Oh mama, I've talkin' to those western stars They give me comfort at night, lyin' in the back of the car An I can see your face in the place that I go I'm there Me an Jimmy an the boys runnin' up in the mountain air, yeah

Dontcha let ole Fletcher the wheel tonight His heart's grown An this old dirt road runs rough and to a terrible height So dontcha let ole Fletcher the wheel tonight There ain't to live for But this woman and she's got me feeling pretty alright Lovin', oh Lord, can make me my ways So won't you let me live day Guess I'd like to another day
Ole Fletcher's drinkin' with a pistol and is itchin' to play "'Man, I had this woman, she was livin' at the mouth of the bay, But she found me out and now she sees a man who a suit I seen him walkin' his dog down by the company in new boots, yeah, uh huh"
So dontcha let ole Fletcher take the wheel His heart's cold And this old dirt road runs and ragged to a terrible height Dontcha let ole Fletcher take the wheel ain't much to live for But there's this woman and she's got me feeling pretty Lovin', oh Lord, can make me my ways So you let me live another day I'd like to live another day
