the ballad of danger dave and double trouble - aaron tippin lyrics

[verse 1]
well, they loaded up in bakersfield
running late no time to k!ll
trying to beat the freezing rain
because danger dave forgot the chains
now where the 99 meets the 5
few cl!cks north the old grapevine
double trouble lost his nerve when he
hit some ice and we started to swerve

[verse 2]
well he lit a smoke and than he lit another
started to choke he said
“listen brother, danger dave we need to stop
without those chains we won’t make the top”
dave just smiled and gladly said
“it’s been three days since i’ve seen a bed
this load of beer’s gotta get to town
now gimme that wheel and i’ll hammer down”

[chorus]
(danger dave)
trouble ridin’ shotgun
and danger at the wheel
roaring like thunder
racing up the hill
keep out of the ditches
stay between the lines
gotta be on time (gotta be on time)
[verse 3]
well, he mashed her down and he hit full speed
got him up a good head of steam
ran the coup flew right by
that trooper said, “them boys are gonna die”
grapevine’s took it’s share of souls
when that ice starts taking hold
climbing it in a blaze of glory
but coming down that’s a different story

[verse 4]
well, sure enough they made the peak
trouble trying to knock the freak
what goes up must come down
’bout that time the trailer came around
but dave proclaimed, “i won’t jacknife
been pulling these hills most of my life”
gripped the wheel held her straight
’bout that time the whole rig began to rotate

[chorus]
(danger dave)
trouble ridin’ shotgun
and danger at the wheel
roaring like thunder
racing up the hill
keep out of the ditches
stay between the lines
gotta be on time (gotta be on time)
[verse 5]
now they were spinning down that super slab
and a funny smell was filling the cab
truck kept going ’round and ’round
all they could do was ride it down
they both knew that this was the end
went down the ramp come up again
somewhere they caught a break
the tires grabbed and they started to shake

[bridge]
well, all at once the ice is gone
they found a gear and headed home
legend has it they were right on time
two old tired drivers beat the mighty grapevine

[chorus]
(danger dave)
trouble ridin’ shotgun
and danger at the wheel
roaring like thunder
racing up the hill
keep out of the ditches
stay between the lines
gotta be on time (gotta be on time)
