The Ballad Of Thunder Road - Robert Mitchum[00:00:00]

Written by：Don Raye/Robert Mitchum[00:00:02]

Now let me tell the story I can tell it all[00:00:04]

About the mountain boy who ran illegal alcohol[00:00:07]

His daddy made the whiskey son he drove the load[00:00:11]

When his engine roared[00:00:14]

They called the highway thunder road[00:00:16]

Sometimes into Ashville sometimes Memphis town[00:00:18]

The revenuers chased him but they couldn't run him down[00:00:22]

Each time they thought they had him[00:00:25]

His engine would explode[00:00:27]

He'd go by like they were standing still on thunder road[00:00:29]

And there was thunder thunder over thunder road[00:00:32]

Thunder was his engine and white lightning was his load[00:00:36]

There was moonshine moonshine to quench the devil's thirst[00:00:40]

The law they swore they'd get him but the devil got him first[00:00:44]

On the first of April nineteen fifty four[00:00:47]

A federal man sent word he'd better make his run no more[00:00:51]

He said two hundred agents were covering the state[00:00:55]

Whichever road he tried to take they'd get him sure as fate[00:00:58]

Son his daddy told him make this run your last[00:01:02]

Your tank is filled with hundred proof[00:01:06]

You're all tuned up and gassed[00:01:08]

Now don't take any chances if you can't get through[00:01:10]

I'd rather have you back again than all that mountain dew[00:01:13]

And there was thunder thunder over thunder road[00:01:17]

Thunder was his engine and white lightning was his load[00:01:21]

There was moonshine moonshine to quench the devil's thirst[00:01:24]

The law they swore they'd get him but the devil got him first[00:01:28]

Roaring out of Harlan revving up his mill[00:01:32]

He shot the gap at Cumberland[00:01:36]

And screamed by Maynardville[00:01:37]

With g men on his taillights roadblocks up ahead[00:01:39]

The mountain boy took roads that even angels feared to tread[00:01:43]

Blazing right through Knoxville out on Kingston pike[00:01:47]

Then right outside of beard on there they made the fatal strike[00:01:51]

He left the road at ninety that's all there is to say[00:01:54]

The devil got the moonshine and the mountain boy that day[00:01:58]

And there was thunder thunder over thunder road[00:02:01]

Thunder was his engine and white lightning was his load[00:02:05]

There was moonshine moonshine to quench the devil's thirst[00:02:08]

The law they swore they'd get him but the devil got him first[00:02:13]

The law they swore they'd get him but the devil got him first[00:02:17]

Thunder thunder thunder road[00:02:21]
