Lyrics
Ten years old
Bitter and cold
In the middle of nowhere
Down an old dirt road
Well, trouble was my name
And momma was a saint
And daddy was a pistol-packin'
Paranoid man with a gun under his pillow
Now and again, I'd complain
Momma pulled me aside and set me straight
We chose
The backwoods life
We chose
The sacrifice
That glow
Of a lantern light
Keep the fire in your bones
Everybody knows
We chose
Guns and knives
We chose
To fight our fights
We know
What's wrong and right
She said
"Son we chose, we chose this gravel road"
Oh-oh-oh-ho-oh
Oh-oh-oh-ho
Never made no sense
To a teenage boy in the middle of summer who's missing his friends
Just about when I start to complain
Momma pulled me aside and set me straight
We chose
The backwoods life
We chose
The sacrifice
That glow
Of a lantern light
Keep the fire in your bones
Everybody knows
We chose
Guns and knives
We chose
To fight our fights
We know
What's wrong and right
She said
"Son we chose, we chose this gravel road"
Oh-oh-oh-ho-oh
Oh-oh-oh-ho
Oh-oh-oh-ho-oh
We chose, we chose, we chose
This gravel road
Oh-oh-oh-ho-oh
Oh-oh-oh-ho
Oh-oh-oh-ho-oh
These calloused hands made an honest man
We chose
The backwoods life
We chose
The sacrifice
That glow
Of a lantern light
Keep the fire in your bones
Everybody knows
We chose
Guns and knives
We chose
To fight our fights
We know
What's wrong and right
She said
"Son we chose, we chose this gravel road"
We chose (everybody knows)
The backwoods life
We chose (and everybody knows)
The sacrifice
That glow (and everybody knows)
Of a lantern light
We chose, we chose, we chose
(And everybody knows)
We chose (and everybody knows)
Guns and knives
We chose (and everybody knows)
To fight our fights
We know (and everybody knows)
We chose, we chose, we chose this
Gravel road
Oh-oh-oh-ho-oh
Oh-oh-oh-ho
Oh-oh-oh-ho-oh
