The Lyrics

I won't drive my car drunk 'round a smoky
Or take high trips with my LTD
Never burn no rubber down on main street
From that old jailhouse, I like bein' free

Just hate to get a Tickie From A Smoky
Their looks are kinda' mean, won't crack a grin
Then, they treat ya' poorly down at the courthouse
Wonder how they keep that hat strap on their chin?

I don't make no habit out 'a drinkin'
It's just somethin' I learned naturally
Never let my hair grow long and shaggy
It too, is somethin' I can't stop ya' see

Oh, I hate to get a Tickie From A Smoky
Their face is way too stern, won't crack a grin
Always treat me poorly down at the courthouse
Wonder how they keep that hat strap on their chin?

Them leather boots are heavy on your ear lobe
Guess they just do not understand high fives
They never give ya' back your drivers license
But, get mad if, without it, someone drives

So I hate to get a Tickie From A Smoky
They always look real mean, won't crack a grin
Kinda' treat me poorly down at the courthouse
Wonder how they keep that hat strap on their chin?

Wonder how keep that hat strap on their chin?
