Drivin’ Sideways – The Ballad of Junior Johnson Lyrics

Artist: Drivin’ Sideways
Song: The Ballad of Junior Johnson

Outrunning the law in a hot rod hauling ‘shine
He always seemed to stay one step ahead
But anything can happen on them dusty Southern backroads
Lucky that he did not wind up dead

He’s a rebel with a cause
In his younger days, an outlaw
From the hills of Carolina in ’55
Whoever was on his tail

Somehow he always lost ’em
Yeah, winning’s still the name of the game
Thanks to Junior Johnson
Yearning for the speed that became a way of life

A driver’s purse could never pay the bills
So he courted RJR and brought ’em to the table
Then him and Mr. Winston closed the deal
Yeah, he groomed all his teams into finely tuned machines

Showed you how to win and that he did
Looking back on 40 years, there ain’t no man could argue
Junior, he made racing what it is
He’s a rebel with a cause

In his younger days, an outlaw
From the hills of Carolina in ’55
Whoever was on his tail
Somehow he always lost ’em

Yeah, winning’s still the name of the game
Thanks to Junior Johnson
He’s a rebel with a cause
In his younger days, an outlaw

From the hills of Carolina in ’55
Whoever was on his tail
Somehow he always lost ’em
Yeah, winning’s still the name of the game

Thanks to Junior Johnson
