drive by truckers - life in the factory lyrics

Loading...

let me tell ya’ll a story
so far fetched it must be true
bout a bunch of fatherless boys from florida and a boy who
was man enough for two.
practiced twelve hours a day in the h-ll house
in the swamps out side of town.
100 degrees without no open windows
heat radiating off the tin.

they named their band lynyrd skynyrd, after the coach who kicked
them out of school.
practiced seven days a week cuz rock’s the only thing to save
them from life in the factory.

they spent years inside the h-ll house
then they opened foe the who
90 degrees, outdoor, summer festivals
them, boy’s wouldn’t even break a sweat.
played each show like their lives depended on it
300 a year will take its due
they kicked the stones -ss out at knebworth
ask anyone who was there and they’ll tell you

they hit the road doing ninety
leave them steel mills far behind.
ain’t no good life at the ford plant
three guitars or a life of crime

sold out shows and platinum records, new york critics and redneckers
bunch of boy’s from florida had them eating from their hands
they got the fame and all the glory
but folks, it’s still a sad story when legend over shadows the
songs and the band.

let me tell y’all a story that more or less is the truth
from the swamps of northern florida to the swamps just north
of baton rouge
