IDLE DAYS DRIVE From the 2002 release "Over Cloud Nine" |
|
Words and music by Danny Johnson
My mama would drag us out of bed still in a haze guitars ringing in my
head
Big brother was the king of the flock We took that bus in a daze
Didn't want to stop Big Bob like to fight
Little Dave got too high Did a little bit of everything
On Idledays drive Daddy workin' hard, mama pushin' God
Big brown house sat on a hilltop Best friend Charlie he lived up the
street
Sexy little Jane had us all on our knees And oh oh, you can hear the train rollin'
We'd run down by the river jump off the highest ridge
On Idledays drive Back in those Idledays Play a little guitar for ya mama
Mama died it seemed the other day I was in Tennessee headed to LA
Got my bags down to Louisiana hung with my brothers
I ran with my friends oooh you can hear the train rollin'
It reminds me of mama her old spirit still a blowin'
Down Idle days drive back in those Idledays
Cousin Walt on the fiddle black dog on a hill
And the way a young girl feels sing sweet sister
