HEAVY TAFFIC AHEAD (Bill Monroe)
from "True Life Blues, The Songs Of Bill Monroe" (Sugar Hill, SHCD-2209)

       G
On Saturday night, when our work is done,
       G
We load our music up on the run.
           G       C                         G
Heavy traffic ahead, heavy traffic ahead.
               D                                      G
We gotta ramble, ramble, heavy traffic ahead.

We pulled out of Nashville, right on time,
The Blugrass Special fits down the line.
Heavy traffic ahead, heavy traffic ahead.
We gotta ramble, ramble, heavy traffic ahead.

Travel around, state to state,
The Bluegrass Boys are never late.
Heavy traffic ahead, heavy traffic ahead.
We gotta ramble, ramble, heavy traffic ahead.

Late in evening, about sundown,
You know we've come to some other town.
Heavy traffic ahead, heavy traffic ahead.
We gotta ramble, ramble, heavy traffic ahead.

We do our work, with the good will,
On Friday night we head for Nashville.
Heavy traffic ahead, heavy traffic ahead.
We gotta ramble, ramble, heavy traffic ahead.
