jake (when the smoke clears)
A boy gets crazy when he's sittin' at the bar Don't you mess with Jake don't you push him too far Rotgut whiskey and homemade wine Make a good country boy just lose his mind Like a runaway train rollin' through the night the boy ain't got no fear Like a race car hittin' the wall it gets hard to steer Waitin' for the smoke to clear oooh oooooh... Betty got caught in the back of Bobby's car Bobby got caught with his hand in the cookie jar Her Daddy blew a fuse and went for his gun Now Bobby and Betty they're on the run Like a runaway train rollin' throught the night nothin's gonna stop them now Gotta keep on moving cover their tracks somehow Like a runaway train rollin' through the night The kids ain't got no fear Daddy swears bang is the last sound Bobby's gonna hear Oooohhh... Waitin' for the smoke to clear Daddy finally caught 'em and he emptied his gun Put a dead end to all of Bobby's fun Oooohhh... Good god almighty for heaven's sakes Betty's Daddy turned out to be Jake Like a runaway train rollin' through the night Jake ain't got no fear No hangman judge gonna give the boy 99 years Here sits Jake in the back of this bar Sippin' on an ice cold beer If the law had a clue all they'd do is look right here They'd see Jake Waitin' for the smoke to clear ... Waitin' for... Oooooooooooooh.....
