Blacktop Lyrics

This ain't no song 'bout the good old days
Simpler times or easy ways
Oh, how I long for an old dirt road
Greener grass or a lighter load
(Chorus)
I was glad to see the blacktop
When they laid it down in Sixty-five
Yeah, I was glad to see the blacktop
No more dust in my eyes

Rain would fall and the mud would rise
Through my toes in the summer-time
All those teen would drive and play
Just to fly like a dande-lion
(Chorus)
I was glad to see the blacktop
When they laid it down in Sixty-five
Yeah, I was glad to see the blacktop
No more dust in my eyes
I stomped my toes on rocks and stones
Slept in fair--y mo park homes
Watch my momma shake that line
Dusting clothes off hanging in a hot sun-shine

(Chorus)
I was glad to see the blacktop
When they laid it down in Sixty-five
Yeah, I was glad to see the blacktop
No more dust in my eyes
