Trouble on the Turnpike - Roger Miller, Gordon Terry

Well it wasn’t long ago that my true blue Sally

Said she’s gettin' tired of livin' in the valley

Went to go back to Louisian' see Big Papa he’s a gumbo man

Trouble on the turnpike trouble on the road

Trouble on the turnpike too big a load

Yeah ha-hoopa-do-ee goodbye valley for my Sally and me

Well to keep Sally happy I’ll do what I can

To keep her that way takes a whole lot of man

A Louisiana woman is tired of California ain’t enough gumbo here for me

Trouble on the turnpike…
