Sometimes when life makes me crazy
I find some time to punch out
And take a long three-day weekend
And remind myself what life’s about
I jump in my pickup an old 87
Step on the gas and off we roll
Find a place in the middle of nowhere
Where the interstate’s an old country road
Chorus
Old country roads out in the farmland
Old country roads that’s where I go
Where the barns are red and time passes real slow
I’ll roll the windows down on an old country road
Turnaround

Don’t need no map don’t need no compass
Out here don’t need no GPS
The little General Store they got directions
Go round three curves and hang a left
Ain’t in no rush, no need to hurry
Counting blessings and old fence posts
With every mile I’m feeling better
I thank God for old country roads
Chorus

When I get tired of my nose on the grindstone
I get lost where fields of sweet corn grow
Chorus

I thank God for those old country roads
