Lyrics
Possum Trot Road
Out in the boondocks
Where the millet's been mowed
Come park your old pickup
Off Possum Trot Road
It ain't on a streetmap
But the local folks know
Where you can hear steel strings
Off Possum Trot Road
We don't ask where you come from
Just wanna know: "How ya been?"
Mix a little music with your moonshine
Friday nights we pick and grin.
Bust out your banjo
Rosin that bow
Take a swig of white lightnin'
Off Possum Trot Road
(Instrumental)
(Chorus melody)
All week long we're wastin' sunshine
Workin' hard to make a dime
Come Friday..we need a little moon glow
Just to ease our minds.
Gimme Possum Trot Road
Possum Trot Road
Out in the boondocks
Where the millet's been mowed
It ain't on a streetmap
But the local folks know
Where you can hear steel strings
Off Possum Trot Road.
We don't ask where you come from
Just wanna know: "How ya been?"
Mix a little music with your moonshine
Friday nights we pick and grin.
Lean back and let the moon shine in
Lose you load...
Off Possum Trot...Road.
