[00:00:00] Uneasy Rider (Live) - Br5-49 [00:00:01] Written by:Charlie Daniels [00:00:23] I was takin' a trip out to LA [00:00:25] Toolin' along in my cheverolet [00:00:27] Tokin' on a number and diggin' on the radio [00:00:30] Just as I crossed the Mississippi line [00:00:32] I heard that highway start to whine [00:00:34] And I knew that left rear tire was about to blow [00:00:37] Well the spare was flat and I got uptight [00:00:38] Cause there wasn't a filling station in sight [00:00:40] So I just limped on down the shoulder on the rim [00:00:44] I went as far as I could and when I stopped the car [00:00:45] It was right in front of this little bar [00:00:47] Kind of a red neck lookin' joint called the dew drop inn [00:00:57] I stuffed my hair up under my hat [00:00:58] And told the bartender that I had a flat [00:01:00] And would he be kind enough to give me change for a one [00:01:03] There was one thing I was sure proud to see [00:01:05] There wasn't a soul in the place except for him and me [00:01:07] He just looked disgusted and pointed toward the telephone [00:01:10] I called up the station down the road away [00:01:12] He said he wasn't very busy today [00:01:13] And he could have someone about 10 minutes or so [00:01:17] He said now you just stay right where your at [00:01:19] But I didn't bother to tell the darn fool [00:01:20] I sure as hell didn't have anyplace else to go [00:01:24] I just ordered up a beer and sat down at the bar [00:01:26] When some guy walked in and said [00:01:26] Who owns this car with the peace sign [00:01:28] The mag wheels and the four on the floor [00:01:31] He looked at me and I damn near died [00:01:32] And I decided that I'd just wait outside [00:01:34] So I laid a dollar on the bar and headed for the door [00:01:44] Just when I thought I'd get outta there with my skin [00:01:45] These 5 big dudes come strolling in [00:01:47] With one old drunk chick and some fella with green teeth [00:01:50] I was almost to the door when the biggest one [00:01:52] Said you tip your hat to this lady son [00:01:53] And when I did all that hair fell out from underneath [00:01:57] Now the last thing I wanted was to get a fight [00:01:59] In Jackson Mississippi on a Saturday night [00:02:00] Especially when there was three of them and only one of me [00:02:04] They all started laughing and I felt kinda sick [00:02:05] And I knew I better think of something pretty quick [00:02:07] I just reached out and kicked old green teeth right in the knee [00:02:10] He let out a yell that'd curl your hair [00:02:12] But before he moved I grabbed me a chair and said [00:02:14] Watch him folks 'cause he's a thoroughly dangerous man [00:02:17] I said you may not know it but this man is a spy [00:02:19] He's a undercover agent for the FBI [00:02:20] He's been sent down here to infiltrate the Ku Klux Klan [00:02:24] He was still bent over holding on to his knee [00:02:26] But everybody else was looking and listening to me [00:02:27] And I laid it on thicker and heavier as I went [00:02:30] I said would you believe this man has gone as far [00:02:32] As tearing Wallace stickers off the bumpers of cars [00:02:34] And he voted for George McGovern for president [00:02:37] He's a friend of them long haired hippy type pinko fags [00:02:39] I betchya he's even got a commie flag [00:02:41] Tacked up on the wall inside of his garage [00:02:44] He's a snake in the grass I tell ya guys [00:02:46] He may look dumb but that's just a disguise [00:02:48] He's a mastermind in the ways of espionage [00:02:57] They all started looking real suspicious at him [00:02:59] He jumped up and said now just wait a minute Jim [00:03:01] You know he's lying I been living here all of my life [00:03:03] I'm a faithful follower of brother John Birch [00:03:05] And I belong to the Antioch baptist church [00:03:07] And I ain't even got a garage [00:03:09] You can call home and ask my wife [00:03:10] Then he started saying somethin' 'bout the way I was dressed [00:03:12] But I didn't wait around to hear the rest [00:03:14] I was too busy moving and hoping I didn't run outta luck
