Rattlesnake Ridge

Rattlesnake Ridge, five miles long
I'm gonna run it all night long

Gotta get to Gs bend, runnin' out of time
Just ran a blockade 'round the Dallas county line
Law man's gaining ground, round the boxachetA bridge
Doing what my daddy done
And what his daddy did

From a long line of shiners beating down the blacktop
Won't stop till I'm dead and gone
Ain't a road I don't know or been down
Like the one I'm a turning on
Rattlesnake Ridge 5 miles long
I'm gonna run it all night long

Took the ferry into Camden
Only way to get to town
Sheriffs waiting at the landing
Ain't a way to turn around
So I jumped the Alabama river
Left the Chevy loaded down
Waited in the water till my feet could hit the ground
Turned em on when I heard em turning loosen of the Hounds

From a long line of shiners beating down the blacktop
Won't stop till I'm dead and gone
Ain't a road I don't know or been down
Like the one I'm a turning on
Rattlesnake Ridge 5 miles long
I'm gonna run it all night long

Made a break at 28 and I hit the road at yella bluff
Find a route I learned about when ya family does this kinda stuff
You can outrun the best of em but ya can't outrun ya raisin
Tuned up trucked and jars are what ya gone sip on from the mason

From a long line of shiners beating down the blacktop
Won't stop till I'm dead and gone
And a road I don't know or been down
Like the one I'm a turning on
Rattlesnake Ridge 5 miles long
I'm gonna run it all night long
