The Gravel Pit Gold

[Intro]
[Verse]
Dust on the dashboard glass
Fourteen hours just passed
Reaching for a pack of gum
Found where we started from
Plastic case and faded ink
Makes a tired man start to think
[Pre-Chorus]
Side A, track number four
I don't hear the diesel roar
Just the static and the hiss
Leading to our very first kiss
[Chorus]
Back at the gravel pit
Firewood and a little bit
Of magic in the midnight air
With woodsmoke in your hair
Twelve years gone in a blink
Stronger than I used to think
Yeah, we were golden then
And I’d do it all again
[Post-Chorus]
That gravel pit gold
Never getting old
Gravel pit gold
[Verse]
Foreman on the highway crew
Building roads that lead to you
That old tape is warbled now
But it kept its holy vow
Through the mortgage and the rain
Through the joy and through the pain
[Pre-Chorus]
Sun is dipping low and red
Thinking 'bout the life we've led
Every chord and every line
Tells me that you're still mine
[Chorus]
Back at the gravel pit
Firewood and a little bit
Of magic in the midnight air
With woodsmoke in your hair
Twelve years gone in a blink
Stronger than I used to think
Yeah, we were golden then
And I’d do it all again
[Bridge]
Steel guitar starts to moan
I'm never driving all alone
I see the porch light up ahead
Just like the songs we said
A little twang, a little soul
You’re the heart, I’m the roll
[Chorus]
Back at the gravel pit
Firewood and a little bit
Of magic in the midnight air
With woodsmoke in your hair
Twelve years gone in a blink
Stronger than I used to think
Yeah, we were golden then
And I’d do it all again
[Post-Chorus]
That gravel pit gold
Never getting old
Gravel pit gold
[Outro]
