(Intro Riff X 3)



Verse: -- Basic Blues riff in A....



  A
I've got enemies I respect, 


And I've got friends that I can't stand


A pile of bills at home but I keep working for the man

                D
Now I'm heading westbound out on I-10

                                               A
This big rig's caught the wind and I'm headin home

      E
And I tell her she's on my mind

                                                A
I pop the clutch and I feel it whine so I let it go


Chorus:


       A
Now it hits me like a hammer, 


Last night's Alabama Slammer

                                   D
My head revs like an engine gearin down

 E (Intro Riff)
Well my left hand's on the wheel 

 E (Intro Riff)                                    A
While my right hand's steady still as I roll one up

 E (Intro Riff)
And all my friends say take it easy

                             A
But I take it any way that I can



Verse 2:

I pump the pedal twice for a brake check
I let the air horn fly at the rednecks
Who are rolling out the bar at 10 past 2
Now I'm lit like a roman candle
And 420 is my handle
And I'm popping that Go Fast
Cause I makes me fly


Chorus

Solo - - (In A)

E
Now I'm lit like a roman candle

And 420 is my handle

And I'm poppin that Go Fast
                   A
Cause it makes me fly

            E
And all my friends say take it easy
                              A
But I take it any way that I can
           E
And all my friends say take it easy

But I take it any way that I can
