Well, I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison
And I went to pick her up in the rain
But before I could get to the station in my pickup truck
My truck got run over by a damned old train

Ah, the pinnacle of the combined talents of Steve Goodman and John Prine! :lol: :ok

I'll bet if the two of them were alive today they would've managed to incorporate a self-driving pickup truck into that awesome final verse.




BTW, it's always annoyed me that David Allen Coe, who had the big hit version of the song, left out half the first verse—which I've always loved almost as much as the last verse:
Well it was all that I could do to keep from crying
Sometimes it seems so useless to remain
You're the one who always tried to change me
That is why I always stayed the same
