"Greenville To Baton Rouge" lyrics - DRIVE-BY TRUCKERS

One more night, one more show
Four down, eighty-four to go
This ain't no time for moving slow

Greenville to Baton Rouge
I'll call you up when I get through
The life I live is the life I choose
Greenville to Baton Rouge

The shows have sure been great this year
All eight cylinders, all twelve gears
Call you up when I touch down
At the airport in a Louisiana town

Street survivors, feeling no pain
A little more rock, a little less cocaine
And don't forget about Stevie Gaines

Greenville to Baton Rouge
I'll call you up when I get through
If it's the last thing that I do
Greenville to Baton Rouge

Last night, you should have seen this plane
The right engine shot a twelve-foot flame
But South Carolina made us glad we came
Now we're up in the air again

Once we hit Louisiana, baby, I don't care
Got a brand new airplane waiting for us there
Give this piece of shit back to Aerosmith
Wake me up when we get there

The right engine gave a little flash
The pilot panicked and dumped the gas
Everything is quiet, we're dropping fast
When we touch down, gonna whup his ass

Greenville to Baton Rouge
Can't die now, got a show to do
The life I live is the life I choose
Greenville to Baton Rouge
