Soul Mechanic

Lyrics

Music & Lyrics: Chuck Knott

On a riddled rainy day now, on the mountain; old Flat Top

In Western Carolina, just watch the temperature drop

And the days about as short as my temper to rise up

Muster up some motivation and brew a cup

I’ve been performing poorly, but pause before you panic

I just need a soul mechanic

I know a guy named Worley, he’s got all the schematics

He’s a soul mechanic

I been thinkin’ lately, that I greatly need a change

My oil’s thick like quick sand, like a tar pit in my brain

My alignment’s pullin’ ditchward, and I can’t stay in my lane

Check Engine Lights like an ambulance parade

Hey there now Worley! I’m morally meltin’ down, my mind is manic

I need a soul mechanic

We'll get to town surely, take Cane Creek then cut left at the paddock

Keep calm, less erratic

Don't know how much further I can drive

On these bald tires, a few more miles

Wipers slappin' side to side

My windshield's blinded, too much fog to see, oh to see

Hey there now Worley! If the problem’s miniscule or titanic

Just need a soul mechanic

Gotta hum your own tune, if the radio is all static

A new antenna; ain’t automatic

Don't know how much further I can drive

On these bald tires, a few more miles

Wipers slappin' side to side

My windshield's blinded, too much fog to see

Sure be taking his advice

With your soul you best not roll the dice

I'm prepared to pay a proper price

Knowin’ full well right, nothing in this life is free, oh nothin’s free

Hey there now Worley! You’re fixin’ up my world, so charismatic

You’re my soul mechanic

Hey there now Worley! You’re fixin’ up my world, so charismatic

You’re my soul mechanic

Hey there now Worley! You’re fixin’ up my world, so charismatic

You’re my soul mechanic

Hey there now Worley! You’re fixin’ up my world, so charismatic

You’re my soul mechanic

I'll be good to go down any windin’ road

Shed your heavy load. Trusted tread’ll take you home

I'll be good to go down any windin’ road

Shed your heavy load. Trusted tread’ll take you home

Woah, down any winding road

Woah, it’ll take you home

Oh, down any winding road

Woah, it’ll take you home

Shed your heavy load, trusted tread’ll take you home
