Truckstop Salvation Jimmy Buffett

[Verse 1]
Straight-laced, leather-faced
He rolled in like he owned the two-bit town
Dollar bills bulging from his bell-bottomed jeans
The population, they gathered 'round

[Verse 2]
Nothing this exciting since a fertilizer truck
Blew a front tire and landed in the creek
Everybody talkin', everybody strainin'
Tryin' to get a little peek

[Chorus]
It's just the world they'll never know, not a country fair sideshow
Reality they'll somehow never see
He's what they've tried to kill with their Bibles and their stills
But he's not weird, just a man that's bein' free

[Verse 3]
Payin' for the gas, he quickly shouted thanks
And continued on his journey all once again
Just about the time a siren fast-approached
And the pot-bellied sheriff, he whizzed right in

[Verse 4]
With his self-inflicted grammar, started shoutin' accusations
At the long-haired greasy looking ape
While a local D.J. from the fifty-watt station
Got the whole damn thing on tape
