Rolling down the road
I ride all night just to make this home
Were you all alone?
I'll be back before you know I'm gone

Tell your father that I've sinned
We'll make it up in the end

We all take the backroads, say it
We all take the backroads

Working nine to five
To the bone just to stay alive
Tell me that I'm wrong
That you're alone everytime I'm gone

Tell your father that I've sinned
But we'll make it up in the end

We all take the backroads, say it
We all take the backroads, say it

Nine to five to stay alive
Doing what I can
Nine to five getting by
Say I'm not a man

We all take the backroads, say it
We all take the backroads, say it
We all take the backroads, say it
We all take the backroads
