*Lyrics*

(Verse 1)
Well, I was runnin’ on empty, just about spent
Got a heart full of troubles and a pocket full of lint
Needed somethin’ stronger than a bottle or a prayer
So I hit that two-lane, wind in my hair

(Pre-Chorus)
Ain’t nothin’ like a sunset in my rearview
A radio playin’ ol’ George Strait tunes
Pedal down, leavin’ my blues behind
Sometimes the cure is a long stretch of white lines

(Chorus)
Give me a backroad remedy, rollin’ free
Dirt kickin’ up like it’s settin’ me free
Got a tank full of gas and a need to run
Chasin’ down the night with the risin’ sun
Ain’t no worries gonna catch me now
With the windows down and the speakers loud
The only thing I need to set me right
Is a backroad remedy and a full moon night

(Verse 2)
Well, love went south and the bills piled high
Spent too many days just gettin’ by
But the tires hum a tune that my soul understands
Every mile I go, I feel whole again

(Pre-Chorus)
Ain’t nothin’ like a warm breeze through the pines
A little Merle Haggard easin’ my mind
Driftin’ away from the mess I’ve made
Let the wind blow my troubles away

(Chorus)
Give me a backroad remedy, rollin’ free
Dirt kickin’ up like it’s settin’ me free
Got a tank full of gas and a need to run
Chasin’ down the night with the risin’ sun
Ain’t no worries gonna catch me now
With the windows down and the speakers loud
The only thing I need to set me right
Is a backroad remedy and a full moon night

(Bridge)
Ain’t lookin’ for answers, just lookin’ for peace
Let the white lines whisper what I need to believe
Maybe someday I’ll turn this truck around
But tonight, I ain’t slowin’ down

(Final Chorus)
Give me a backroad remedy, rollin’ free
Dirt kickin’ up like it’s settin’ me free
Got a tank full of gas and a need to run
Chasin’ down the night with the risin’ sun
Ain’t no worries gonna catch me now
With the windows down and the speakers loud
The only thing I need to set me right
Is a backroad remedy and a full moon night

(Outro)
Yeah, I’ll be gone ‘til the break of day
With a backroad remedy showin’ me the way
