Intro:  Cadd9 G   Cadd9 G   Cadd9 G    D G 
 
       Cadd9           G  
Now to night there's a backroad 
      Cadd9  G 
And a pickup truck 
      Cadd9       G 
And a cab full of buddies 
            D 
And they're getting drunk 
 
           Cadd9        G 
And it was Boone's Farm wine 
     Cadd9       G 
It's wild turkey straight 
            Cadd9         G 
And they're pulling their pickups 
         D       G 
thru the pasture gate 
 
(break-repeat intro) 
 
Now tonight there's a full moon 
Shining on the farm barn 
And a fire will be burning 
Up until dawn 
 
And it's everyone who's someone 
Sitting on a tail gate 
Wishing they were single or 
Wishing they had a date 
 
Now the only thing 
Around here's changed 
Is that those kids 
They've all got different names 
 
And the ones that used to hang around 
Got a heavy work load 
But their minds still go drifting 
Down Yesterday Road 
 
Now today there's a backroad 
With an angry old man 
Cuz he's straightin' out his mailbox 
And he's picking up cans 
 
And there'll be boys woke up with headaches 
And there are girls who are ashamed 
And there'll be parents full of questions 
But there's always friends to blame 
 
Now the only thing 
Around here's changed 
Is that those kids 
They've all got different names 
 
And the ones that used to hang around 
Got a heavy work load 
But their minds still go drifting 
Down Yesterday Road 
 
It was Boone's Farm wine 
It was wild turkey straight 
And we were pulling our pickups 
thru the pasture gate 
 
Add "La di da's"
