Drive-By Truckers

Drive-By Truckers are an alternative country/Southern rock band based in Athens, Georgia, though two out of five current members (Patterson Hood and Mike Cooley) are originally from The Shoals region of Northern Alabama, and the band strongly identifies with Alabama. Their music uses three guitars as well as bass, drums, and now keyboards. Like many alternative country acts, the Drive-By Truckers record in analog (using 2 inch, 16-track open reel tape recorders). However, unlike the majority of their contemporaries, the Drive-By Truckers have consistently pushed their labels to also release the band's records in a vinyl format. more »

Honey, take care of the children, make them do as they're told
I got a meeting in the morning down at the end of the Goode's Field Road
There ain't much for a man in my position
A man like me won't last too long in prison
And all those friends down at Police Department
Will act like they never had anything to do with me

Started out down at the junk yard, taking orders from a moron
And a man my size don't like taking orders, from anyone
Bought myself an old beat up wrecker, I built an empire with my labor brains and sweat
But it's hard to make an honest living and a man takes any help he gets

Nothing much for a man in my position, a second mortgage and three
College kids tuition and all them friends that I helped along the way
Will act like they never had anything to do with me

But you and me, 
We had us some good times and I've always been a family man deep down. 
Ain't much a believer of hiring work from 'out of state'
But they'll be asking questions when I'm found. 
They'll be asking questions when I'm found

Honey, take care of the children, pay the house off when the salvage yard gets sold
And you don't know nothing when the insurance man asks questions
'Bout what went down at the Goode's Field Road

'Bout what went down at the Goode's Field Road.
