High Ball Songtext

von Jesse Winchester

Winchester

High ball in the passing lane
This old Plymouth is a balling train
I will drive it hard 'til the wheels wear down
Then get out and push the thing into town.

High ball, this poor old heart
You're going to pull the thing all apart
You drive it hard til the heart break down
Who's gonna fix it in this ole town.

Not too strong but I'm ever ready
I drive fast but I drive steady
I'm not long for this old world
So, please, get out of my way.

High ball, you must lay back
You're going to run the thing off the track
Now lay back, why another day ?
I got to high ball it all the way.

Oh, not too strong but I'm ever ready
I drive fast but I drive steady
I'm not long for this old world
So, please, get out of my way.

Oh, high ball, in a jet airplane
Much too slow that old balling train
Fly it hard 'til the thing fall down
Then get out and push the thing into town.

Not too strong but I'm ever ready
I drive fast but I drive steady
I'm not long for this old world
So, please, get out of my way.
