Lyrics
[Verse 1]

I've got some big news

The bank finally came through

And I'm holdin' the keys to a brand new Chevrolet

Have you been outside it sure is a nice night

How about a little test drive down by the lake?

There's a place I know about where the dirt road runs out

And we can try out the four-wheel drive

Come on now what do you say?

Girl, I can hardly wait to get a little mud on the tires

'Cause it's a good night

To be out there soakin' up the moonlight

Stake out a little piece of shoreline

I've got the perfect place in mind

It's in the middle of nowhere only one way to get there

You got to get a little mud on the tires

[Verse 2]

Moonlight on a duck blind

Catfish on a trot line

Sun sets about nine this time of year

We can throw a blanket down

Crickets singin' in the background

And more stars than you can count on a night this clear

I tell you what we need to do is grab a sleepin' bag or two

And build us a little campfire

And then with a little luck we might just get stuck

Let's get a little mud on the tires

'Cause it's a good night

To be out there soakin' up the moonlight

Stake out a little piece of shoreline

I've got the perfect place in mind

It's in the middle of nowhere only one way to get there

You got to get a little mud on the tires

And then with a little luck we might just get stuck

Let's get a little mud on the tires
