Ghost Radio - The Brian Setzer Orchestra, Brian Setzer

As I came across the Pecos

Broke west of the line

This thunderstorm was runnin'

And it ran me out of time

I was racing through the rain

With this rig from Tennessee

When a voice cut through the static

Bringing comfort home to me They were singin'

I ain’t sittin' in no shack

Got me a ford right out the back

So come on and roll me over

If I ain’t there in nothin' flat

With a honky tonk attitude

I’ll be doing the straight line swing

C’mon and grab your horseshoe

And throw it in the ring

Now the levee wall was breaking

Rocks were rolling from the ridge

The announcer broke in saying

There’s a bus trapped on the bridge

So I turned my rig around

I was axle deep in mud

And I found those people stranded

The bridge was groaning in the flood

Still my radio was singin'

I ain’t sittin' in no shack

Got me a ford right out the back

So come on and roll me over

If I ain’t there in nothin' flat

With a honky tonk attitude

I’ll be doing the straight line swing

C’mon and grab your horseshoe

And throw it in the ring

With the grinding of my engines

I hauled those people free

With the raging river rising

The driver came thanking me I told him about the message

He said that can’t be right

The storm knocked out the radio tower

Later last Saturday night

But through the static we heard singing

I ain’t sittin' in no shack

Got me a ford right out the back

So come on and roll me over

If I ain’t there in nothin' flat

With a honky tonk attitude

I’ll be doing the straight line swing

C’mon and grab your horseshoe

And throw it in the ring

Them old truckers gonna tell you

Down the lonely interstate

Out the dead air on the waveband

The Texas Playboys break

You’ll hear a keening voice

Bob Wills is with you as you drive

And you’ll know you’ve got a broadcast

Straight from 1935

Can you hear him singing

I ain’t sittin' in no shack

Got me a ford right out the back

So come on and roll me over

If I ain’t there in nothin' flat

With a honky tonk attitude

I’ll be doing the straight line swing

C’mon and grab your horseshoe

And throw it in the ring
