Sunbeam Special Lyrics - Long In The Tooth - Billy Joe Shaver

Back in my memory, a special little place 

A country boy stands with a smile on his face 

Watching all the people in the passenger car 

Wonder if he'd ever get a chance to go that far 

Sunbeam Special spinin' round the den 

Waking up memories of my childhood again 

Taking me to places I never have been 

Sunbeam Special, I'm holding the blame 

Higgy Boss is goin' a-chasing his tail 

He's up and at the barking, raising all kinds of hell 

Good God almighty candy-bared the door 

Rat along the windows, shook the hell out of the floor 

Sunbeam Special spinin' round the den 

Waking up memories of my childhood again 

Taking me to places I never have been 

Sunbeam Special, I'm holding the blame 

How Quicksy out sat(?) on the railroad track 

Sunflowers bent and swayed all the way back 

Critters in the tall grass went running for their life 

Sunbeam special disappeared in the night 

Sunbeam Special spinin' round the den 

Waking up memories of my childhood again 

Taking me to places I never have been 

Sunbeam Special, I'm holding the blame
