On the Road Lyrics by Rattlesnake Milk

Chicken Fried Snake

0

Mama get high, early in the mornin', mama do a little bit o' weed
She drink a little beer, do a little whiskey, mama do anything she need
She gonna play a show, up in Amarillo, make a little money with the boys
She gon' get high, higher than the devil, every time she hear him makin' noise

But she was on the road
Mama made a livin' on the road
She was on the road
Mama made her livin' on the road

Mama get dressed up, do a little make up, rhinestone
And silver on her waist
She rollin' through the ballroom, everybody lookin', everybody wanna get a taste
Turquoise diamonds wrapped around her finger, make a little money with the boys
She gon' get high, higher than the devil, every time she hear him makin' noise

But she was on the road
Mama made a livin' on the road
She was on the road
Mama made her livin' on the road

And when the lights were on, everyone around was just a cryin' along and she was gone

Mama get drunk, drivin' down the highway, feel the wind blowin' in her hair
Bus driver talkin', ain't nobody listenin', don't seem like anybody care
18 wheel comin' flyin' down from Denver, fell asleep drinkin' at the wheel
Mama gettin' high, flyin' up the heaven, feel her body hangin' in the steel

She was on the road
Mama died layin' on the road
She was on the road
Mama died layin' on the road

And when the news was on, everyone around was just cryin' along, she was gone
