Kenny Chesney - Down the Road lyrics
rate meWhen I was a boy.
Four houses down from me
Was a family with an only child
She was the only girl
In this whole world that could make me smile.
Down the road
I made up reasons to go
Down the road.
Somewhere inside of me
There was something she took a liking to
Well, I asked her to marry me
She said she really wanted to.
Down the road
To see what life’s gonna hold
Down the road.
Her momma wants to know
If I washed in the blood or just in the water
Her daddy wants to know
If I make enough to take his daughter.
Down the road
Before he can let her go
Down the road.
--- Instrumental ---
Now, down the street from here
There’s an engineer with an only son
And our baby girl says
She believes that he is the only one.
Down the road.
Her momma wants to know
If I washed in the blood or just in the water
And I want to know
If I make enough to take his daughter.
Down the road
When it comes time to go
Down the road.
Down the road
You know I want to help her go
Down the road.
Down, down, down that road.
Down, down, down that road...
