That farm on the edge of town belongs to old man Lee His family came and settled down in 1893 They ran a steady business hidden, til the sheriff caught on look Now that sheriff's name is written in the county graveyard book Lee grabbed the phone about a quarter after eight Son, I've got a load, you've got a midnight run to make Stay on Thunder Road and try to dodge the blue This old state of Tennessee's got a bounty out for you Roll on down the road boy this ain't no home Hands are getting dirty for a dime Mama stopped believing when daddy died in Vietnam Raised her son on borrowed time Well, the moonshine runs stronger than the Mississippi flows That storm of rolling thunder is the only thing he knows Can't get away from this hard kind of living So he grabs the keys and adds to the miles driven His daddy managed to get out when he was 16 By leaving at night and lying to the Marines But the devil doesn't care if you wear a purple heart Cause that stone and flag found a way back to the farm Roll on down the road boy this ain't no home Hands are getting dirty for a dime Mama stopped believing when daddy died in Vietnam Raised her son on borrowed time Well, the moonshine runs stronger than the Mississippi flows That storm of rolling thunder is the only thing he knows Can't get away from this hard kind of living So he grabs the keys and adds to the miles driven Three speed on the column of his truck from '94 All these years of running, put two dents in the door Hauling everything from top to bottom shelf One man to blame and he only blames himself Roll on down the road boy this ain't no home Hands are getting dirty for a dime Mama stopped believing when daddy died in Vietnam Raised her son on borrowed time Well, the moonshine runs stronger than the Mississippi flows That storm of rolling thunder is the only thing he knows Can't get away from this hard kind of living So he grabs the keys and adds to the miles driven He grabs the keys and adds to the miles driven
