Letra Truckstop Salvation - Jimmy Buffett
Straight-laced, leather-faced
He rolled in like he owned the two-bit town
Dollar bills bulging from his bell-bottomed jeans
The population, they gathered 'round
Nothing this exciting since a fertilizer truck
Blew a front tire and landed in the creek
Everybody talkin', everybody strainin'
Tryin' to get a little peek
It's just the world they'll never know, not a country fair sideshow
Reality they'll somehow never see
He's what they've tried to kill with their Bibles and their stills
But he's not weird, just a man that's bein' free
Payin' for the gas, he quickly shouted thanks
And continued on his journey all once again
Just about the time a siren fast-approached
And the pot-bellied sheriff, he whizzed right in
With his self-inflicted grammar, started shoutin' accusations
At the long-haired greasy looking ape
While a local D.J. from the fifty-watt station
Got the whole damn thing on tape
It's just the world they'll never know, not a country fair sideshow
Reality they'll somehow never see
He's what they've tried to kill with their Bibles and their stills
But he's not weird, just a man that's bein' free
The holy roller preacher told the eager congregation
That the devil had passed right through their nest
But the teenage girls with their locks in curls
Were a-talkin' 'bout that hair upon his chest
Now the kids got their cookies while the preacher saved some souls
And the story spread to everyone in sight
Commotion was the word and everybody heard
He was gone before the night
It's just the world they'll never know, not a country fair sideshow
Reality they'll somehow never see
He's what they've tried to kill with their Bibles and their stills
But he's not weird, just a man that's bein' free
He rolled in like he owned the two-bit town
Dollar bills bulging from his bell-bottomed jeans
The population, they gathered 'round
Nothing this exciting since a fertilizer truck
Blew a front tire and landed in the creek
Everybody talkin', everybody strainin'
Tryin' to get a little peek
It's just the world they'll never know, not a country fair sideshow
Reality they'll somehow never see
He's what they've tried to kill with their Bibles and their stills
But he's not weird, just a man that's bein' free
Payin' for the gas, he quickly shouted thanks
And continued on his journey all once again
Just about the time a siren fast-approached
And the pot-bellied sheriff, he whizzed right in
With his self-inflicted grammar, started shoutin' accusations
At the long-haired greasy looking ape
While a local D.J. from the fifty-watt station
Got the whole damn thing on tape
It's just the world they'll never know, not a country fair sideshow
Reality they'll somehow never see
He's what they've tried to kill with their Bibles and their stills
But he's not weird, just a man that's bein' free
The holy roller preacher told the eager congregation
That the devil had passed right through their nest
But the teenage girls with their locks in curls
Were a-talkin' 'bout that hair upon his chest
Now the kids got their cookies while the preacher saved some souls
And the story spread to everyone in sight
Commotion was the word and everybody heard
He was gone before the night
It's just the world they'll never know, not a country fair sideshow
Reality they'll somehow never see
He's what they've tried to kill with their Bibles and their stills
But he's not weird, just a man that's bein' free
