lirik lagu red simpson & junior brown - nitro express (1996 version)
[verse 1: red simpson]
i was pullin’ up a hill that’s known as the devil’s crest
haulin’ thirty~six ton on a run called the nitro express
there was nothin’ but curves a~runnin’ from the top on down
and at the bottom of the grade sat a quiet little country town
[verse 2: junior brown]
well, i was drivin’ off the top when she jarred and the driveshaft broke
started pumpin’ up the brakes, saw ’em goin’ in a big cloud of smoke
to keep her upright, i knew i had to do my best
against a runaway bomb they call the nitro express
[chorus: red simpson]
there was thirty~six ton of~a detonated steel
over eighteen tires that smoked and squеaled
i had to ride her down and i couldn’t jump free
or thеre’d be a big hole where that little town used to be
[verse 3: junior brown]
well, that old trailer leaned each time that i took another curve
my hands started sweatin’ and i knew i was losin’ my nerve
and i was cussin’ each rock and every inch of the devil’s crest
while fightin’ with the wheel of a rig called the nitro express
[verse 4: red simpson]
i side~swiped a mountain so i’d slow her down by rubbin’ her side
and when the sparks started flyin’, man, it looked like the fourth of july
i finally got her stopped, but mister, i’m a~gonna confess
that’s the last run i’m makin’ in a rig called the nitro express
[chorus: red simpson, junior brown]
there was thirty~six ton of~a detonated steel
over eighteen tires that smoked and squealed
i had to ride her down and i couldn’t jump free
or there’d be a big hole where that little town used to be
[chorus: red simpson, junior brown]
there was thirty~six ton of~a detonated steel
over eighteen tires that smoked and squealed
i had to ride her down and i couldn’t jump free
or there’d be a big hole where that little town used to be
[outro: red simpson, junior brown]
hey red, you still drivin’ that nitro express?
ha~ha~ha, naw, i got outta that mess
well, i don’t blame ya, that’s a tough row to hoe
dudley even quit
dudley even quit?
yeah, he gone
he’s back at the house, watchin’ tv
yeah, sing it again, ha~ha~ha~ha~ha~ha~ha~ha
