Main Road Lyrics
Born near the red river on the bayou Pierre
Rosalee worked in White's Grocery
I'd get in trouble for goin' down there
She'd give me corn pops for free
Little red bike out on the main road
Lucky little girl
Little red bike out on the main road
Lucky little girl
Early in the mornin' brother and sister off at school
Mom would send me for wild flowers
Buttercups in the mornin' dew
A little red bike out on the main road too
Water towers, little stores, picnics in a haunted room
Horses waiting to be glue need a little sugar too
Train game, moss monster, playin' down in the woods of bamboo
Mr. Black Snake ate all the bad snakes, Mr. Black Snake'll eat you too 'cause
Games turn into life
Once a tomboy, once a tomwife
Little red bike out on the main road
Lucky little girl
Little red bike out on the main road
Lucky little girl
Lucky little girl
