Rattlesnake Ridge

Rattlesnake Ridge, five miles long

I'm gonna run it all night long

Gotta get to G's bend, runnin' out of time

Just ran a blockade 'round the Dallas County line

Lawman's gaining ground, 'round the Boxacheta Bridge

Doin' what my daddy done and what his daddy did

From a long line of shiners, beatin' down the blacktop

Won't stop till I'm dead and gone

And a road I don't know or been down

Like the one I'm a-turnin' on

Rattlesnake Ridge, five miles long

I'm gonna run it all night long

Took the ferry into Camden

Only way to get to town

Sheriff's waiting at the landing

Ain't a way to turn around

So I jumped the Alabama River

And I left the Chevy loaded down

Waited in the water till my feet could hit the ground

Turned 'em on when I heard 'em turnin' loose another hound

From a long line of shiners, beating down the blacktop

Won't stop till I'm dead and gone

And a road I don't know or been down

Like the one I'm a-turnin' on

Rattlesnake Ridge, five miles long

I'm gonna run it all night long

Made a break at 28, and I hit the road at Yella Bluff

Find a route I learned about when your family does this kinda stuff

You can outrun the best of 'em, but you can't outrun your raisin'

Tuned-up, trucked, and jars are what you're gonna sip on from the mason

From a long line of shiners, beating down the blacktop

Won't stop till I'm dead and gone

And a road I don't know or been down

Like the one I'm a-turnin' on

Rattlesnake Ridge, five miles long

I'm gonna run it all night long
