Lyrics
Holiday Road
Written, produced, and performed by Scott Wilcox
Summer wind down a long country road
Americana blues singin' soft and low
My mind keeps time with the daffodil
To the rhythm and rhyme of a whippoorwill
Up in the Midwest, you'll find a great place to go
You can pick up a guitar and watch the corn grow
Sittin on the front porch sippin on a cup of joe
Way down on Holiday Road
Don't need no Cellphone or wireless internet
But we play a game of Euchre that you never will forget
You get out your guitar and play till the fire glows
Way down on Holiday Road
Chorus
Made in America with some rock and soul
A little bit of Cheesehead with some good ol creole
A little bit of some Motown with some Chicago blues
Then you mix it up with a glass of wine and a bottle of booze
And you got... Holiday Road
Don't need a Ferrari when you got an ATV
If you think your firepit is the hottest place to be
When a hot lookin' pick up sends you into overload
You're down on Holiday Road
If they're callin you a redneck or a hayseed or a hick
Find your way to our place and you'll fit in mighty quick
We'll give you an escort ridin' on the Rhino
Way down on Holiday Road
Chorus
