My name is Frank Davis, drive a Dixie 109 
      B                      E 
I was out on Highway 17, just south of Camden Line 
 
It was down there in the heart of Wilsonville where I met my fate 
        B                                        E 
She was standing outside the bar room said she was waiting for a date 
      A                         E 
But I knew that that was just a line 
      A                               E 
And I knew I was messin' with a losin' kind 
 
 
Well I knew what we were both doing, and I knew that you can't win 
             B                                                        E 
But when the light turned green, I reached across the seat, popped the lock and she slid in 
 
She said she liked Mexican music, she knew a place if I had the time 
        B 
Well we had a few drinks and we danced a while 
             E 
I pulled her close, she didn't mind 
           A                     E 
And what I knew kinda slipped my mind 
         B                                     E 
And I couldn't resist her messin' with a losin' kind 
 
 
Well we drove around in my Buick, getting drunk and having fun 
        B                                    E 
Well we ended up at this Best Western out on Highway 101 
 
It was around 3 a.m. we went out to this empty little road side bar 
             B 
It was there the cash register was open  
             E 
It was there I hit that guy to hard 
      A                                  E 
But I knew when I hit him for the second time 
           B                                      E 
That one attracts the other when you're the losin' kind

Well I grabbed her hand to get out of there 
 
And I felt like I was gonna be sick 
         B                                                E 
And a half hour later the sleet started come down and that highway got pretty slick 
 
I seen some lights in my rear-view mirror I guess I panicked and gave her a gun 
            B                                 E 
Well then I wrapped us around a telephone pole south on Highway 101 
 
Well she just stumbled out on to the banks 
 
And sat down in a pout 
       B                                E 
Well I kicked out the driver side window but buddy when I got out 
 
Well all I had to greet me was a Highway Patrolman's 45  
   B                                               E 
He looked at the wreak and then he said "Son you're lucky to be alive" 
               A                                E 
"Well Sir I'll think that one over if you don't mind 
         B                                          E 
Now luck ain't much good to you when it's the losin' kind"
