Dust and Dieselsmoke Lyrics by Bourbon Boys

Hail to the Chief

2013

[Verse 1]
It takes a lot to be a country rebel outlaw
And I've given all to be just that
My right hand is stiffening the Nashville Claw
And my head is aching underneath the hat
I feel the weight of many thousand hard-earned miles
Take a heavy toll upon my bones
It’s been a long time since I got to see you smile
And the way I live is painfully alone
[Chorus]
There's dust and diesel smoke on the highway
It takes my weary soul out the truck, it's bound to roll
Dust and diesel smoke on the highway
And I’m about to choke on the dust and diesel smoke
[Verse 2]
I was born a renegade, a renegade I'll die
And stand trial for the choices I make
When I'm done just let my rovin' spirit fly
Back home to my baby in the shade
You haven't seen the places that my eyes have seen
A rambling guitar picker by God's grace
I yearn to feel the spring of mountain water wash me clean
And wipe away the road dust from my face
[Chorus]
There's dust and diesel smoke on the highway
It takes my weary soul out the truck, it's bound to roll
Dust and diesel smoke on the highway
And I’m about to choke on the dust and diesel smoke
Dust and diesel smoke, yeah
