Greenville To Baton Rouge Lyrics - Southern Rock Opera - Drive By Truckers

One more night, one more show, four down, eighty-four to go 

This ain't no time for moving slow 

Greenville to Baton Rouge 

I'll call you up when I get through 

The life I live is the life I choose 

Greenville to Baton Rouge 

The shows have sure been great this year 

All eight cylinders all twelve gears 

Call you up when I touch down at the airport in a Louisiana town. 

Street survivors, feeling no pain 

A little more rock, a little less cocaine. 

And don't forget about Stevie Gaines 

Greenville to Baton Rouge 

I'll call you up when I get through 

If it's the last thing that I do 

Greenville to Baton Rouge 

Last night, you should have seen this plane. The right engine shot a twelve foot flame. 

But South Carolina made us glad we came. 

Now we're up in the air again. 

Once we hit Louisiana, baby, I don't care 

Got a brand new airplane waiting for us there 

Give this piece of shit back to Aerosmith. 

Wake me up when we get there. 

The right engine gave a little flash, the pilot panicked and dumped the gas 

Everything is quiet, we're dropping fast. 

When we touch down gonna whup' his ass! 

Greenville to Baton Rouge 

Can't die now got a show to do 

The life I live is the life I choose 

Greenville to Baton Rouge.
