Red Ball Texas Flyer

[E]Well I'm drivin' to New Orleans on a half a tank of gas
Got a[B] Jesus on the dashboard got a third wife on my ass
They don't[E] think I'm gonna make it, but[A] I swear I think I can
In that[E] Red Ball Texas Flyer I'm[B] a Red Ball T[E]exas Man

[E]Well I left fifteen this mornin' just about the break of day
Sixteen[B] minutes and a bowl of chili, I'm bound to find my way
If I[E] got to actin' gorgeous then they'[A]ll know just who I am
In that[E] Red Ball Texas Flyer I'm[B] a Red Ball T[E]exas Man

[E]Well in bunky Louisiana there's a redhead made the stand
With a[B] pistol full of nickels and a razor in her hand
She said [E]"I'm gonna cut you boy fr[A]om appetite to thirst"
I said [E]"Hold on pretty pint[B]o, better cut the mus[E]tard first"

[E]Well I rode her in the parkin' lot I rode her in the green
I[B] rode her till the sheriff came and then it got obscene
Oh we[E] jumped the bail to midnight she sai[A]d "Honey you like a grand"
In that[E] Red Ball Texas Flyer I'm[B] a Red Ball T[E]exas Man

[A] [E] [F#m] [B]          [E]

[E]Oh we got down to New Orleans down beside the Hotel Reef
Were we[B] found out we were different than we ever thought we'd be
At the[E] court of the Seven Sisters I w[A]as prowlin' the settin' sun
Opened[E] up the Red Ball Flyer and mov[B]ed in with [E]everyone
