Drivinâ down a dusty road he saw that diamond back
Someone just ran over it. Bobby said, âIâm gonna stop for that!â
He picked it up and brought it home and threw it on the grill
Saved one special part for me and I believe its power is real
*I put a rattlesnake rattler in this old guitar
It turned wood wire frets and glue into a shining star
Clear as the whistle of an old freight train
Warmer than the patter of a Carolina rain
Steady as the rhythm of the wheels of an ole box car
I put a rattlesnake rattler in this old guitar
Some say itâs a mountain thing, some say Iâm a fool
But they ainât heard this old box ring, and now who is foolingâ who
**So if you think you hear the whistle of an old freight train, the pitter and the patter of a Carolina rain. It ainât just the rhythm of the wheels of an ole box car. Itâs the rattlesnake rattler in this old guitar
