Twelve roses in a vase, four roses in a glass
At this rate, neither of 'em gonna last too long
'Cause she's gone
Poor old me 'bout to pour one more
'Til I stop seein' her walkin' out the door like that
But if I know it like I think I do, she'll be back

When this dirt roads downtown
When the sun sets in the South
And country songs stop playin' on our hometown station
And momma stops prayin' out loud
When heartbreaks don't hurt like hell
All the whiskey finally helps
Yeah, I'll be over her not bein' around
When this dirt roads downtown

Probably wastin' my time thinkin' that we ain't done
Hopin' that hell is callin' for a cold front
And she turns around, hits back my way
Yeah, baby someday

When this dirt roads downtown
When the sun sets in the South
And country songs stop playin' on our hometown station
And momma stops prayin' out loud
When heartbreaks don't hurt like hell
All the whiskey finally helps
Yeah, I'll be over her not bein' around
When this dirt roads downtown

Dirt roads downtown

Yeah, I can't say for sure
But I'd stop missin' her

When this dirt roads downtown
When the sun sets in the South
When country songs stop playin' on our hometown station
And all the cold beer runs out
When heartbreaks don't hurt like hell
All the whiskey finally helps
Yeah, I'll be over her not bein' around
When this dirt roads downtown

Mhh
When this dirt roads downtown

Twelve roses in a vase, four roses in a glass
At this rate, neither of 'em gonna last too long
'Cause she's gone
