C
I was takin' a trip out to L.A.
F
Toolin' along in my Chevrolet
G7 C
Tokin' on a number and diggin' on the radi- o ...
C
Just as I crossed the Mississippi line
F
I heard that highway start to whine
G7 C
And I knew that left rear tire was about to go.
C
Well, the spare was flat and I got uptight
F
'Cause there wasn't a fillin' station in sight
G7
So I just limped on down the shoulder on the rim
C
I went as far as I could and when I stopped the car
F
It was right in front of this little bar
G7
Kind of redneck lookin' joint, called the Dew Drop Inn.
C
Well, I stuffed my hair up under my hat
F
And told the bartender that I had a flat
G7
And would he be kind enough to give me change for a one
C
There was one thing I was sure proud to see
F
There wasn't a soul in the place, 'cept for him and me
G7
And he just looked disgusted and pointed toward the telephone.
C
I called up the station down the road a ways
F
And he said he wasn't very busy today
G7
And he could have somebody there in just 'bout ten minutes or so
C
He said now you just stay right where you're at
F
And I didn't bother tellin' the durn fool
G
I sure as hell didn't have anyplace else to go.
C
I just ordered up a beer and sat down at the bar
F
When some guy walked in and said; "Who owns this car?
G7
With the peace sign, the mag wheels and four on the floor?"
C
Well, he looked at me and I damn near died
F
And I decided that I'd just wait outside
G7
So I laid a dollar on the bar and headed for the door.
C
Just when I thought I'd get outta there with my skin
F
These five big dudes come strollin' in
G
With this one old drunk chick and some fella with green teeth
C
And I was almost to the door when the biggest one
F
Said; "You tip your hat to this lady, son."
G7
And when I did all that hair fell out from underneath.
C
Now the last thing I wanted was to get into a fight
F
In Jackson, Mississippi on a Saturday night
G7
'Specially when there was three of them and only one of me
C
They all started laughin' and I felt kinda sick
