I work for the county out on 95 All day I hold a red flag and watch the traffic pass me by In my head I keep a picture of a pretty little miss Someday, mister, I’m gonna lead a better life than this Working on the highway, laying down the blacktop Working on the highway, all day long I don’t stop Working on the highway, blasting through the bedrock Working on the highway, working on the highway ---

Everyone I know, everywhere I go People need some reason to believe I don’t know about anyone but me If it takes all night, that’ll be all right If I can get you to smile before I leave Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels I don’t know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feels Look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me through Looking into their eyes I see them running too Running on, running on empty Running on, running blind Running on, running into the sun But I’m running behind Honey you really tempt me You know the way you look so kind I’d love to stick around but I’m running behind You know I don’t even know what I’m hoping to find Running into the sun but I’m running behind ---

Come on all of you big strong men Uncle Sam needs your help again He’s got himself in a terrible jam Way down yonder in Vietnam So put down your books and pick up a gun We’re gonna have a whole lotta fun! And it’s one, two, three, what are we fighting for? Don’t ask me I don’t give a damn Next stop is Vietnam And it’s five, six, seven, open up the pearly gates Well there ain’t no time to wonder why Whoopee! we’re all gonna die Come on generals, let’s move fast Your big chance has come at last Gotta go out and get those reds The only good commie is the one that’s dead You know that peace can only be won When we’ve blown 'em all to kingdom come And it’s one, two, three, what are we fighting for? Don’t ask me I don’t give a damn Next stop is Vietnam And it’s five, six, seven, open up the pearly gates Well there ain’t no time to wonder why Whoopee! we’re all gonna die Come on Wall Street, don’t move slow Why man, this is war au-go-go There’s plenty good money to be made Supplying the Army with the tools of the trade Just hope and pray that if they drop the bomb, They drop it on the Viet Cong And it’s one, two, three, what are we fighting for? Don’t ask me I don’t give a damn Next stop is Vietnam And it’s five, six, seven, open up the pearly gates Well there ain’t no time to wonder why Whoopee! we’re all gonna die ---

All at once, the moon clouded over, We heard a gurgling cry. A few seconds later, the captain’s helmet Was all that floated by. The Sergeant said, “Turn around men! I’m in charge from now on.” And we just made it out of the Big Muddy With the captain dead and gone. We stripped and dived and found his body Stuck in the old quicksand. I guess he didn’t know that the water was deeper Than the place he’d once before been. Another stream had joined the Big Muddy 'Bout a half mile from where we’d gone. We were lucky to escape from the Big Muddy When the big fool said to push on. Well, I’m not going to point any moral; I’ll leave that for yourself Maybe you’re still walking, you’re still talking You’d like to keep your health. But every time I read the papers That old feeling comes on; We’re – waist deep in the Big Muddy And the big fool says to push on. Waist deep in the Big Muddy And the big fool says to push on. Waist deep in the Big Muddy And the big fool says to push on. Waist deep! Neck deep! Soon even a Tall man’ll be over his head, we’re Waist deep in the Big Muddy! And the big fool says to push on! ---

Oh I marched to the battle of New Orleans At the end of the early British war The young land started growing The young blood started flowing But I ain’t marchin’ anymore For I’ve killed my share of Indians In a thousand different fights I was there at the Little Big Horn I heard many men lying I saw many more dying But I ain’t marchin’ anymore It’s always the old to lead us to the war It’s always the young to fall Now look at all we’ve won with the saber and the gun Tell me is it worth it all ---

When Stagger Lee had drunk his fill of moonlight He turned his burnin’ eyes upon my soul “It’s time, by God, to spend this night with someone else”, he said. “Squeeze a little pleasure from the gold” (love & glory, children) We can take it easy when we’re old. He said, “We’ll take us into town, lay our money down I’ll bring you to the sweetest thing that grows Because the fairest ones in sight are bloomin’ every night at a tavern Called the Sabre and the Rose.” ---

Someone fell across me Regretting their honesty Shook away the cautious care Looked right though me like I wasn’t there River came to meet me Relationships can be like water Deep but shallow, the popular bed Springs to mind my undetected closure You’ll only scratch the surface If you bounce around like an atom ball Oh yeah, oh yeah, it’s nice up there Be a lighthouse Don’t block out your view Take this daring leap Wake, you’ve been asleep Go attack your life The paint is peeling Scrape to save what’s yours Someone fell across me Regretting their honesty Shook away the cautious care Looked right though me like I wasn’t there Don’t block out your view… ---

Little precious has a natural obsession For temptation but he just can’t see She gives him loving that his body can’t handle But all he can say is “Baby, it’s good to me.” One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror But he doesn’t recognize his own face His health is fading and he doesn’t know why Three letters took him to his final resting place Y’all don’t hear me ---
