The Lost Trailers - The Battery lyrics

I woke up on The Battery on a Charleston Friday night With my dirt-stained Corduroys and Balances crumpled up by my side I said goodbye to my company, then I shook it on down the line Sometimes I get a little lonely, and wish I hadn't left her behind (Chorus:) 'Cause every highway bears a bright sign, posted on the side of a roaring world And every pa**erby rolls back again, and in the end, you get what you're looking for So just give me my good friends, And a good hearted woman Just give me some high times to fall back on Sometimes I might need a cool drink and the good Lord to save me Then I will be found, then I will be found Ran out of gas on the freeway, 'bout a quarter mile from Abilene That Texas sun just-a hung in the sky, smiling on me A stranger stopped named Casey, said he's a friend of a friend of mine He said, "It shore is a small world." I said, "It suits me just fine." (Chorus) Well they put me in a jail cell before a race in Bristol, Tennessee Don't you go to Sully County if you want to be free But there are two ways you can take things, you can make them right or keep them wrong So I kept my mouth closed and played Dominoes 'til the judge sent me home (Chorus) So just give me my good friends And a good hearted woman Just give me some high times to fall back on Sometimes I might need a strong drink And the good Lord to save me Then I will be found, I will be found
