DIRT ROAD SHOES
(Ken Whitfield)- khandu

"Put me on the front porch
Hand me that guitar
Put my woman at my side
Moonshine whiskey
Makes her frisky
Got me singin' 'I'm Satisfied'"

"Take me to the sands of the Petticocowa
Watch the frogs jump in
Kudzu creeping, willow weepin'
Momma gettin' frisky again"

"Take me back down to Mississippi
Play them 'Carroll County Blues'
I wanna hear a little of Willie on the fiddle
And I'm puttin' on my dirt road shoes"

"Jesse's in the kitchen
Cookin up them bisquits
Lawd, how good they smell
Maxwell House is brewing,
Do ya' hear what John is doing
He singin' bout his Creole Belle"

"Take me back down to Mississippi
Play them John Hurt Blues
Play me the 'Candy Man'
Or the 'Slidin' Delta'
Cause I'm puttin on my dirt road shoes"
