I've been burning up the blacktop
I've been wearin' out these tires
I've got a rebuilt carburetor
I've got brand new spark plug wires
I've been clutchin and a brakin
I've been up these hills and down
Her good love keeps me makin
That Asheville turnaround

I've been working like the dickens
Trying to make a livin
Just waitin for the weed to end
I try to pay attention
But it's hard to keep from thinkin'
Bout bein' in her arms again
There ain't a woman finer
Than the one in Carolina
At the top of Black Mountain Road
[From: http://www.elyrics.net ]
Friday comes around
I'll pour some coffee down
And buddy I'll be good to go

Now three hundred four
And a half miles one way
Puts me on her front pourch steps
I know what I got comin'
The kissin' and a huggin'
About as good as any man can get
For two days and two nights
Everthing's alright
Happy as a hardwood tree
The only thing wrong
When Sunday comes along
I've got to rocket back to Tennessee
After last chorus:
Just can't let her down
She's the best girl I have found
I make that Ashville turnaround.
