Shotgun Angel

歌詞

Well, I've been drivin' all night And I know I'm gettin' tired But I haven't got far to go Think I'll push this southbound eighteen wheeler A little farther on down the road I've been drivin' like a fool, Dodgin' all the truck stops tryin' hard to make it home I gotta' put the hammer down Drive it in the ground Think I'm goin' crazy just from Drivin' alone Well, my eyes are gettin' heavy And I ran out of vitamins Six or seven hours ago So I thought I'd try to raise me a northbound jimmy On my C.B. radio I was breakin' for a copy When someone answered back In a voice that was sweet and low He said, "I'm gonna' lay it on you Where the rubber meets the road It's the Lord talkin' to you On your radio It was the voice of Jesus And I heard him say, "Got an angel ridin' shotgun And he's ridin' with you all the way" I was flyin' like the wind Breathin' fire like a dragon When my diesel truck left the ground Well, I thought that I was dreamin' But the Lord was talkin' to me Really layin' the gospel down I was prayin' and repentin', laughin' and grinnin' Thought my diesel truck was heaven bound Then the angel hit the air brakes And slowed my jimmy down Made a three point landin' About a mile from town
