Del Reeves Lyrics for Song: Diesel On My Tail
 Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Del Reeves
 
 
 
 32727>I just pulled onto the highway in my little foreign car
 
 Well it's rainin' and the road is really bad
 
 Never saw that big ole diesel but I heard him hit the air
 
 I got a feeling that I might have made him mad
 
 
 
 There's a diesel on my tail a making ninety miles an hour
 
 And my reflection in my mirror is mighty pale
 
 I can hear St Peter calling I can almost smell the flowers
 
 Can this compact take the impact there's a diesel on my tail
 
 
 
 Well he closed the gap between us pushed the pedal on the floor
 
 He's makin' ninety in that big ole diesel truck
 
 Hear the names he's callin' me above the engine's roar
 
 And the words won't be found in Webster's book
 
 
 
 There's a diesel on my 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
 
 Then I'm slippin' and a slidin' and afraid to touch the brake
 
 For this doodle bug could never stand the jar
 
 
 
 There's a diesel on my tail...
 
 
 
 Well I'm slippin' and a slidin' tryin' to hold it in the road
 
 And I tell you I 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 licence plate
 
 
 
 There's a diesel on my tail...
