Truckstop Salvation Lyrics


Straight-laced, leather-faced

He rolled in like he owned the two-bit town

Dollar bills bulging from his bell-bottomed jeans

The population, they gathered 'round


Nothing this exciting since a fertilizer truck

Blew a front tire and landed in the creek

Everybody talkin', everybody strainin'

Tryin' to get a little peek


It's just the world they'll never know, not a country fair sideshow

Reality they'll somehow never see

He's what they've tried to kill with their Bibles and their stills

But he's not weird, just a man that's bein' free


Payin' for the gas, he quickly shouted thanks

And continued on his journey all once again

Just about the time a siren fast-approached

And the pot-bellied sheriff, he whizzed right in


With his self-inflicted grammar, started shoutin' accusations

At the long-haired greasy looking ape

While a local D.J. from the fifty-watt station

Got the whole damn thing on tape


It's just the world they'll never know, not a country fair sideshow

Reality they'll somehow never see

He's what they've tried to kill with their Bibles and their stills

But he's not weird, just a man that's bein' free


The holy roller preacher told the eager congregation

That the devil had passed right through their nest

But the teenage girls with their locks in curls

Were a-talkin' 'bout that hair upon his chest


Now the kids got their cookies while the preacher saved some souls

And the story spread to everyone in sight

Commotion was the word and everybody heard

He was gone before the night


It's just the world they'll never know, not a country fair sideshow

Reality they'll somehow never see

He's what they've tried to kill with their Bibles and their stills

But he's not weird, just a man that's bein' free

Bubbles Up

When this world starts a-reelin' from that pressure drop feelin', We're just treading water each day, There's a way to feel better, be well set to weather, The storms 'til the sun shines again, When your compass is spinnin' and you're lost on the way, Like a leaf in the wind, friend, hear me when I …

Miss You So Badly

I guess it all blew up in Missoula, There just was no other way, After months of goin' crazy, There was nothin' left to say, But when the dust had finally settled, And the air had quickly cleared, Things were better off than I had feared, And I miss you so badly, well, I love you madly, Feelin' so s…

A Pirate Looks at Forty

Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call, Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall, You've seen it all, you've seen it all, Watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam, And in your belly, you hold the treasures few have ever seen, Most of 'em dream, most of 'em drea…

Margaritaville

Nibblin' on sponge cake, watchin' the sun bake, All of those tourists covered with oil, Strummin' my six-string on my front porch swing, Smell those shrimp, they're beginnin' to boil, Wastin' away again in Margaritaville, Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt, Some people claim that there's a woman t…

University of Bourbon Street feat. Preservation Hall Jazz Band

I guess the point of goin' to college, Was to acquire myself a little knowledge, And help me figure out, What life was really all about, It made Peets and J.D. happy, And set me wild and free, Then I danced out of Mississippi, To the University of Bourbon Street, I sang, "Hey Pocky A-way", On the st…
