[verse 1]
there was an old chickasaw boy from up in tall-ssee
making wine out of water, what a sight to see
he never went to church on a sunday afternoon
he was always chokin’ on chew, spittin’ up the liquor
said “the devil may care but i’m still quicker”
’til you know one day that race got finally run

[chorus 1]
that old f-100 doin’ ninety on the 280 byway
never slowed for sylacauga hit the horseshoe bend before day
he hid a little money in a hole by the tallapoosa river
said “i’m goin’ up north where the tall trees shiver”
it’s a hard road before you get back home

[verse 2]
she took the black out the berry and swizzled the juice
she took the rich boys home for her particular use
she wanted something free, you got to get out and get it yourself
baby liked to drive because she didn’t like runnin’
thought all them i-o-u’s, it wasn’t comin’
’til one day she knew she had to be anywhere else

[chorus 2]
yeah, east texas don’t feel so big when you’re [?] up small town
just a little time south of the border ’til the whole thing cools down
she had a little trouble crossing over at the rio grande
that’s a mighty big river with some mighty hot sand
it’s a hard road before you get back home

[verse 3]
old moses stood up on the barroom floor
just screamin’ and a-shoutin’ with a two-by-four
such a high holy terror carolina hadn’t ever seen
yeah pound-for-pound that boy’s [trouble?] size
you know his money talked but it usually lied
buddy, it ain’t fair but even bad dogs get their day

[chorus 3]
she’d pick ’em up some days and b-tch about the gentlemen downtown
just wind ’em up a little ‘fore she’d finally go and straighten ’em out
he had a little heaven in the shade by the nolichucky river
what the lord don’t see the lord don’t remember
it’s a hard road before you get back home
oh it’s a hard road before you get back home
