Daddy worked hard for his dollar
He said some folks don't, but that's okay
But 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
It's 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 it's said and done, the time we have is borrowed
You better make real sure, you're headed the right way
I'll take the dirt road, it's all I know
I've been walking it for years
It's gone where I need to go
And, 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
I'll take the dirt road, it's all I know
I've been walking it for years
It's 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
On the dirt road
