Stranded Outside Tater Knob Lyrics

Stranded Outside Tater Knob lyrics

Raised on a diet of No-Doz, donuts, an' diesel emissions, Listenin' to wrinkled
old men dronin' on about the weather and road conditions. Stayin;five miles
ahead of whatever's behind, wonderin' where I went wrong. And the strange city
signs start to sound like rhymes in a never-ending song.



Just a one-horse town---no motel or bar. Just a wax museum, of dead HEE-HAW
stars. You don't look in a mirror, when you're cold and mean. Stranded outside
Tater Knob, with just a JUGGS magazine.



Well I was sittin' at a table in a topless bar at the end of Music Row.
Watchin' fat girls strip to Molly Hatchett songs, hopin' their stretch marks
won't show. I spent my last dime on a watered-down drink, and I'm headed out
for the door. Before I could kick myself for comin' here, I was already back
for more.



My ex-wife ran a whorehouse on the highway out of town, they used to give
special truckers' rates before the Baptists burned it down. She had a tattoo on
her inner thigh, said "if you can read this, yer too close". We used
to drive five miles for the nearest cold beer and bitch about the lives we
chose.
