Smokestack Lady
Eighteen years in the Tennessee sun Grew up fishing on the Cumberland Little Joe, the youngest son Slung a slingshot and a squirrel gun
Daddy ran 'shine 'neath the moonlight Bowling Green to them Nashville nights Little Joe learned riding shotgun To keep your mouth shut till the job is done
Sixty-seven rolled around Joe got the call and he headed on out Across the ocean for the Vietnam Gonna hit the coast running … gonna be a man
Jackie D meet Mary J You're gonna do just what I say Grab your gun and roll on out Your first ramble gonna scream and shout
So tie a ribbon round the old oak tree Tell my momma don't worry 'bout me The weather's warm around Christmas time I've got an M-16 and my boots are dry
I'm sitting up here like a cat in a tree Waiting for Charlie, gonna set him free Uncle Sam said I'm the man Goodbye Charlie
Bengals on the ground, snakes in the trees Tet comes a'gunning he don't know about me Johnny's in the front Charlie's in the back Tree comes a'crashing six days in the black
Open your eyes now Joe's done his time Come back alive but he done left his mind Uncle Sam said, 'Son thank you, Lay down your guns 'cause we're through with you.'
Now I see the ribbon round the old oak tree I told my momma don't worry 'bout me The weather's warm around Christmas time I've got an M-16 and my boots are dry
I'm sitting up here like a cat in a tree Waiting for Charlie, gonna set him free Uncle Sam said I'm the man Goodbye Charlie

Smokestack Lady, why you gotta treat me so mean? I've been running these roads up and down, L.A. to New Orleans I gotta keep them wheels a rolling, Rolling on down the line straight for you 更多更詳盡歌詞 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
I got them eighteen wheels long gone Ain't seen my baby in too long I got them smokestack, hauling jack, switchback, kickin' back Runaway freeway blues
Come on sweet daddy, you know I'd never treat you that way I got a brand new dress and a pair a shoes and I'm waiting for the day You come rolling on up over that hill with your smokestack flaming And your big chrome grill smiling just for me
I got them eighteen wheels long gone Ain't seen my baby in too long I got them smokestack, hauling jack, switchback, kickin' back Runaway freeway blues
Well I met me a voodoo woman, she said 'look me in the eye! You got a good woman you truck driving fool slow down or you're gonna die.' One more cup of coffee One more puff on the old smokestack
I got them eighteen wheels long gone Ain't seen my baby in too long I got them smokestack, hauling jack, switchback, kickin' back Runaway freeway blues
Roll on home daddy, lay that hammer down The hounds are barking at my door and I really need your loving now I got a shotgun kiss waiting for you Two loving arms and whatever you want to
I got them eighteen wheels long gone Ain't seen my baby in too long I got them smokestack, hauling jack, switchback, kickin' back Runaway freeway blues
Well I was born down in Texas, raised up in Tennessee Been looking for a woman since the day I was born and baby you're the one for me I gotta keep them wheels rolling Rolling on down the line straight for you
I got them eighteen wheels long gone Ain't seen my baby in too long I got them smokestack, hauling jack, switchback, kickin' back Runaway freeway blues
Come on smokestack daddy let that engine run It's time to kick her in high gear and we're really gonna have some fun Tick tack tick tack tickety tack Get on back I got a brand new pair of shoes
I got them eighteen wheels long gone Ain't seen my baby in too long I got them smokestack, hauling jack, switchback, kickin' back Runaway freeway blues
I got them smokestack, hauling jack, switchback, kickin back Runaway freeway blues
