C. Mead, C. Scruggs



We used to be so happy we used to be so true

We used to think there wasn't anything we couldn't do

But they could see right through us we didn't seem to care

We were on a highway that ain't going anywhere

They told us we were wrong a thousand times

We rode out to the country and got tangled in the pines



We tried to take it slowly we tried to understand

That we'd be on a one way trip if things got out of hand

We lost our direction you could say we lost our touch

Now all of those petty things don't seem to matter much

I can take your blame if you take mine

We rode out to the country and got

tangled in the pines



Now we're lost forever along the roadway side

But I can't say I'm sorry that we took that foolish ride

We couldn't get along at all no we just disagreed

You drove me to the point where I just drove into the trees

I guess we should have seen the warning signs

When we drove out to the country and got tangled in the pines
