Old Pipeliner Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm an old pipeliner and I lay my line all day
Yes, I'm an old pipeliner and lay my line all day
I got four or five women just waitin' to draw my pay

[Verse 2]
When you see me comin', raise your window high
When you see me comin', raise those windows high
And when you see me leavin', hang your little head and cry

[Verse 3]
Goin' down to the river, gonna take me a rockin' chair
Goin' down to the river, gonna take me a rockin' chair
If the blues don't leave me, gonna rock on away from here

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm an old pipeliner and I lay my line all day
Well, I'm an old pipeliner and I lay my line all day
I got four or five women just waitin' to draw my pay

[Piano Solo]

[Verse 4]
Gonna buy me an airplane and fly from town to town
Gonna buy me an airplane and fly from town to town
When I find my baby, gonna ease that airplane down

[Verse 5]
Eat my breakfast here, my supper in New Orleans
Eat my breakfast here, my supper in New Orleans
I'm gonna get me a gal that I ain't never seen

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm an old pipeliner and I lay my line all day
I'm an old pipeliner and I lay my line all day
I got four or five women just waitin' to draw my pay
