"Mama I'm on fire
Old flame
Sweet desire
Comin' on the midnight
Comin' on the midnight train
Rollin' steel and thunder
Bring my baby back again
Roll on down the line
Big wheels rollin' right on time
Hear that whistle blowin'
Hear that engine roar and whine
Take care of my baby
Ridin' on that southern streamline
Well I got a little letter this morning
Just about the break of day
Bluebird ringin' my doorbell
Rollin' my blues away
Said honey when we go steppin'
Long about Saturday night
So head it down to the station
An' everything'll be alright
Honey what's that sound
Big wheels rollin' homeward bound
See that smokestack sparkin'
Lightin' up a purple sky
Take care of my baby
Ridin' on that southern streamline
Well I got a little letter this morning
Just about the break of day
Bluebird ringin' my doorbell
Rollin' my blues away
Said honey babe we'll go steppin'
Long about Saturday night
So head it down to the station
An' everything'll be alright
Mama I'm on fire
Old flame
Sweet desire
Comin' on the midnight
Honey let your little light shine
Rollin' steel and thunder
Ridin' on that southern streamline
Take care of my baby
Ridin' on that southern streamline

Ooh, let's go ridin'
Cruisin' down the open road
We can put the top down
Listen to the radio
Big ol' Buick
And a big ol' sky
Wheels on fire
And I'll tell you why
I got a hot rod heart
Ooh, let's go prowlin'
Sneakin' like we used to do
Way back in the country
Cut across the cornfields too
Big ol' Harley
And a big ol' moon
Big ol' 'gator
Puttin' on the zoom
I got a hot rod heart
Chorus:
Got a one-way ticket to the open road
Come on
Got a red line engine
And I'm rarin' to go
Put the pedal to the metal
If you want to ride
If you want to ride
Let's go
Ooh, let's go ridin'
Rollin' down the open road
We can put the top down
Listen to the radio
Big ol' Buick
And a big ol' sky
Wheels on fire
And I'll tell you why
I got a hot rod heart

Way back in the hills
There's a ploace I know
People comes from miles around
Just to watch 'ol Dooley do the show
Ooh let the blueboy play
Ooh let the blueboy play
Gonna ride the mule
Gonna chase him too
Pullin' on-a pullin' on-a
Pullin' on-a pony
He goes...
Soon's the sun go down
That's when the fun begins
Hitch your wagon down the track
Up to the roadhouse
And come on in
Ooh let the blueboy play
Ooh let the blueboy play
Gonna ride the mule
Gonna chase him too
Pullin' on-a pullin' on-a
Pullin' on-a pony
He goes...
Instrumental
Sheriff says it late
Closin' time we got to go
But Dooley he don't want to quit
Ain't nobody feels like goin' home
Ooh let the blueboy play
Ooh let the blueboy play
Gonna ride the mule
Gonna chase him too
Pullin' on-a pullin' on-a
Pullin' on-a pony
He goes...

A Hundred And Ten In The Shade
Way out there in the cotton
Sun beatin' down so hard
Sweat rollin' of this shovel
Diggin' in the devil's bone yard
Sure like a cool drink of water
Soft rag to soothe my face
Sure like a woman to talk to in this place
It's a hundred and ten
Hundred and ten in the shade
Goin' way down
Mama won't you carry me
Handle so hot I can't stand it
Might shrivel up and blow away
Noonday sun make you crazy
Least, that's what the old men say
Bottom land hard as a gravestone
Couldn't cut it with an axe
Gonna lay me down right here
And that's a fact
It's a hundred and ten
Hundred and ten in the shade
Goin' way down
Mama won't you carry me
Sometimes late in the evenin'
Everything is quiet and still
I set here and think about leavin'
Lord, I guess I never will
Heartache down in that city
Bright light scares me anyway
Sure like a woman to talk in this place
It's a hundred and ten
Hundred and ten in the shade
Goin' way down
Mama won't you carry me

Rattlesnake Highway
It may look easy
When you look at me
But it took years of effort
To become the mess that you see
Now what kind of woman
Take you for a ride
Down the rattlesnake highway
An' leave you busted up inside
All busted up inside
Smiles like a cobra
With her rattlesnake eyes
'n leave you for dead on the highway
Just mumblin' at the sky
She did me wrong
She did me wrong
She did me wrong
Tell me...she did me
Smiles like a cobra
With her rattlesnake eyes
'n leave you for dead on the highway
Just mumblin' at the sky
Now she did me wrong
She did me so wrong
She did me wrong
You know she did me so wrong
Get me outta here

Bring It Down To Jelly Roll
Well, if you want
To ease your mind
You just go on
Take it to the river
When you're down
Well, that's alright
You just bring it down to jelly roll
We're gonna run
A-jump and shout
We're gonna slide
Way back in the country
There's a place
Where they treat you right
You just bring it down to jelly roll
The little girls
Way down south
They got their way
Honey drippin' from their mouth
If you ever get some luck
You just bring it down to jelly roll
Now look at me
Lord, I ain't got a dime
But I can dance
Lord, I'm jumping all the time
I live honey, straight to the bone
You just bring it down to jelly roll
Well, if you want
To ease your mind
You just go on
Take it to the river
When you're down
Well, that's alright
You just bring it down to jelly roll

Walking In A Hurricane
Shadows fallin' in my room
Ghost riders dancin' on the moon
Night is closin' in again
Clutchin' to my tremblin' bed
Call your name 'til I'm out of my head
Walkin' the backstreets
Lookin' for clues
I got to get you back
If it's the last thing I do
I'll go walkin' in a hurricane
I'll come crawlin' in a drivin' rain
I'll keep searchin' 'til I go insane
I got to have your love
Lookin' out across the lights
I know you're out there
Runnin' with the night
'Round and 'round
A moth to the flame
And when I finally got you home
It's just a matter of time 'til you're gone
Heartache and shadow draggin' you down
This chain around your heart
Gonna put you in the ground
I'll go walkin' in a hurricane
I'll come crawlin' in a drivin' rain
I'll keep searchin' 'til I go insane
I got to have your love
Everytime you go away
I got the same old wild goose chase
Hangin' on to misery
I should-a quit you long ago
Just packed it up and hit the road
I'm just a junkie
Addicted to the flame
I'm hooked on the danger
I can't quit this game
I'll go walkin' in a hurricane
I'll come crawlin' in a drivin' rain
I'll keep searchin' 'til I go insane
I got to have your love

Swamp River Days
Two-lane shinin' in the July dust
Heat risin' off the road
Out in front of my truck
Pulled my pick-up over the hill
Down the slide gravel through the cat-tails
Give me those swamp river days again
Sat down in the shade of a cotton wood tree
Pretty soon the swamp critters' callin' me
Skinny river kids swim in my mind
Hucklebums on cane-pole time
Give me those swamp river days again
Old memories out in the crick
Playin' hooky with a hobo stick
Old memories startin' to fade
Take me away
Cody river playin' on the radio
Takes me back to a girl I used to know
Sweet Susie do you think about me
That was good as it's ever gonna be
Give me those swamp river days again
Give me those swamp river days again
. . .

Rambunctious Boy
My oh my I'm a restless guy
Got a home everywhere I go
Well I ain't good lookin'
And I ain't so smart
But baby I'm a sensitive guy
I ain't done everything there is to do
But I'll damn sure give it a try
I'm a lookin'
I'm a lookin'
For a big time bookin' with you
So come on baby
Let's go howlin' at the honky-tonk moon
I'm a rambunctious boy
Rambunctious boy
Oh my I'm a restless guy
Got a home everywhere I go
I'm-a trouble on the run
Heartbreakin' son of a gun
Oh yeah I'm a rambunctious boy
I'll be workin' all week in the big boss yard
I 'bout had it up to here
I ain't got time for a Caribbean cruise
Just give me a song and a beer
I feel like rompin'
Stompin' and bonking' it up real loud
So come on baby
Tell your girlfriend
There's a crowd
I'm a rambunctious boy
Rambunctious boy
Oh my I'm a restless guy
Got a home everywhere I go
I'm-a trouble on the run
Heartbreakin' son of a gun
Oh yeah I'm a rambunctious boy
I'm a rambunctious boy
Rambunctious boy
Oh my I'm a restless guy
Got a home everywhere I go
I'm-a trouble on the run
Heartbreakin' son of a gun
Oh yeah I'm a rambunctious boy

I tiptoed in the room
I know you got to have your rest
She says, 'Come lay beside me,
I've been waitin' since you left'
She's sweet to me
Must be the luckiest man alive
And did I tell you baby
You are the joy of my life
First time that I saw you
Ooh, you took my breath away
I might not get to heaven
But I walked with the Angels that day
She takes me by the hand
I am the luckiest man alive
And did I tell you baby
You are the joy of my life
Some may have their riches
Some may have their worldly fame
Long as I have you
I'll treasure each and every day
Just take me by the hand
I am the luckiest man alive
And did I tell you baby
You are the joy of my life
And did I tell you baby
You are the joy of my life

Blue Moon Nights
Help me fellas
I'm feelin' kind-a weak
The way I'm livin' just ain't right
I need somebody t' watch over me
All my blue moon nights
I want a girl to take me by the hand
Follow me right down the line
Hold me gently while we dance
All my blue moon nights
Heaven only knows I don't want to be
Just a fool, passin' through
Won't you send me an angel to walk with me
All my blue moon nights
Help me fellas
It's gettin' kind-a late
Runnin' out of precious time
She might pass me while I waste
All my blue moon nights
Heaven only knows I don't want to be
Just a fool, passin' through
Won't you send me an angel to walk with me
All my blue moon nights
. . .
