  • Hey pretty girl let's met and take a ride
    Chase the moonlight up to the country side
    See heaven is about four turns away
    The sun is so sleepy, stars on their way
    Let's tailgate talk get lost in time
    Farm hard walk, your hand in mine
    Blood was right here, begging us to jump
    Let's shut the world off and do what we want

    Out here at the end of a dirt road,
    Out here where the cool grass grows
    The night sky is bright as it gets
    Out here we can lay our blanket down
    And know there ain't no one else around
    Except for you and me and the crickets

    This song is ready for work, my head is still spinning
    And your good morning smile got this ol' boy grinning
    Looking at my love, knowin' one you're all mine
    Feeling your heart beat through the whispering pines
    Lost in each other, lost from the world
    Found this true love, found is my girl
    Thank God for this,
    Thank God for you
    Thank God for dirt roads and where they led us too

    Out here at the end of a dirt road,
    Out here where the cool grass grows
    The night sky is bright as it gets
    Out here we can lay our blanket down
    And know there ain't no one else around
    Except for you and me and the crickets

    We got our own place, where our souls are free
    Only communication is you loving on me
    First step: kiss
    Second: who knows
    Last step's forever, we found where love grows

    Out here at the end of a dirt road,
    Out here where the cool grass grows
    The night sky is bright as it gets
    Out here we can lay our blanket down
    And know there ain't no one else around
    Except for you and me and the crickets

    Out here at the end of a dirt road,
    Out here where the cool grass grows
    The night sky is bright as it gets
    Out here we can lay our blanket down
    And know there ain't no one else around
    Except for you and me and the crickets
