[Verse 1: Riley Green]
It used to be a fenced in pasture
Where grandpa used to drive a tractor
Where there used to be johnson grass
Instead of pouring out concrete
I can barely picture that ol’ bass pond
Filled up and put a neighborhood on
Or taking miles off memory lane
And I can’t help but think

[Chorus: Riley Green]
Where would me and daddy spilt that 6 pack

The first beer I’d love to have back
Where I took that curve too fast
Put that Ford in that creek
Where would I had found that church pew
That helped me walk a line in work boots
That small town green eyed girl
Would’ve climbed up in that bench seat
And where the hell is a good ol’ boy gonna go
When they pave all them red dirt roads

[Verse 2: Riley Green]
Dairy Queen was me and daddy’s duck field
Sure was a whole lotta time and birds killed
Boy, I wish I could go on back and feel a 12 gauge kick again
Heard they’re about to build a brand new Quick Sack
Where that old beat up red barn sat
Boy, I wish I could close the gate where all that asphalt ends

[Chorus: Riley Green]
Where would me and daddy spilt that 6 pack
The first beer I’d love to get back
Where I took that curve too fast
Put that Ford in that creek
Where would I had found that church pew
That helped me walk a line in work boots

The love of my life green eyed girl
She climbed up in that bench seat
And where the hell is a good ol’ boy gonna go
When they pave all them red dirt roads

[Post-Chorus: Riley Green]
If they pave all them red dirt roads

[Bridge: Riley Green]
Driving towards that setting sun
What might turn out to be the last one
Roll my window down
Turn up a little Brooks & Dunn

[Chorus: Brooks & Dunn & Riley Green]
It’s where I drank my first beer
Where I found Jesus
Where I wrecked my first car
I tore it all to pieces
I found the path to heaven
Is full of sinners and believers
Learning happiness on earth
Ain’t just for high achievers
Oh, I’ve learned is what I’ve come to know
Lord, I hope they never pave those red dirt roads

[Outro: Riley Green & Brooks & Dunn]
Pave all them red dirt roads
They never pave those red dirt roads
