Wolf Creek Pass歌词完整版
Bill Fries Chip Davis
Me an' Earl was haulin' chickens on a flatbed out of Wiggins and we'd spent all night on the uphill side of thirty-seven miles of hell called Wolf Creek Pass Which is up on the Great Divide
We was settin' there suckin' toothpicks drinkin' Nehi and onion soup mix and I said Earl let's mail a card to Mother then send them chickens on down the other side Yeah let's give 'em a ride
Wolf Creek Pass way up on the Great Divide
Truckin' on down the other side
Well Earl put down his bottle mashed his foot down on the throttle and then a couple'a boobs with a thousand cubes in a nineteen-forty-eight Peterbilt screamed to life We woke up the chickens
Well we roared up offa that shoulder sprayin' pine cones rocks and boulders and put four hundred head of them Rhode Island reds and a couple a' burnt-out roosters on the line Look out below 'cause here we go
Well we commenced to truckin' and them hens commenced to cluckin' and then Earl took out a match and scratched his pants and lit up the unused half of a dollar cigar and took a puff Says My ain't this purdy up here
I says Earl this hill can spill us You better slow down or you gonna kill us Just make one mistake and it's the Pearly Gates for them eight-five crates a' USDA-approved cluckers You wanna hit second
Wolf Creek Pass way up on the Great Divide
Truckin' on down the other side
Well Earl grabbed on the shifter and he stabbed her into fifth gear and then the chromium-plated fully-illuminated genuine accessory shift knob come right off in his hand I says You wanna screw that thing back on Earl
He was tryin' to thread it on there when the fire fell off a' his cigar and dropped on down sorta rolled around and then lit in the cuff of Earl's pants and burned a hole in his sock Yeah sorta set him right on fire
I looked on outta the window and I started countin' phone poles goin' by at the rate of four to the seventh power Well I put two and two together and added twelve and carried five come up with twenty-two thousand telephone poles an hour
I looked at Earl and his eyes was wide his lip was curled and his leg was fried And his hand was froze to the wheel like a tongue to a sled in the middle of a blizzard I says Earl I'm not the type to complain but the time has come for me to explain that if you don't apply some brake real soon they're gonna have to pick us up with a stick and a spoon
Well Earl rared back and cocked his leg stepped as down as hard as he could on the brake and the pedal went clear to the floor and stayed there right there on the floor He said it was sorta like steppin' on a plum
Well from there on down it just wasn't real purdyit was hairpin county and switchback city One of 'em looked like a can full'a worms another one looked like malaria germs Right in the middle of the whole d**n show was a real nice tunnel now wouldn't you know
Sign says clearance to the twelve-foot line but the chickens was stacked to thirteen-nine Well we shot that tunnel at a hundred-and-ten like gas through a funnel and eggs through a hen and we took that top row of chickens off slicker than scum off a Lousiana swamp Went down and around and around and down 'til we run outta ground at the edge of town Bashed into the side of the feed store in downtown Pagosa Springs
Wolf Creek Pass way up on the Great Divide
Truckin' on down the other side
Wolf Creek Pass way up on the Great Divide
Truckin' on down the other side
