Highballin'

 

Might be a while before we pass this way again

Come back in style, call the world a friend

Look inside, see condition we're in

Highballin' on the railroad line 

Freefallin' and feeling fine

Listen to the whistle blowin' again

All the livelong day, never ends

 

Deadheads die, enginemen pull the load

Brakemen flag, passengers come and go

World outside, fine fix it's in

Highballin' on the railroad line

Freefallin' and feeling fine

Hear that conductor calling again

Says there's a station up around the bend

 

Highballin' going clickity-clak

Wheels squallin' on a rusty track

No stallin' were ballin'-a-jack

Hobos callin', y'all come back

Highballin', let the good times roll

 

One way that we get off this train alive

We gotta ride all night to find another way to survive

Blow off a doob any town we're in

Highballin' on the railroad line

Freefallin' and feeling fine

Throwing all caution to the wind

But I sure do hope to come back here now and then

Highballin', let the good times
