Back roads to the Beach
By James Torrey
I’ve been driving all week down a sunbaked road
Chasing that feeling only summer knows
Got a cooler full of long necks and my boots kicked free
Radio upload just my truck and me
Chorus
Coconuts in the trees and beautiful women in bikinis
A Small-town boy getting lost in island dreams
Salt on my skin that warm Gulf breeze
Yea life feels right where the water meets the green
Verse2
Theres a bonfire glow when the day lights fade
Guitars on the shore playing old George Strait
She’s dancing barefoot looking right at me
Laughing like she knows she’s all I will ever need
Chorus
Coconuts in the trees and beautiful women in bikinis
A Small-town boy getting lost in island dreams
Salt on my skin that warm Gulf breeze
Yea life feels right where the water meets the green
Verse3
Maybe tomorrow I’ll head back home
But tonight this beach is where I belong
If heaven has a place like this
Its sun kissed sand and a long slow kiss
Chorus
Coconuts in the trees and beautiful women in bikinis
A heart wide open in a world that feels easy
Waves rolling in like a sweet melody
Yeah, this country boy found his paradise by the sea
