lyrics
When I was just six years old my Daddy'd let me steer the car
Up and down the Richardson Highway and in to Blackie's Bar
He'd sit me on a stool with a soda and carve his name in the wood
And say "Boy, if you grow up to be like me, you ain't never gonna be any good
"Blackie, Blackie don't know who you are
'til you carve your name in the bar"
Years later I lived on that muddy river where oil made the economy
One day my Daddy's words sunk in when they laid me off at the refinery
My girl was making a wedding dress and my boy was just six months
At night I'd race them boys on the Old Rich. Highway just to feel alive if only for once
Blackie, Blackie I don't know who you are
But someday my name will be all over your bar
Now the trees are all stripped of their color and there ain't no work in this town
And the heavies down at Blackie's Bar know where I can be found
So, tonight when I step outside and watch my breath float up to them darkening stars
I'm going to get in my truck and ain't buckling up and I'm driving straight into your bar
