When Willie met Ronnie he was runnin' up a track He was bent down, burned out, carryin' a sack Come on boy, you got to stop and help me some And keep this money hidden when the police come Ronnie was shiverin' and makin' funny sounds He was lookin' like a fox That was runnin' from the hounds Sure little buddy, I can lighten up your load You half it up, I'll hit it up, I'll take it down the road Never had a better combination been planned 'Cos Willie was a roadie with a rock ?n? roll band They were heads back, celebratin', drinkin' moonshine Heads down, here we go across another state line Tanked up and bullet proof They couldn't give a monkey's Damn if he didn't hide the money in a drum case Pack 'em up, hit em up, do another show The robber and the roadie got a long way to go
