  DIESEL ON MY TAIL

  Recorded by Jim and Jesse McReynolds

  Words and music by Jim Fagan

  

  [D] I just pulled onto the highway in my little foreign car

  Well, it's raining and the [A7] road is really [D] bad

  Never saw that big old diesel, but I heard him hit the air

  I've got a feeling that I [A7] might have made him [D] mad.

  

  [D] He closed the gap between us, pushed the pedal on the floor

  He's makin' ninety in that [A7] big old diesel [D] truck

  I can hear the names he's callin' me above the engine's roar

  And the words won't be [A7] found in Webster's [D] book.

  

  CHORUS

  There's a [G] diesel on my tail a-making ninety miles an hour

  My reflection in my [D] mirror's mighty [A7] pale

  I can [D] hear St. Peter callin'

  I can [G] almost smell the [D] flowers

  Can this compact [Strum/Pause] take the impact [Strum/Pause] 

  There's a [A7] diesel on my [D] tail.

  

  Well I'm huffin' and a-puffin', as I try to make the grade 

  And I wish I had some pedals on this car 

  Man, I'm slippin' and a-slidin' and afraid to touch the brake 

  For this DOODLE BUG could never stand the jar.

  

  CHORUS

  

  Well, I'm slippin' and a-slidin', trying to hold it in the road 

  And I'll tell you I've just got to win this race 

  While I'm tremblin' and a-shakin', he's a-pourin' on the coal

  So close that I can steal his license plate.

  

  CHORUS

  

  TAG: Can this compact take the impact, there's a diesel on my tail.
