Lynyrd Skynyrd - Jake (When the Smoke Clears) lyrics

Your rating:

A boy gets crazy when he's sittin' at the bar

Don't you mess with Jake don't you push him too far

Rotgut whiskey and homemade wine

Make a good country boy just lose his mind 

Like a runaway train rollin' through the night the boy ain't got no fear

Like a race car hittin' the wall it gets hard to steer

Waitin' for the smoke to clear



oooh oooooh...



Betty got caught in the back of Bobby's car

Bobby got caught with his hand in the cookie jar

Her Daddy blew a fuse and went for his gun

Now Bobby and Betty they're on the run 

Like a runaway train rollin' throught the night nothin's gonna stop them now

Gotta keep on moving cover their tracks somehow



Like a runaway train rollin' through the night

The kids ain't got no fear

Daddy swears bang is the last sound Bobby's gonna hear  Oooohhh...

Waitin' for the smoke to clear



Daddy finally caught 'em and he emptied his gun

Put a dead end to all of Bobby's fun  Oooohhh...

Good god almighty for heaven's sakes

Betty's Daddy turned out to be Jake



Like a runaway train rollin' through the night

Jake ain't got no fear

No hangman judge gonna give the boy 99 years



Here sits Jake in the back of this bar

Sippin' on an ice cold beer

If the law had a clue all they'd do is look right here 

They'd see Jake

Waitin' for the smoke to clear .... Waitin' for...

Oooooooooooooh....
