Melissa McClelland – Passenger 24 lyrics

Passenger number 24
I've got a bag of cocaine, cut my hair short
We're gonna fill it up with diesel, and American scum
Left a girl in Amarillo about as sweet as rum
A girl in Amarillo about as sweet as rum

Got a Christian name and a cross in ink
God don't like it when a poor man thinks
So I'm a boot-camp warrior, United States vet
Got a girl in Orange County, she don't know it yet
Girl in Orange County, don't know it yet

Now it's four AM and I'm still a hound
They dropped a mean-talking Yankee off in the last town
If I were in Kentucky I'd be shootin' raccoons
Stoned as a driver chasin' the moon

Hopped up driver chasin' the moon

Buyin' smokes for kids, and I pocket the change
Grab a jelly stick of barely legal home on the range
Jump on the bus as he's gunnin' the wheel
Dust in the tracks, pedal to steel
Dust in my tracks, pedal to steel

Passenger number 24
I've got a bag of cocaine, cut my hair short
We're going to fill it up with diesel, an American scum
Left a girl in Amarillo about as sweet as rum
A girl in Amarillo about as sweet (1..2...) as rum
