Lyrics Kenny Chesney with Mac McAnally - Down The Road

When I was a boy
Four houses down from me
Was a family with an only child

She was the only girl
In this whole world
That could make me smile

Down the road
I made up reasons to go
Down the road

Somewhere inside of me
There was something she took a liking to
Well, I asked her to marry me
She said she really wanted to

Down the road
See what life's gonna hold
Down the road

Her mama wants to know
Am I washed in the blood
Or just in the water
Her daddy wants to know
If I make enough
To take his daughter
Down the road
Before he can let her go
Down the road

Now down the street from here
There's an engineer with an only son
And our baby girl says she believes that he is the only one
Down the road

Her mama wants to know
Is he washed in the blood
Or just in the water
And I want to know
That he makes enough
To take my daughter
Down the road
When it comes time to go
Down the road

Down the road
You know I want to help her go
Down the road

Down, down, down, down the road
Down, down, down, down the road
