Jake |
The boy gets crazy when he’s sittin' at the bar |
Don’t you mess with Jake, don’t you push him too far |
Rotgut whiskey and homemade wine |
Make a good country boy just lose his mind |
Like a runaway train rollin' through the night |
The boy ain’t got no fear |
Like a race car hittin' the wall it gets hard to steer |
Waitin' for the smoke to clear |
Betty got caught in the back of Bobby’s car |
Bobby got caught with his hand in the cookie jar |
Her daddy blew a fuse and he went for his gun |
Now Bobby and Betty, they’re on the run |
Like a runaway train, rollin' throught the night |
Nothin’s gonna stop them now |
Gotta keep on moving, cover their tracks somehow |
Like a runaway train rollin' through the night |
The kids ain’t got no fear |
Daddy swears, «'Bang' is the last sound Bobby’s gonna hear» |
Waitin' for the smoke to clear |
Daddy finally caught 'em and he emptied his gun |
Put a dead end to all of Bobby’s fun |
Good God Almighty for Heaven’s sakes |
Betty’s daddy he turned out to be Jake |
Like a runaway train rollin' through the night |
Jake ain’t got no fear |
No hangman judge gonna give the boy 99 years |
Here sits Jake in the back of this bar |
Sippin' on an ice cold beer |
If the law had a clue all they’d do is look right here |
And they’d see Jake |
Waitin' for the smoke to clear |
Waitin' for |
