JR lived out in the woods all his natural born life

Ma & Pa kept him working no time to take a wife

Kept him working - work it hard boy

He couldn't take it no more he said hey I'm going away

I got a date with lady luck gonna see what she has to say

Chorus:

Down from the mountain wild in the streets

First trip to the big city it ain't nothing but doggone pity

Looking for a little company

Cleaned his truck got it all gassed up

Till it would blind you from the shine

Scrubbed himself down put his Sunday pants on

Hot damn he was ready to ride

Chorus:

Down from the mountain wild in the streets

Said hey baby what's your name said I want

to jump in your game

Looking for a little company

Chorus repeat

Well I saw the dragon lady she was walking up to me

Said good God Almighty baby Lord have mercy

What a sight she was to see

She gave me a wink of her eye said boy won't you come on in

She had a face that looked like an angel but her body was built

for sin

Chorus repeat
