Interstate Forty |
Walkin' down the shoulder of Interstate Forty cussin' every rock that I kick |
Since I lost everything in the last depression I’ve just give up and I’ve quit |
But I’m happy tho I ain’t had nothing since morning but a cold drink and a pie |
And it rained up the road bout an hour ago but I’ve walked these brogans dry |
But that’s just life our on Interstate 40 but I’m a happy son of a gun |
The governments givin' me Interstate 40 and the good Lord’s give me a thumb |
Now you gotta be careful out on Interstate 40 cause the highway men ain’t dumb |
There’s a law against hikin' out on Interstate 40 so you gotta know who to thumb |
But if you’re like me you wouldn’t mind at all cause what the law calls |
punishment |
Is ninety wonderful days of patching up old Interstate 40 cement |
Oh that’s just life our on Interstate 40… |
Now the world’s my castle and the grass my carpet and my heart is all my own |
The rains my bath and a Interstate 40 is my home sweet home sweet home |
Now when I die just plant me close to where the big trucks whine and moan |
Just anywhere along ole Interstate 40 will rest my weary bones |
Oh that’s just life our on Interstate 40… |
The good Lord’s give me a thumb the good Lord’s give me a thumb |
