As I drove down on 65, I was cruisin' down that old grapevine |
|
Well, I must have been doin' at least about 95 |
|
Well out there on the side of the road all broke down and |
|
Who do you think was standin' around |
|
But the greatest country singer alive! |
|
I'll fix your flat tire Merle |
|
Don't ya get your sweet country pickin' fingers all covered with erl |
|
Cause you're a honky, I know, but Merle you got soul |
|
And I'll fix your flat tire Merle |
|
Well I hear you had an adventurous youth, makin' love in a telephone booth |
|
And I even hear you did a little stretch in jail |
|
But now you got a big ranch house with a bar |
|
And eight, nine, ten of them fancy cars |
|
And every other little check comin' in the mail |
|
I'll fix your flat tire Merle |
|
Don't ya get your sweet country pickin' fingers all covered with erl |
|
Cause you're a honky, I know, but Merle you got soul |
|
And I'll fix your flat tire Merle |
|
Now I heard all them records ya did, makin' fun of us long haired kids |
|
And now ya know we don't care what ya think... Merle, |
|
If you're gonna call the world your home |
|
Ya know you're gonna have to get out and get stoned |
|
An' it's better with a joint than with a drink, I think |
|
So I'll fix your flat tire Merle |
|
Don't ya get your sweet country pickin' fingers all covered with erl |
|
Cause you're a honky, I know, but Merle you got soul |
|
And I'll fix your flat tire Merle |
|
So I'll fix your flat tire Merle |
