《The Road》歌词

[00:08:30] Well my name's John Lee Pettimore

[00:08:30] Same as my daddy and his daddy before

[00:08:30] You hardly ever saw granddaddy down here

[00:08:30] He only came to town about twice a year

[00:08:30] He'd buy a hundred pounds of yeast and some copper line

[00:08:30] Everybody knew that he made moonshine

[00:08:30] Now the revenue man wanted granddaddy bad

[00:08:30] He headed up the holler with everything he had

[00:08:30] Before my time but I've been told

[00:08:30] He never came back from Copperhead Road

[00:08:30] Now daddy ran the whiskey in a big block Dodge

[00:08:30] Bought it at an auction at the Mason's Lodge

[00:08:30] Johnson County Sheriff painted on the side

[00:08:30] Just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside

[00:08:30] Well him and my uncle tore that engine down

[00:08:30] I still remember that rumblin' sound

[00:08:30] Well the sheriff came around in the middle of the night

[00:08:30] Heard mama cryin', knew something wasn't right

[00:08:30] He was headed down to Knoxville with the weekly load

[00:08:30] You could smell the whiskey burnin' down Copperhead Road

[00:08:30] I volunteered for the army on my birthday

[00:08:30] They draft the white trash first, 'round here anyway

[00:08:30] I done two tours of duty in Vietnam

[00:08:30] And I came home with a brand new plan

[00:08:30] I'll take the seed from Colombia and Mexico

[00:08:30] I'll just plant it up the holler down Copperhead Road

[00:08:30] Well the D. E. A. 's got a chopper in the air

[00:08:30] I wake up screaming like I'm back over there

[00:08:30] I learned a thing or two from old Charlie don't you know

[00:08:30] You better stay away from Copperhead Road

[00:08:30] Copperhead Road

[00:08:30] Copperhead Road

[00:08:30] Copperhead Road
