Loose lips keep him rolling on his whitewall tires Burning out his diesel now, looking like a forest fire Ducktail jiver, common pearl diver Let you have a piece real cheap Those Sunday sermons, gotta start learning How to look before the lion leaps

Sun-soaked, rain-choked I need to get this battery charged Miles behind my parents' time Living in the world's back yard
