Phantom 309歌词完整版
I was out on the West Coast tryin' to make a
Buck
And things didn't work out I was down on my luck
Got tired a-roamin' and bummin' around
So I started thumbin' back East toward my home town
Made a lot of miles the first two days
And I figured I'd be home in week if my luck held out this way
But the third night I got stranded way out of town
At a cold lonely crossroads rain was pourin' down
I was hungry and freezin' done caught a chill
When the lights of a big semi topped the hill Lord I sure was glad to hear them air brakes come on
And I climbed in that cab where I knew it'd be warm
At the wheel sit a big man he weighed about two-ten
He stuck out his hand and said with a grin
Big Joe's the name I told him mine
And he said The name of my rig is Phantom 309
I asked him why he called his rig such a name
He said Son this old Mack can put 'em all to shame
There ain't a driver or a rig a-runnin' any line
Ain't seen nothin' but taillights from Phantom 309
Well we rode and talked the better part of the night
When the lights of a truck stop came in sight
He said I'm sorry son this is as far as you go
'Cause I gotta make a turn just on up the road
Well he tossed me a dime as he pulled her in low
And said Have yourself a cup on old Big Joe
When Joe and his rig roared out in the night
In nothin' flat he was clean out of sight
Well I went inside and ordered me a cup
Told the waiter Big Joe was settin' me up
Aw you coulda heard a pin drop it got deathly quiet
And the waiter's face turned kinda white
Well did I say something wrong I said with a halfway grin
He said Naw this happens every now and then
Ever' driver in here knows Big Joe
But son let me tell you what happened about ten years ago
At the crossroads tonight where you flagged him down
There was a bus load of kids comin' from town
And they were right in the middle when Big Joe topped the hill
It could have been slaughter but he turned his wheel
Well Joe lost control went into a skid A
Nd gave his life to save that bunch-a kids
And there at that crossroads was the end of the line
For Big Joe and Phantom 309
But every now and then some hiker'll come by
And like you Big Joe'll give 'em a ride
Here have another cup and forget about the dime
Keep it as a souvenir from Big Joe and Phantom 309
