Dirty Little Rag

Lyrics

I met her on a freight train in the South
 Rolled up cigarette, hanging from her mouth, oh
 Nothing to do but sit and watch the town, smile sit and wave
 Dirty kid rag
 Out there box car is rolling out
 Out of the yard and out of town
 Oh highball whistle engineer get out of here no time to waste
 Dirty kid rag
 An old bottle of whiskey and a brown paper bag
 Oh good luck brother, go break a leg
 But don't loose a limb to that old freight train
 It's a rich man's world but it's been good
 Dirty kid rag
 I met him on the ghetto side of town
 He was drinking a 40 ounce
 He sure knows how to live
 Getting drunk underneath a bridge
 You got a lotta time to waste when you're getting wasted
 Not a penny to spare when you ain't getting paid
 You got a lotta time to waste when you ain't getting wasted
 Not a penny to spare when you ain't getting paid
 You got a lotta time to waste when you ain't getting wasted
 Not a penny to spare when you ain't getting paid, son
 And nothing is free but freedom itself
 So take another bottle off that dusty old shelf
 Let's drink to the sunset then puke for mother earth
 The Alabama freight trains, and all them pretty girls
 Nothing is free but freedom herself
 So take another bottle off that dusty old shelf
 Let's drink to the sunset and our beautiful mother earth
 The Alabama freight trains, and all them pretty girls
 Let's dance let's dance let's dance let's
 dance let's dance in the name of the dirt
 Let's see how much how much how much our lives are really worth
 Let's dance let's dance let's dance let's
 dance let's dance in the light of the moon
 Me and you
 Let's dance let's dance let's dance let's
 dance let's dance in the name of the dirt
 Let's see how much how much how much our lives are really worth
 Let's dance let's dance let's dance let's
 dance let's dance in the light of the moon
 Me and you
 A old bottle of whiskey and a brown paper bag
 Oh good luck brother, go break a leg
 But don't loose a limb to that old freight train
 It's a rich man's world, but it's been good
 Dirty kid rag!
