This is where we dropped off the prettiest little girl
Same grade as me
Tried to kiss her once in the aisle of the bus
And she walked right over me
Face-down in the gum on the floor
I was hopin' that she'd change her mind
But I swear as she walked down the stairs
She didn't even wave goodbye
Didn't even wave goodbye
Ray Dixon didn't take no lip
He'd kick you right off the bus
Stop by your house on the way out of the holler
And tell your momma where you was
He didn't need no driver's aid
To keep a bunch of kids in line
All he needed was a glare in the mirror
And a paddle that he carved from pine
Blisterin' punk kids alive, aw, blisterin'
This is where we dropped off the prettiest little girl
Same grade as me
I held onto hope for eight long years
And by the time that I turned sixteen
I wasn't awkward, I was a real smooth talker
With my very own pickup truck
I'd take her home and if her parents weren't around
She'd bring me in and give me some
Bring me in and give me some
Safe to say nowadays ol' Ray
Coudln't keep a route very long
And I'm glad the little girl's dad
Never found out what was goin' on
I know he'd've kill me in a minute
And he wouldn't have left no trace
Hogs'll eat about anything you give 'em
And they don't let nothin' go to waste
Don't let nothin' go to waste
This is where we dropped off the prettiest little girl
Same grade as me
This is where we dropped off the prettiest little girl
Este es el lugar donde dejamos a la niña más bonita
Same grade as me
Del mismo grado que yo
Tried to kiss her once in the aisle of the bus
Intenté besarla una vez en el pasillo del autobús
And she walked right over me
Y ella me pasó por encima
Face-down in the gum on the floor
Cara abajo en el chicle del suelo
I was hopin' that she'd change her mind
Esperaba que ella cambiara de opinión
But I swear as she walked down the stairs
Pero juro que mientras bajaba las escaleras
She didn't even wave goodbye
Ella ni siquiera se despidió
Didn't even wave goodbye
Ni siquiera se despidió
Ray Dixon didn't take no lip
Ray Dixon no aceptaba desplantes
He'd kick you right off the bus
Te echaría del autobús
Stop by your house on the way out of the holler
Pararía en tu casa de camino fuera del valle
And tell your momma where you was
Y le diría a tu mamá dónde estabas
He didn't need no driver's aid
No necesitaba ninguna ayuda de conductor
To keep a bunch of kids in line
Para mantener a un montón de niños en línea
All he needed was a glare in the mirror
Todo lo que necesitaba era una mirada en el espejo
And a paddle that he carved from pine
Y una paleta que talló de pino
Blisterin' punk kids alive, aw, blisterin'
Ampollando a los niños punk vivos, oh, ampollando
This is where we dropped off the prettiest little girl
Este es el lugar donde dejamos a la niña más bonita
Same grade as me
Del mismo grado que yo
I held onto hope for eight long years
Mantuve la esperanza durante ocho largos años
And by the time that I turned sixteen
Y para cuando cumplí dieciséis
I wasn't awkward, I was a real smooth talker
No era torpe, era un verdadero charlatán
With my very own pickup truck
Con mi propia camioneta
I'd take her home and if her parents weren't around
La llevaría a casa y si sus padres no estaban alrededor
She'd bring me in and give me some
Ella me traería y me daría algo
Bring me in and give me some
Me traería y me daría algo
Safe to say nowadays ol' Ray
Es seguro decir que hoy en día el viejo Ray
Coudln't keep a route very long
No podría mantener una ruta muy larga
And I'm glad the little girl's dad
Y me alegro de que el padre de la niña
Never found out what was goin' on
Nunca se enteró de lo que estaba pasando
I know he'd've kill me in a minute
Sé que me habría matado en un minuto
And he wouldn't have left no trace
Y no habría dejado rastro
Hogs'll eat about anything you give 'em
Los cerdos comerán casi cualquier cosa que les des
And they don't let nothin' go to waste
Y no dejan nada ir a waste
Don't let nothin' go to waste
No dejan nada ir a waste
This is where we dropped off the prettiest little girl
Este es el lugar donde dejamos a la niña más bonita
Same grade as me
Del mismo grado que yo
