Long about midnight

up on Chigger Hill

Making mischief in the moonlight

just looking for a thrill

Then the lights are coming on and they're flashing blue

and they're running and they're gunning after you-know-who

Grinding out the gears in my pickup truck

trying to get away so we don't get busted

Flying 90 miles an hour

like a wild bat out of hell

(singing) hallelujah with a rebel yell

Dancing with a little danger

fast and hard I'm gonna ride

praying I'm just gonna make it out alive

Good lord willing and the creek don't rise

Good lord willing and the creek don't rise

Long about sunrise

cuddled up with Audra May

She never said she had a boyfriend

Oh boy, it's me who's going to pay

Cause he's standing out the window and he's fighting mad

looking like I might have stolen everything he had

Red-faced, cussing, yeah he's blowing a fuse

tough luck brother, when you snooze you lose

Good lord willing and the creek don't rise

Good lord willing and the creek don't rise

Good lord willing and the creek don't rise

Good lord willing and the creek don't rise

Good lord willing and the creek don't rise
