Verse
      E5    C5             G5
Daddy worked hard for his dollar
                    E5     C5           D5
He said, Some folks don't, but that's okay
           E5   C5            G5
They won't know which road to follow
                E5     D5                G5
Because an easy street might lead you astray


Chorus
              C5                     G5
I'll take the dirt road, it's all I know
        D5                                               G5
I been walkin' it for years, it's going where I need to go
D5        C5                        G5
It ain't easy, it ain't supposed to be
F5       E5      C5        F5          E5       C5
So I'll take my time, and life won't pass me by
        F5         E5       C5   D5        
'Cause it's right there to find on the dirt road

Verse
        E5   C5               G5
I have lived life in the fast lane
                      E5  C5             D5
You gotta watch your back and look both ways
                   E5        C5              G5
When it's said and done, the time we have is borrowed
                     E5          D5                G5
You better make real sure you're headed the right way
