Back Road words written by
Jeff Cosco ©1980 ASCAP

My life was laid out before I was born
Now I look back and the pages are torn
I had so much purpose, had so many goals
My heart felt thorns but my eyes saw a rose
There’s a lot of if I hads and wish I hads
Now it’s time for a now I will

The back road is so easy to see
I just look inside of me
But the future lies in the stars
Yeah not in flop houses, used women, and bars
oh oh

The roads been dusty, there’s a lot of sand in my shoes
There’s a lot of deep rivers without any clues
I can’t find that magic wand to show me the way
But it’s in my head that I’ll get through day by day
Good-bye back road for you are my past
I’m geared up for this four lane, my dye is cast

The back road is so easy to see
I just look inside of me
But the future lies in the stars
Yeah not in flop houses, used women, and bars
oh

Yeah, Good bye back road

ah ah…

The back road is so easy to see
I just look inside of me
But the future lies in the stars
Yeah not in flop houses, used women, and bars

The back road is so easy to see
I just look inside of me
But the future lies in the stars
Yeah not in flop houses, used women, and bars
