UNEASY RIDER 88
THE CHARLIE DANIELS BAND
ME AND MY BUDDY GOT US A WILD HAIR
AND FIGURED WE WANTED TO GO SOME WHERE
SO WE LOADED UP MY RAGTOP CHEVROLET
WE HADVERY LITTLE MONEY AND A WHOLE LOT OF SHOW
AND WITH JR. BLARIN� ON THE RADIO
WE GOT A TANK FULL OF GAS AND WE WERE ON OUR WAY
WE FIGURED WE GO DOWN TO NEW ORLEANS
WE WERE BARROLIN DOWN OLE� 17
WHEN A MAN WITH A BLINKIN� RED LIGHT WAS ON OUR TAIL
HE SAID YOU WERE DOIN� 60 IN A 45
BUT I�M GONNA LET YOU GO THIS TIME
BUT IF I CATCH YA AGAIN I�M GONNA SLAP YA IN THE COUNTY JAIL
WE SAID THANK YA SIR IT�S SURE BEEN NICE
AND YOU AIN�T GONNA HAVE TO TELL US TWICE
AND WE WERE SOUTH BOUND AND DOWN WITH THE WIND BLOWIN� IN OUR FACE
WE KEPT ON ROLLIN AND PRETTY SOON
THE RADIO WAS COOKIN� OUT A HAGGARD TUNE
AND WE WERE PULLIN� INTO HOUSTON
AND A CHECKIN� OUT ALL THEM PLACES
I WAS FEELIN� DRY AND I SAID I THINK
WE OUGHTA STOP AND GET OURSELVES A DRINK
AND OLE JIM SAID YEAH BUT WE GOT TIME TO KILL
WE KEPT ON ROLLIN� AND I SEEN THIS SPOT
WE PULLED INTO THE PARKING LOT
OF THIS PLACE CALLED THE CLOUD 9 BAR AND GRILL
WE WALKED THROUGH THE DOOR AND THE PLACE WAS JAMMED
THE LIGHTS WERE LOW THEY HAD A PUNK ROCK BAND
AND SOME ORANGE HARIED FELLOW SINGIN� �BOUT SUICIDE
I SAID JIM THIS AIN�T OUR KIND A PLACE
HE SAID WELL LET�S JUST HAVE ONE ROUND ANYWAY
SO AGAINST MY BETTER JUDGEMENT WE WALKED ON INSIDE
WENT UP TO THE BAR AND WE SET DOWN
THIS FELLOW WALKED UP AND SIAD I�LL BUY THIS ROUND
AND HE SET DOWN ON THE BARSTOOL NEXT TO JIM
HE LOOKED LIKE A GIRL BUT HE TALKED LIKE A GUY
HAD LIPSTICK ON AND MASSCAREA IN HIS EYE
AND EVERYBODY IN THAT PLACE LOOKED JUST ABOUT LIKE HIM
I SAID JIM THIS AIN�T OUR KIND A BAR
LET�S JUST GO ON OUT AND GET BACK IN THE CAR
CAUSE THERE�S GONNA BE TROUBLE AIN�T NO SEANCE IN TAKIN� A CHANCE
WE WAS GETTING� UP GETTING� READY TO LEAVE
SOMEBODY GRABBED OLE� JIM BY THE SLEEVE
IT WAS THIS GOOD LOOKIN� GIRL SHE WAS ASKIN� MY BUDDY TO DANCE
I SAID JIM DON�T DO IT THERE�S SOMETHIN� MISSIN�
THERE�S FELLER�S DANCIN� AND FELLER�S KISSIN�
THERE�S A FELLER IN HIGH HEEL SHOES WEARIN� PANTYHOSE
HE SAID PARTNER I JUST CAN�T TURN THIS DOWN
YOU JUST GO OVER THERE AND HAVE ONE MORE ROUND
I�LL DANCE WITH THE LADY AND WE�LL GET ON DOWN THE ROAD
SO HE WALKED AWAY AND LEFT ME ALONE
AND THIS FUNNY LOOKIN� FELLER KEPT COMIN� ON
AND HE WAS MAKIN� ME MAD AT SOME OF THE THINGS HE SAID
WELL THEN HE PUT HIS HAND ON MY KNEE
I SAID IF YOU DON�T GET YOUR PAW OFF ME
I�M GONNA LOCATE YOUR NOSE AROUND ON THE SIDE OF YOUR HEAD
HE SAID I LOVE IT WHEN YA GET THAT FIRE IN YOUR EYE
I SAID WELL PARTNER TRY THIS ON FOR SIZE
AND I UNLOADED ON HIM HE WENT OUT LIKE A LIGHT
EVERYBODY IN THAT PLACE MUST A BEEN HIS FRIEND
THEY ALL HEADED FOR ME I SAID THIS IS THE END
BUT WHERE I COME FROM WE DON�T GIVE UP WITHOUT A FIGHT
THEY WERE SCREAMIN� AND YELLIN AND SCRACTIN� AND CLAWIN�
I WAS PUNCIN� AND HITTIN� AND KICKIN� AND PAWIN�
I WAS HOLDIN MY OWN CAUSE I�VE BEEN IN A SCRAP OR TWO
OLE JIM COME RUNNIN� UP OUTTA THE BLUE
AND THAT GAL HE WAS WITH CAME RUNNIN� UP TO
AND PROCEEDED TO BEAT ON ME WITH A HIGH HEEL SHOE
I GRABBED HER BY THE HAIR IT COME OFF IN MY HAND
AND BEAUTIFUL GIRL WAS JUST A BEAUTIFUL MAN
AN OLE JIM JUST GOT SICK RIGHT THERE ON THE FLOOR
HE DROPPED THAT DUDE LIKE A SHOT FROM A GUN
SMEARED HIS LIPSTICK MADE HIS MAKE UP RUN
AND ME AN OLE JIM STARTED FIGHTIN� OUR WAY TO THE DOOR
MAN WE LIT OUT A THERE IN THAT CHEVROLET
AND I PUT HER ON THE FLOOR AND SHE STAYED THAT WAY
WE WAS GOIN� DOWN THE HIGHWAY DOIN� �BOUT A HUNDERED AND TEN
WE WAS HEADED FOR HOME AND WE WAS GETTING� NEAR IT
THEN A RED LIGHT CAME ON IN THE REARVIEW MIRROW
AND THAT SAME BLAMED COP WAS PULLIN� US OVER AGAIN
WELL I�M SETTIN� HERE IN THIS COUNTY JAIL
I HAD TO CALL MY DADDY TO GO OUR BAIL
BUT I LEARNED ME A LESSON THAT I NEVER WILL FORGET AGAIN
I DONE GIVE UP DRINKIN� I�VE GIVE UP BARS
AND RUNNIN� ROUND THE COUNTRY IN SOUPED UP CARS
GOIN� BACK TO WHERE THE WOMEN ARE WOMEN AND THE MEN ARE MEN
