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. BLARINâ 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 OLEâ 17
WHEN A MAN WITH A BLINKINâ RED LIGHT WAS ON OUR TAIL
HE SAID YOU WERE DOINâ 60 IN A 45
BUT IâM GONNA LET YOU GO THIS TIME
BUT IF I CATCH YA AGAIN IâM GONNA SLAP YA IN THE COUNTY JAIL
WE SAID THANK YA SIR ITâS SURE BEEN NICE
AND YOU AINâT GONNA HAVE TO TELL US TWICE
AND WE WERE SOUTH BOUND AND DOWN WITH THE WIND BLOWINâ IN OUR FACE
WE KEPT ON ROLLIN AND PRETTY SOON
THE RADIO WAS COOKINâ OUT A HAGGARD TUNE
AND WE WERE PULLINâ INTO HOUSTON
AND A CHECKINâ OUT ALL THEM PLACES
I WAS FEELINâ 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 ROLLINâ 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 SINGINâ ÎBOUT SUICIDE
I SAID JIM THIS AINâT OUR KIND A PLACE
HE SAID WELL LETâS 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 IâLL 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 AINâT OUR KIND A BAR
LETâS JUST GO ON OUT AND GET BACK IN THE CAR
CAUSE THEREâS GONNA BE TROUBLE AINâT NO SEANCE IN TAKINâ A CHANCE
WE WAS GETTINGâ UP GETTINGâ READY TO LEAVE
SOMEBODY GRABBED OLEâ JIM BY THE SLEEVE
IT WAS THIS GOOD LOOKINâ GIRL SHE WAS ASKINâ MY BUDDY TO DANCE
I SAID JIM DONâT DO IT THEREâS SOMETHINâ MISSINâ
THEREâS FELLERâS DANCINâ AND FELLERâS KISSINâ
THEREâS A FELLER IN HIGH HEEL SHOES WEARINâ PANTYHOSE
HE SAID PARTNER I JUST CANâT TURN THIS DOWN
YOU JUST GO OVER THERE AND HAVE ONE MORE ROUND
IâLL DANCE WITH THE LADY AND WEâLL GET ON DOWN THE ROAD

SO HE WALKED AWAY AND LEFT ME ALONE
AND THIS FUNNY LOOKINâ FELLER KEPT COMINâ ON
AND HE WAS MAKINâ ME MAD AT SOME OF THE THINGS HE SAID
WELL THEN HE PUT HIS HAND ON MY KNEE
I SAID IF YOU DONâT GET YOUR PAW OFF ME
IâM 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 DONâT GIVE UP WITHOUT A FIGHT
THEY WERE SCREAMINâ AND YELLIN AND SCRACTINâ AND CLAWINâ
I WAS PUNCINâ AND HITTINâ AND KICKINâ AND PAWINâ
I WAS HOLDIN MY OWN CAUSE IâVE BEEN IN A SCRAP OR TWO
OLE JIM COME RUNNINâ UP OUTTA THE BLUE
AND THAT GAL HE WAS WITH CAME RUNNINâ 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 FIGHTINâ 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 GOINâ DOWN THE HIGHWAY DOINâ ÎBOUT A HUNDERED AND TEN
WE WAS HEADED FOR HOME AND WE WAS GETTINGâ NEAR IT
THEN A RED LIGHT CAME ON IN THE REARVIEW MIRROW
AND THAT SAME BLAMED COP WAS PULLINâ US OVER AGAIN
WELL IâM SETTINâ 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 DRINKINâ IâVE GIVE UP BARS
AND RUNNINâ ROUND THE COUNTRY IN SOUPED UP CARS
GOINâ BACK TO WHERE THE WOMEN ARE WOMEN AND THE MEN ARE MEN
