Hey sweet daddy are you ready for me

It's your good rockin' mamma down from Tennessee

There's a speed trap up ahead South of town

But no local yokel's gonna shut me down

And we've come a thousand miles from the guitar town

Nothin' ever happened round my home town

Everybody told me you can't get far

Love to hear the steel belts hummin on the asphalt

Wake up in the middle of the night in a truck stop

Stumble in the restaurant, wonderin' why I don't stop

Well I gptta keep rockin while I still can

Got a two-pack habit and a motel tan

When my boots hit the boards it's a brand new hand

put my back to the risers and make my stand

Hey pretty baby won't you hold me tight
E A
I'm loadin' up and rollin' out of here tonight

One of these days I'm gonna settle down
A E A B A B E
And I'll take you back with me to the guitar town
