As I came across the Pecos and broke west of the line
This thunderstorm was runnin' and it ran me out of time
I was racin' through the rain with this rig from Tennessee
When a voice cut through the static, bringin' comfort home to me

They were singin'
"I ain't sittin' in no shack, I got me a Ford right out the back
So come on and roll me over if I ain't there in nothin' flat
With a honky-tonk attitude, I'll be doin' the straight line swing
C'mon and grab your horseshoe and throw it in the ring"

Now the levee wall was breakin', rocks were rollin' from the ridge
The announcer broke in sayin', "There's a bus trapped on the bridge"
So I turned my rig around, I was axle-deep in mud
And I found those people stranded, the bridge was groanin' in the flood

Still my radio was singin'
"I ain't sittin' in no shack, I got me a Ford right out the back
So come on and roll me over if I ain't there in nothin' flat
With a honky-tonk attitude, I'll be doin' the straight line swing
C'mon and grab your horseshoe and throw it in the ring"

With the grindin' of my engine, I hauled those people free
With the ragin' river risin', the driver came thankin' me

The storm knocked out the radio tower late last Saturday night"

But through the static we heard singin'
"I ain't sittin' in no shack, well I got me a Ford right out the back
So come on and roll me over if I ain't there in nothin' flat
With a honky-tonk attitude, I'll be doin' the straight line swing
C'mon and grab your horseshoe and throw it in the ring"

Them old truckers gonna tell you down the lonely interstate
Out the dead air on the waveband, the Texas Playboys break
You'll hear a keenin' voice, "Bob Wills is with you as you drive"
You'll know you got a broadcast straight from 1935

Can you hear him singin'?
"I ain't sittin' in no shack, I got me a Ford right out the back
So come on and roll me over if I ain't there in nothin' flat
With a honky-tonk attitude, I'll be doin' the straight line swing
C'mon and grab your horseshoe and throw it in the ring"

"I ain't sittin' in no shack, babe, I got me a Ford right out the back
So come on and roll me over if I ain't there in nothin' flat
With a honky-tonk attitude, I'll be doin' the straight line swing
C'mon and grab your horseshoe, throw it in the ring"
