作词 : Crowell | |
I put away fifteen grand doing one-night stands mostly liquor stores and fillin' stations | |
Me and this peepin' | |
Tom by the name of | |
J.D. Swan and any number of his odd blood relations | |
This was armed robbery 1957 and mostly our getaways were clean | |
Then I'd pay off the boys and bury my bread out on | |
Highway 17 | |
I had five kids and a wife with one dress and a yard full of cars that wouldn't running | |
My two oldest boys they were on to my noise they despised what their daddy done | |
But I did my thing the best | |
I could maing plans by the light of day | |
And then night would fall and it was time to call and | |
I was always on my way | |
Now J.D. he was crazy and he was inbred he drank whiskey like it was goin' out of style | |
You know I should have seen it coming the writing was on the wall he was getting just a little too loose and wild | |
Annd he made his mistake out on | |
Airline Drive, you know those | |
North Houston cops are quick | |
They blew a hole in | |
J.D. the size of | |
Dallas and put a lump on my head with the brunt of a nightstick | |
You know 5-10 in | |
Huntsville ain't no good times boys but | |
I walked that line do you know what | |
I mean'Cause my mind was snug on that hole | |
I dug out on | |
Highway 17 | |
I said my mind was snug on that hole | |
I dug out on | |
Highway 17 | |
So I served my time only way | |
I knew how thinking big and making plans | |
All about the way | |
I was gonna change the world when | |
I get my hands on that 15 grand | |
You know C. | |
W. and Herschel my two oldest boys they took care of their momma and their little sisters the best way that they could | |
Dealing dimes and stealing hubcaps you know pretty soon they were doing good | |
So I walked out those prison gates a free man on the first day of | |
November 19 and '63 | |
I kissed my wife and | |
I hugged my babies but they didn't seem the same to me | |
You know the boys looked on they were already grown it was written across their eyes and their faces | |
I'm the perfect sample of a bad example gone forever from their graces | |
But baby six long years and a lot can change many miles beyond your wildest dreams | |
But a six-lane wide modern interstate ride out on | |
Highway 17 | |
Lord they sunk my ship 'neath a concrete strip out on | |
Highway 17 | |
Man they broke my back they built a concrete track out on | |
Highway 17 | |
Well, you know it ain't funny but they buried my money out on | |
Highway 17 |
