Havin' us a time...

"...My cousin Roscoe Slayton's oldest boy
from his second marriage up in Illinois
He was raised in East St. Louis by his momma's people
Where they do things different
Thought he'd just come on down
He was going to Dallas Texas in a semi truck called from that big McDonald's

"You know the one they built up on that great big ol' bridge
Across the Will Rogers Turnpike










"Took the Big Cabin exit stopped and bought a couple of cartons of cigarettes
At that Indian Smoke Shop with the big neon smoke rings..."
