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
