Chorus
Oh it's a triptych on a dashboard line
Florida to Carolina to the end of time
Orange bubble letters and a nickel stamp
Willie's got a postcard for every swamp
Keep on drivin' son
Don't you ever look back
If you get lost follow the smoke out the stack
Verse 1
Fog on the cypress
Spanish moss hangin' low
Half-sunk rusted metal where the black water goes
Gray shack on stilts
Crooked screen door
Three chimps on the porch hollerin' give us more
Board swingin' wide
Worms for sale
College kids lined up on the limestone rail
Skeeters singin' a hymn
Airboat idles thin
Welcome to Willie's
Come on in
Chorus
Oh it's a triptych on a dashboard line
Florida to Carolina to the end of time
Orange bubble letters and a nickel stamp
Willie's got a postcard for every swamp
Keep on drivin' son
Don't you ever look back
If you get lost follow the smoke out the stack
Verse 2
Sunrise over Sandy Run
Gold on the hill
Same old shack but a brand new thrill
Dust on a dirt track
Risin' like a hurricane
Monkeys in bandanas ridin' bulls in the fast lane
White cowboy hats
Cricket flour on the ledge
Five kids sittin' on the rocky ledge
Hand to the sky
Watch the critters ride by
He's the king of the county
No need to ask why
Bridge
Postmark wavy 1938
Linen paper cracklin' and burnin' late
Edges all brown
Edges all curled
Willie folded three weird worlds into one weird world
Chorus
Oh it's a triptych on a dashboard line
Florida to Carolina to the end of time
Orange bubble letters and a nickel stamp
Willie's got a postcard for every swamp
Keep on drivin' son
Don't you ever look back
If you get lost follow the smoke out the stack
Verse 3
Lava rock cracks
Lift up the wood
Don't come back even if you could
Stalactites drippin'
River runs red
Flashlight strapped to a bearded man's head
Space Rider painted on the shuttle side
Take a comet pole for a hollow earth ride
T-Rex stares
Bronto don't sleep
Willie's keepin' secrets in the cavern deep
Teal glow mushroom
Vivid mushroom light
The center of the planet is open all night
Chorus
Oh it's a triptych on a dashboard line
Florida to Carolina to the end of time
Orange bubble letters and a nickel stamp
Willie's got a postcard for every swamp
Keep on drivin' son
Don't you ever look back
If you get lost follow the smoke out the stack
