I was raised off of Rural Route 3
Out past where the blacktop ends
We`d walk to church on Sunday morning
Race barefoot back to the Johnson`s fence
That`s where I first saw Mary
On that roadside pickin` blackberries
That summer I turned a corner in my soul
Down that red dirt road

[Chorus]
It`s where I drank my first beer
It`s where I found Jesus
Where I wrecked my first car
I tore it all to pieces
I learned the path to Heaven
Is full of sinners and believers
Learned that happiness on Earth
Ain`t just for high achievers
I`ve learned, I`ve come to know
There`s life at both ends of that red dirt road

[Verse 2]
Her daddy didn`t like me much
With my shackled up GTO
I`d sneak out in the middle of the night
Throw rocks at her bedroom window
We`d turn out the headlights
Drive by the moonlight
Talk about what the future might hold
Down that red dirt road

It`s where I drank my first beer
It`s where I found Jesus
Where I wrecked my first car
I tore it all to pieces
I learned the path to Heaven
Is full of sinners and believers
Learned that happiness on Earth
Ain`t just for high achievers
I`ve learned, I`ve come to know
There`s life at both ends of that red dirt road

[Bridge]
I went out into the world
And I came back in
I lost Mary
Oh, I got her back again
And driving home tonight
Feels like I`ve found a long lost friend

[Chorus]
It`s where I drank my first beer
It`s where I found Jesus
Where I wrecked my first car
I tore it all to pieces
I learned the path to Heaven
Is full of sinners and believers
Learned that happiness on Earth
Ain`t just for high achievers
I`ve learned, I`ve come to know
There`s life at both ends of that red dirt road


[Outro]
Yes, I`ve learned, I`ve come to know
There`s life at both ends of that red dirt road
