Another Washboard Road

Another Washboard Road by Joel Robinson and Shane Brown D When the dust coats the dashboard G And the undercarriage rattles D We peer out the windows G See fruits on saguaros D I make a peace sign G Passing border patrol D A fence runs the roadside G To divide what they stole D I look to Shane G And say the words, D But they come out all vibrato G “Looks like we’re on another D washboard road When the zebra tail darts across the sand And Harris’s antelope squirrel At each wash the sand is soft Our rear end fishtails Cicadas sing from mesquite beans Their wings flutter in tempo We’re heading out to find a spring And fill our jugs with water, But when I try to sing this song The words come out vibrato Looks like we’re on another washboard road
