[Verse 1] Sun going down on a two-lane road Half tank of gas and a heavy load Dust in the mirror, hometown fading away I’ve made some mistakes, but they made me this way Got the windows down and the radio loud A little more humble, a little more proud Don’t know where I’m headed, but I know one thing I’m gonna give this life everything [Chorus] I’m gonna raise me a family Build me a home Find a little piece of dirt To call my own (raise me a family) Cold beer Friday under them stars Old dog sleeping by an old beat-up car I’ve been knocked down But I bounce right back I’m headed for tomorrow And I ain’t looking back [Verse 2] Someday there’ll be pictures hanging down the hall Little muddy footprints running through it all Sunday morning coffee, screen door swinging wide The woman that I love sitting right by my side I don’t need millions or my name in lights Just food on the table and some peaceful nights And when my kids ask how I got where I’m at I’ll tell ’em, “Keep moving and don’t look back” [Bridge] Every scar’s got a story Every mile’s got a name Wouldn’t change where I’m going Wouldn’t change where I came (changed where I came) [Final Chorus] I’m gonna raise me a family Build me a home Find a little piece of dirt To call my own (raise me a family) Bonfire burning under them stars Country on the radio, dreams in my heart Yeah, I’ve been knocked down But I bounce right back Got my hands on the wheel And my life on track Yesterday’s gone And I’m good with that I’m headed for tomorrow And I ain’t looking back
