| | | Lyrics: | I pull out the choke, pump hard on the gas
Oh, this wheezin' old bus is complaining.
The
Dungeness winter is blowing its last
It's cold, but for once it's not raining.
"Good
morning, Jennifer, welcome aboard
That's a handsome new jacket you're wearing
Now hustle
up, Carrie, I'm closing the door
And I'll ask you to knock off the
swearing."
CHORUS:
And it's Jimmy Come Lately to Lost Mountain Road
The fog
from the bay will be clearing
I'm crossing Dean Creek with a thirty-kid load
And I'd
rather be nowhere but here.
I can still smell the sweat, hear the cry of the
crowd
And the team on the magazine covers
My wallet was thick, the airports were
loud
Till the Monday I knew it was over
My back had gone out and I lay awake
nights
As I diagrammed plays on the ceiling
All the motel room calls to my long-distance
wife
Made me feel like a junkie caught stealing.
CHORUS
I've seen TV
lights turn a good coach mean
Seen the pressure break a family apart
I grabbed for the
glory, I wore the gold ring
And I barely escaped with my heart
Now Patrick Delaney--I've
seen the kid play
God, he's got the moves and the shooting
He's already talking 'bout
U.C.L.A.
While the agents line up for the looting.
CHORUS
Now Mary and
me, we're a comfortable fit
And the ocean here's running with salmon
Evenings we take a
long walk on the spit
And Sundays sometimes we go clamming
And they still make me offers
and I just turn them down
It's a wonder they bother to find me
I'll leave to Valvano and
Lewis and Brown
The wonders that I left behind me.
