Browne Jackson Shaky Town lyrics

I`ve witnessed those one night stands
Must have played in a thousand bands
But I`m just here tonight, tomorrow I`ll be gone
Seen folks show their blacker sides
Seen them die just for foolish pride
And those drivers always ask to hear that same old song

That`s a big ten-four
From your back door
Just put that hammer down
This young man feels
Those eighteen wheels
That keep turning `round to take me down to Shaky Town

I`ve heard all those hard luck tales
From all of you U.S. males
I`ve heard you tell those lies about the love you`ve known
And I`ve followed those highway signs
And I`ve run down those thin white lines
Like those drivers this old road is all I call my own

That`s a big ten-four
From your back door
Just put that hammer down
This young man feels
Those eighteen wheels
That keep turning `round to take me down to Shaky Town
