[Intro]
(Acoustic guitar riff fades in, followed by a steady drum b**t and a touch of pedal steel)
[Verse 1]
Sun dips low on County Line Road
Windows down, radio's load
Of that same old song we used to know
Singin' loud, lettin' worries go
That b**t-up truck, a trusty steed
Takin' us wherever we'd need
Just me and you, and the open sky
Chasin' fireflies, passin' by
[Chorus]
Oh, it's dusty boots and dashboard lights
Small-town dreams on Friday nights
Singin' along under the moon so bright
Everything felt easy, everything felt right
Just a tank of gas and nowhere to be
Lost in the moment, wild and free
Yeah, dusty boots and dashboard lights
Made forever feel like one long night
[Verse 2]
Remember dancin' down by the creek?
Sneakin' kisses, hide and seek
With the headlights shinin' on the trees
Whispered secrets on the summer breeze
We carved our names on that old oak limb
Promised we'd always come back again
To this patch of earth, this piece of home
Where our young hearts learned to roam
[Chorus]
Oh, it's dusty boots and dashboard lights
Small-town dreams on Friday nights
Singin' along under the moon so bright
Everything felt easy, everything felt right
Just a tank of gas and nowhere to be
Lost in the moment, wild and free
Yeah, dusty boots and dashboard lights
Made forever feel like one long night
[Bridge]
Time moves on, roads unwind
Leavin' some things far behind
But that gravel sound beneath the tires
Still sparks the same old country fires
In my soul, yeah, deep inside
Where those simple joys still reside
[Chorus]
Oh, it's dusty boots and dashboard lights
Small-town dreams on Friday nights
Singin' along under the moon so bright
Everything felt easy, everything felt right
Just a tank of gas and nowhere to be
Lost in the moment, wild and free
Yeah, dusty boots and dashboard lights
Made forever feel like one long night
[Outro]
(Music swells slightly on the final chorus line, then gradually fades out with the acoustic guitar riff, pedal steel, and gentle drum b**t, evoking the sound of driving off into the distance)
