Truckstop Salvation -  Jimmy Buffett

    Straight-laced leather-faced he rolled
    In like he owned the two-bit town
    Dollar bills bulging from his bell-bottomed jeans
    The population they gathered 'round
    Nothing this exciting since a fertilizer truck
    Blew a front tire and landed in the creek
    Everybody talkin' everybody strainin'
    Tryin' to get a little peek

    Chorus:
    It's just the world they'll never know
    Not a country fair side show
    Reality they'll somehow never see
    He's what they've tried to kill
    With their Bibles and their stills
    But he's not weird just a man that's bein' free

    Payin' for the gas he quickly shouted thanks
    And continued on his journey all once again
    Just about the time a siren fast-approached and
    The pot bellied sheriff he whizzed right in
    With his self inflicted grammar started shoutin'
    Accusations at the long haired greasy looking ape
    While a local D.J. from the fifty watt station got
    The whole damn thing on tape

    Chorus:
    It's just the world they'll never know
    Not a country fair side show
    Reality they'll somehow never see
    He's what they've tried to kill
    With their Bibles and their stills
    But he's not weird just a man that's bein' free

    The holy roller preacher told the eager congregation
    That the devil had passed right through their nest
    But the teenage girls with their locks in curls were
    A talkin' 'bout that hair upon his chest
    Now the kids got their cookies while the preacher
    Saved some souls and the story spread to everyone in sight
    Commotion was the word and everybody heard
    He was gone before the night

    Chorus:
    It's just the world they'll never know
    Not a country fair side show
    Reality they'll somehow never see
    He's what they've tried to kill
    With their Bibles and their stills
    But he's not weird just a man that's bein' free
