lyrics

TAKE THE BACK ROAD HOME

Sheriff Mickey's got an attitude.
He's kinda mean and kinda rude
But he ain't nothing to his brother Mac
Who talks drunk to women
And gets his fool face slapped.

You better take the back road home.
They don't know your name,
But they know what you got on.
Till I call you on the telephone
Keep your head down low
And take the back road home.

Sheriff Mickey's on the radio.
Look out, boys, which way'd she go?
Stay in the flow, but you better make time
Till you get back safe, babe,
Across the county line.

You better take the back road home.
They don't know your name,
But they know what you got on.
Till I call you on the telephone
Keep your head down low
And take the back road home.

Brother Mac can learn a thing or two.
He never oughta talk that way to you.
Bet he'll think about you now and then
If he ever can stand up
Straight again.

You better take the back road home.
They don't know your name,
But they know what you got on.
Till I call you on the telephone
Keep your head down low
And take the back road home.

You better take the back road home.
They don't know your name,
But they know what you got on.
Till I call you on the telephone
Keep your head down low
And take the back road home.
Keep your head down low, babe,
And take the back road home.
