Vandals


With 800 pounds on 18 wheels 
After 800 miles you know how it feels 
To have your rear so numb you gotta poke it 
To see if it's still there 
Well it's one more load to one more town 
Only problem is they're all starting to sound a bit similar 
Lord knows they all look the same 
So I got some hot coffee in Furnace Creek 
Abut the trouble is I was never neat and I spilled it 
And my map and phonebook were a blur 
But I had a girl and a job to do 
Or was that job and a girl to do? 
I don't know - I had to go and my velvet interior was a soggy mess 
I think I got a girl named Mary down in Susanville 
Waitin' for me to come home and make her my wife 
I know I got a load of somethin' goin' to somewhereville 
But I can't remember which to save to save my life 
With a load to Mr. Johnson in Watsoville 
Or is that a load to Mr. Watson in Johnsonville? 
Well, anyway, after several days I don't know what or if it mattered 
Just a load of placer to Cedarville, or a load of cedar to Placerville 
Or a container full of things up to Diamond Springs for an indoor swapmeet 
Is that a cargo of hay south to Northfork, Some plastic forks north to Hayfork, 
Or a bunch of men's nugget watches straight through to Pixley, 
Or Apple Jacks down to Fall River Mills or honor snacks up to Downieville? 
Well, the white girls are cute that I've met in Blackbute, 
But I'll stick to the road and finish my beer and coffee 
Now I am marrying Jan from Susanville 
Or am I suing Jane from Mary'sville? 
Cause if I am I better call Ernie my attorney from Burney Falls 
Well, all I know is if I recall- 
She had the longest legs and she was kinda tall 
And prettier than a catfish 
With its nose up against the dam 
Without
