V1
This work week is gettin to me
It’s written all over my face I
Don’t wanna go to them downtown bars 
I need a little change of pace 
Gas up that F150 
And say baby I’m on the way
Drive an hour down 40 
And ride past the lake 

Chorus
Down to the backwoods 
Where the moons our spotlight
With a fire a burning Like the stars so bright 
We’ll dance to some George Strait
Do our soul some good 
Let’s get out of this city 
And into the backwoods 
I just need some peace I just need some you 
Get out of the city And into them backwoods
Them Backwoods

Verse 2
I like my job and it’s pays the bills 
But I still have those weeks 
The boss man , the people, 
hell the paperwork’s  all getting to me 
I don’t want no neon lights 
Just some good ole fashion trees
I’ll inhale ….exhale 
if you know what I mean
 
Chorus
So take me Down to the backwoods 
Where the moons our spotlight 
With a fire a burning Like the stars so bright 
We’ll dance to some Alan Jackson 
Do our soul some good 
Let’s get out of this city And into the backwoods 
I just need some peace I just need some you 
Get out of the city And into them backwoods
Yeah, them backwoods

Bridge
I’m much too young to feel this damn old
The Backwoods connects me with my sou
Girl, I’m shameless when it comes to loving you
Dancing in the dark to so Garth Brooks

Chorus
So take me down to the Backwoods 
Where the moons our spotlight 
With a fire a burning like the stars so bright 
We’ll dance to some George Strait
Do our soul some good 
Let’s get out of this city And into the backwoods 
I just need some peace I just need some you 
Get out of the city And into them backwoods
Yeah, them backwoods

Yeah, them backwoods

I just need some peace I just need some you 
Get out of the city And into them backwoods
Yeah, them backwoods

Yeah, them backwoods
