Drive-by Truckers Goode's Field Road
Honey, take care of the children, make them do as
theyre told
I got a meeting in the morning down at the end of the
Goodes Field Road
Nothing much for a man in my position
A man like me dont last too long in prison
And all those friends down at Police Department
will act like they never had anything to do with me
Started out down at the junk yard taking orders from a
moron
And a man my size dont like taking orders from anyone
Bought myself an old beat up wrecker, built an empire
with my labor brains and sweat
But its hard to make an honest living and a man takes
any help he gets
Nothing much for a man in my position, a second
mortgage and three
college kids tuition and all them friends that I helped
along the way
Will act like they never had anything to do with me
But you and me, we had us some good times and Ive
always been a family
man deep down. Aint much a believer of hiring work from
out of state
but theyll be asking questions when Im found. Theyll be
asking
questions when Im found
Honey, take care of the children, pay the house off
when the salvage yard gets sold
And you dont know nothing when the insurance man asks
questions
Bout what went down at the Goodes Field Road
