Goode's Field Road Lyrics


Drive-by Truckers Goode's Field Road


Honey, take care of the children, make them do as
they’re told
I got a meeting in the morning down at the end of the
Goode’s Field Road
Nothing much for a man in my position
A man like me don’t last too long in prison
And all those friends down at Police Department
will act like they never had anything to do with me

Started out down at the junk yard taking orders from a
moron
And a man my size don’t like taking orders from anyone
Bought myself an old beat up wrecker, built an empire
with my labor brains and sweat
But it’s hard to make an honest living and a man takes
any help he gets

Nothing much for a man in my position, a second
mortgage and three
college kids’ tuition and all them friends that I helped
along the way
Will act like they never had anything to do with me

But you and me, we had us some good times and I’ve
always been a family
man deep down. Ain’t much a believer of hiring work from
“out of state”
but they’ll be asking questions when I’m found. They’ll be
asking
questions when I’m found

Honey, take care of the children, pay the house off
when the salvage yard gets sold
And you don’t know nothing when the insurance man asks
questions
Bout what went down at the Goode’s Field Road
