to get a little mud on the tires.

    [Chorus]
    'Cause it's a good night
    To be out there soakin' up the moonlight
    Stake out a little piece of shore line
    I've got the perfect place in mind.
    It's in the middle of nowhere only one way to get there
    You got to get a little mud on the tires.

    Moonlight on a duck blind
    Catfish on a trot line
    Sun sets about nine this time of year
    We can throw a blanket down
    Crickets singin' in the background
    And more stars that you can count on a night this clear.

    I tell you what we need to do
    Is grab a sleepin' bag or two
    And build us a little campfire
    And then with a little luck we might just get stuck
    Let's get a little mud on the tires.

    [Chorus]

    And then with a little luck we might just get stuck
    Let's get a little mud on the tires. Writer/s: BRAD PAISLEY, CHRIS DUBOIS
