Wrong Side of the Road

Put a dead cat on the railroad tracks

When the wolf bains

Bloomin' by the tressel

And get the eyeball of a rooster

And the stones from a ditch

And wash 'em down with bilge water

And you say, "You'll never snitch"Take the buttons from a yellow jacket

The feather from a buzzard

The blood from a bounty hunters cold black heart

Catch the tears of a widow

In a thimble made of glass

Tell your mama and your papa

They can kick your assPoison all the water in the wishin' well

And hang all them scarecrows

From a sycamore tree

Burn down all those honeymoons

Put 'em in a pillow case

And wait next to the switch blades

At the amusement park for meStrangle all the Christmas carols

Scratch out all your prayers

Tie 'em up with barbed wire

And push them down the stairs

And I'll whittle you a pistol

For keepin' nightmares of your blinds

Them son of a bitches always

Seem to sneak up from behindSyphon all the gas

From your daddy's pickup truck

Fill up Johnny's T-bird

I got a couple of bucks

Put a little perfume

And ribbon in your hair

Careful that you don't wake up the houndsTear a bolt of lightnin'

Of the side of the sky

And throw it in the cedar chest

If you want to tell me why

Bring the gear shift knob from a 49 Merc

And lay down here beside me

Let me hold you in the dirtYou're gonna tremble

Tear the throat out of the night

Sink your teeth into my shoulder

Dig your nails into my back

Tell that little girl to let go of my sleeve

You'll be a woman when I catch you

Come baby, fall in love with meWith my double barrel shotgun

And a whole box of shells

We'll celebrate the fourth of July

We'll do 100 M.P.H.

Spendin', someone else's dough

And we'll drive all the way to Reno

On the wrong side of the roadOn the wrong side of the road

On the wrong side of the road

Wrong side of the road

Wrong side of the road

Wrong side of the road
