Little River from Bethel Road by Travis Lee Kern

I want to ride out right now, shift and put the hammer down
Freer than the fourth of July
Living in the city has got me feeling dizzy
I'm itching for that county line
Well I've got a rusty boat and I think it'll float
So if you want to come away with me
We'll let the little river take us where you can't see a road for the trees

You pack the chicken, I'll get the jigs and maybe we'll cast a line
But if it turns to night without even a bite, well baby that'll be just fine
We'll let the lightning bugs be the lights of love
As we drift in the cool cool breeze
And let the little river take us where you can't see a road for the trees

Well I've been waiting, praying, anticipating
A weekend we can get away
Fifty hour weeks have got me feeling beat
Leaving me no time to play
But now the weather's looking bright and the timing is right
So baby won't you come away with me
We'll let the little river take us where you can't see a road for the trees

You pack the chicken, I'll get the jigs and maybe we'll cast a line
But if it turns to night without even a bite, well baby that'll be just fine
We'll let the lightning bugs be the lights of love
As we drift in the cool cool breeze
And let the little river take us where you can't see a road for the trees
