So my mom is so naive and innocent. I want to know from my family members and anyone else who might have heard this expression, although I think it is mostly a family thing, if you think the phrase, "Old dirt road" means anything more than the last stretch on the cribbage board. Keep in mind that at one end of "old dirt road" is the "stink hole" or the "skunk hole." And keep in mind that when my grandfather or father or various other cribbage playing family members ever said "I'm headed down old dirt road" they would often giggle knowingly.
I can't believe she never figured this out. Is she the only one? She doesn't think Tuney knows.
I also explained to my mother about rusty trombones and dirty Sanchez's and Cleveland steamers today. This is how "old dirt road" came up into conversation, in case you were wondering.

I did not think the "old" part was mandatory. Sometimes it's just "dirt road." And I am not aware of any other meaning.
What? Old dirt road. Down Dirt Road. I'm headed down dirty. Old dirt road. Ha ha, hee hee. Old dirt road. Stink Hole, Skunk hole. Are you kidding me?
Buttholes and poop-shoots. Ask your brother or your brother-in-law or your nephew. Or your son, probably. Just think of all the other dirty filthy jokes that people make all the time that you aren't getting! How can people live this way?
You're totally crazy.
