[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Thrift store cowboys,
five and dime junkies
Red dirt plowboys, asphalt monkeys
[C]Holy rollers, signal callers
Truck stop [G]angels, backstreet brawlers
Van Zandt groupies, guitar slingers
Hallelujah gospel singers
[C]Freight-train mamas,
mamas, pistol shooters
My [G]first girlfriend works at Hooters
[D]Beans and biscuits in my cupboard
[C]Listen to Ray Wylie Hubbard
We [G]all goin' down,
[C]down the road tonight
[G]

[Verse 2]
[G]Drunken angels, blacktop racers
Holy rollers,
whiskey [C]chasers
Lonestar drinkers, midnight ramblers
[G]Dirt road divas, highway gamblers
Moonshine mamas, panty droppers
Dalai Lamas, ol' pill poppers
[C]High-school heroes, heroes,
back row preachers
[G]Pool hall hustlers, tantric teachers
[D]Teenage [C]cu ties politickin'
Harry Krishna feed me chicken
[G]We all [C]goin' down on the road tonight
[G]

[Verse 3]
[G]Blue jean babies, old heart breakers
I had a party with some quakers
[C]
Heartworn highways, country singers
[G]Radio's full old right-wingers
Session players, duct tape dealers
Outlaw country, hubcap stealers
[C]Ain't no money in my wallet
[G]Broke again is what they call it
[D]My grandmama's name was Spiller
[C]Michael Jackson peaked at Thriller
We [G]all [C]goin' down, down the road tonight,
al[G]right

[G]Jukebox gypsies, Mustang Sally's
Don't go walkin' down dark alleys

horn rimmed glasses
[G]Rhinestone jumpsuit, backstage passes
Blue plate specials, Luanne platters
Japanese is all that matters

Bumper [D]stickers
