Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I've got some big news The bank finally came through And I'm holdin' the keys to a brand new Chevrolet Have you been outside, it sure is a nice night How about a little test drive Down by the lake? There's a place I know about where the dirt road runs out And we can try out the four-wheel drive Come on now what do you say Girl, I can hardly wait to get a little mud on the tires. [Chorus] 'Cause it's a good night To be out there soakin' up the moonlight Stake out a little piece of shore line I've got the perfect place in mind. It's in the middle of nowhere only one way to get there You got to get a little mud on the tires. Moonlight on a duck blind Catfish on a trot line Sun sets about nine this time of year We can throw a blanket down Crickets singin' in the background And more stars that you can count on a night this clear. I tell you what we need to do Is grab a sleepin' bag or two And build us a little campfire And then with a little luck we might just get stuck Let's get a little mud on the tires. [Chorus] And then with a little luck we might just get stuck Let's get a little mud on the tires.
