my name is frank davis , drive a dixie 109
B E
i was out on highway 17 , just south of camden line

it was down there in the heart of wilsonville where i met my fate
B E
she was standing outside the bar room said she was waiting for a date
A E
but i knew that that was just a line
A E
and i knew i was messin’ with a losin’ kind

well i knew what we were both doing , and i knew that you can’t win
B E
but when the light turned green , i reached across the seat , popped the lock and she slid in

she said she liked mexican music , she knew a place if i had the time
B
well we had a few drinks and we danced a while
E
i pulled her close , she didn’t mind
A E
and what i knew kinda slipped my mind
B E
and i couldn’t resist her messin’ with a losin’ kind

well we drove around in my buick , getting drunk and having fun
B E
well we ended up at this best western out on highway 101

it was around 3 A . m . we went out to this empty little road side bar
B
it was there the cash register was open
E
it was there i hit that guy to hard
A E
but i knew when i hit him for the second time
B E
that one attracts the other when you’re the losin’ kind

well i grabbed her hand to get out of there

and i felt like i was gonna be sick
B E
and a half hour later the sleet started come down and that highway got pretty slick

i seen some lights in my rear – view mirror i guess i panicked and gave her a gun
B E
well then i wrapped us around a telephone pole south on highway 101

well she just stumbled out on to the banks

and sat down in a pout
B E
well i kicked out the driver side window but buddy when i got out

well all i had to greet me was a highway patrolman’s 45
B E
he looked at the wreak and then he said “son you’re lucky to be alive”
A E
“well sir i’ll think that one over if you don’t mind
B E
now luck ain’t much good to you when it’s the losin’ kind”
