paroles de chanson The Ballad of Danger Dave and Double Trouble - Aaron Tippin

Well they loaded up in Bakersfield
Running late no time no kill
Trying to beat the freezing rain
Because Danger Dave forgot the chains
Now where the 99 meets 5
Few clicks north the old grapevine
Double trouble lost his nerve when he
Hit some ice we started to serve

Well he lit a smoke and than he lit another
Started to choke he said
"Listen brother Danger Dave we need to stop
Without those chains we won't make the top"
Dave just smiled and (slapped) his head
It's been three days sense I've seen a bed
This load of beer's gotta get to town
Now gemmie that wheel and I'll hammer down

Trouble ridin' shotgun
And Danger's at the wheel
Roaring like thunder
Racing up the hill
Keep out of the ditches
Stay between the lines
Gotta be on time

Well he smashed her down and he hit full speed
Got him up a good head of stream
Ran the coup flew right by
"Them boys gonna die"
Grapevine took it's share of souls
When the ice starts taking hold
Climbing it in a blaze of glory
Coming down that's a different story

Well sure enough they made the peak
Trouble trying to knock the (free)
What goes up must come down
Bout that time trailer came around
But Dave proclaimed I won't jackknife
Been pulling these hills most of my life
Gripped the wheel help her straight
Bout that time the whole rig began to rotate

Trouble ridin' shotgun
And Danger's at the wheel
Roaring like thunder
Racing up the hill
Keep out of the ditches
Stay between the lines
Gotta be on time

Now they were spinning down that super slab
And funny smell was filling the cab
Truck kept going round and round
All they could do was ride it down
They both knew that this was the end
Went down the ramp come up again
Somewhere they caught a break
The tires grabed and they started to shake

Well all at once the ice is gone
They found a gear and headed home
Legend has it they were right on time
Two old tired drivers beat the mighty grapevine

Trouble ridin' shotgun
And Danger's at the wheel
Roaring like thunder
Racing up the hill
Keep out of the ditches
Stay between the lines
Gotta be on time
