Nothing Much to Do

County was dry when we grew up
We had a buddy with a beard and a truck
And a fake ID
At seventeen
Marshall Tucker and Marlboro Reds
Baseball caps and lettermans
Took state that year
We were kings round here
When that small town shut down
'Bout the time we’d head out
Back home we were backroads
Just living our lives
Like the songs on the radio
We were doing it right
I don’t know where the time goes
It’s amazing what we got ourselves into
When there wasn’t nothing much to do
Homecoming queens and three-and-out
Post-game hangs at the hurdle house
Talking 'bout
What we would do when we got out
Oh, but what I wouldn’t give right now
To be back when we were backroads
Just living our lives
Like the songs on the radio
We were doing it right
I don’t know where the time goes
It’s amazing what we got ourselves into
When there wasn’t nothing much to do
We grew up and we slowed down
Some moved on, some stuck around
I just want one more go around
Back when we were backroads
Just living our lives
Like the songs on the radio
We were doing it right
I don’t know where the time goes
It’s amazing what we got ourselves into
When there wasn’t nothing much to do

We were doing it right
Yeah, back when we were backroads
Just living our lives
Like the songs on the radio
We were doing it right
I don’t know where the time goes
It’s amazing what we got ourselves into
When there wasn’t nothing much to do
