Lyrics

Yeah, I’m (Bm)chill in’ on (G)a dirt (D)road,

laid back, (Bm)swerv in’ like (G)I’m George (D)Jones.

Smoke (Bm)roll in’ out (G)the win (D)dow, an ice cold beer (Bm)sit tin’ in (G)the con (D)sole.

Mem o ry lane up in (G)the head (D)lights has got me rem i (Bm)nisc in’ on (G)them good (D)times.

I’m (Bm)turn in’ off (G)a real (D)life drive; and that’s right, I’m hit tin’ (Bm)eas y street (G)on mud (D)tires.

Back in the (Bm)day Potts farm (G)was the place to go, load the truck up, hit the dirt road.

(Bm)Jump the barbed (G)wire, spread the word, light the bon fire, then call the girls.

(Bm)King in the can (G)and the Marl b’ro (D)man, Jack and Jim were a few good men.

Where you (Bm)learned how to kiss (G)and cuss, and fight, (D)too.

Bet ter watch out for the boys in blue.

And (Bm)all this small (G)town he said, (D)she said, ain’t it fun ny how ru mors spread?

Like (Bm)“I know some (G)thin’ y’all don’t (D)know.” Man, that talk is get tin’ old.

You bet ter (Bm)mind your bus’ ness, (G)man, watch your mouth ’fore I have to knock that loud mouth out.

I’m (Bm)tired of talk in’.

(G)Man, y’all ain’t (D)lis t’nin’; them old dirt roads is what y’all miss in’.

I’m (Bm)chill in’ on (G)a dirt (D)road,

laid back, (Bm)swerv in’ like (G)I’m George (D)Jones.

Smoke (Bm)roll in’ out (G)the win (D)dow, an ice cold beer (Bm)sit tin’ in (G)the con (D)sole.

Mem o ry lane up in (G)the head (D)lights has got me rem i (Bm)nisc in’ on (G)them good (D)times.

I’m (Bm)turn in’ off (G)a real (D)life drive; and that’s right, I’m hit tin’ (Bm)eas y street (G)on mud (D)tires.

I sit (Bm)back and think a bout (G)them good ol’ days, the way we were raised in our South ern ways.

And we (Bm)like corn bread (G)and bis cuits; and if it’s broke a round here, we fix it.

(Bm)I can take y’all (G)where you need to go, down to my hood, back in them woods.

We do it dif f’rent (G)’round here, that’s (D)right, but we sure do it good and we do it all night.

So, if you real ly (G)wan na know how it (D)feels to get off the road with trucks and four wheels, (Bm)jump on in and, (G)man, tell your friends we’ll raise some hell where the black top ends.

I’m (Bm)chill in’ on (G)a dirt (D)road,

laid back, (Bm)swerv in’ like (G)I’m George (D)Jones.

Smoke (Bm)roll in’ out (G)the win (D)dow, an ice cold beer (Bm)sit tin’ in (G)the con (D)sole.

Mem o ry lane up in (G)the head (D)lights has got me rem i (Bm)nisc in’ on (G)them good (D)times.

I’m (Bm)turn in’ off (G)a real (D)life drive; and that’s right, I’m hit tin’ (Bm)eas y street (G)on mud (D)tires.

Let’s ride.

What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.

Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
