E
Hey sweet daddy are you ready for me
A
It's your good rockin' mamma down from Tennessee
B
Well I'm just outta Austin bound for San Antone
A
With the radio blastin' and the bird dog on
E
There's a speed trap up ahead South of town
A
But no local yokel's gonna shut me down
B
Cause me and the boys got this rig unwound
A E A B A B E
And we've come a thousand miles from the guitar town
E
Nothin' ever happened round my home town
A
And I ain't the kind to just hang around
B
But I heard someone callin' my name one day
A
And I followed that voice down the lost highway
E
Everybody told me you can't get far
E A
on $37 and a Jap guitar
B
Now I'm smokin into Texas with the hammer down
A E A B A B E
And a rockin' little combo from the guitar town
B
Hey pretty baby don't you know it ain't my fault
A E
Love to hear the steel belts hummin on the asphalt
B
Wake up in the middle of the night in a truck stop
A B
Stumble in the restaurant, wonderin' why I don't stop
E
Well I gptta keep rockin while I still can
A
Got a two-pack habit and a motel tan
B
When my boots hit the boards it's a brand new hand
A
put my back to the risers and make my stand
E
Hey pretty baby won't you hold me tight
E A
I'm loadin' up and rollin' out of here tonight
B
One of these days I'm gonna settle down
A E A B A B E
And I'll take you back with me to the guitar town
