Daddy worked hard for his dollar
He said some folks don't-but that's okay
They won't know which road to follow
Because an easy street might lead you astray 

I'll take the dirt road-it's all I know
I've been walking it for years
Its gone where I need to go
Oh it ain't easy-it ain't supposed to be
So I'll take my time
And life won't pass me by
'Cause it's right there to find, On the dirt road 

I have lived life in the fast lane
You gotta watch your back and look both ways
When I said and done the time we have is borrowed
You better make real sure you're headed the right way
