C.w. MccallBlack Bear RoadBlack Bear Road(c.w. mccall, bill fries, chip davis)Me an' rj an' the kids was on a camp-out in the mountains, and we had us one'a them u-drive-'em army jeep cars which we rented from a fella by the name of kubozke for thirty bucks a day, buy youAlong the way, take a rabbit's foot and leave a pint of blood for a dee-posit.And he 'splained it all to us how we was supposed to get to telluride, which is fifty miles away by way of the regular highway, however, there was a shortcut but unless we had drove the black beAd before, we'd better be off to stay, stay in bed and sleep late. (pay no attention to the gitar there.)Well, we took up off'n the highway and we come upon a sign says black bear road. you don't have to be crazy to drive this road, but it helps. i says, rj, this must the shortcutKubozke was talkin' about. she didn't pay no mind, 'cause she was makin' peanut butter sandwiches for the kids in the back seat throwin' rocks and drinkin' kool-aid and playin' count-the-Se-plates. but they wasn't havin' too much fun a-countin' license plate or cars, 'cause there weren't no other cars.We went about a mile-and-a-half in about four hours, busted off the right front fender, tore a hole in the oil pan on a rock as big as a hall closet. went over a bump and spilt the kool-aid andEne stuck his bolo knife right through the convertible top and the dog threw up all over the back seat. peanut butter don't agree with him, you see.So we had to stop and take off the top and air everything out and clean it up. the dog run off and rj says she felt her asthma comin' on. i was sittin' there wonderin' what to do when the en-tirNic san joo-wan u-drive-'em army jeep car sank in the mud. at thirteen thousand feet above sea level.Well, we shoveled it out and ate our lunch, the dog made a yellow hole in the snow and roy gene got out his instamatic and took a snapshot of it. mary elizabeth drawed a picture of the road; itD like a whole bunch a' zs and ws all strung together. and rj took one look at it and said that the only way that jeep car is goin' down that road is over her dead body. then a rock slipped outUnder the wheel and the u-drive-'em army jeep car went right over the edge of the cliff. yahoo-oo-oo-oo!doggone-it, roy gene! how many times do i have to 'splain it to you? when i tell you to put a rock under the wheel, i mean rock! now look at that, what you have there is no bigger'n a grapT.
