The Dhighway she's hotter than Gnine kinds the hell
The Arides, they're as scarce as the rDain
When you're Ddown to your last shuck with Gnothing to sell
And Atoo far away from the Dtrain
[Verse 2]
Been a Dgood month of Sundays and a Gguitar ago
Had a Atall drink of yesterday's Dwine
Left a Dlong string of friends, some Gsheets in the wind
And some Asatisfied women behDind
[Chorus]
Hey, Dride me down easy Lord, Gride me on down
Leave Aword in the dust where I Dlay
Say I'm Deasy come, Geasy go
And Aeasy to love when I Dstay
[Verse 3]

I locked Ahorns with the devil himDself
Been a Drodeo bum, Ga son of a gun
And a Ahobo with stars in his cDrown

Leave Aword in the dust where I Dlay
Say I'm Deasy come, Geasy go
