If they ever drop the big one, I got me a plan
I won′t be in no bunker eatin' peaches from a can
I′ll be holed up in the basement, with two very special guestsA big ol' stack of Flatt and Scruggs and a bag of Willie's best
Goin′ out on a high note
A blaze of glory lit in my left hand
I′m goin' out on a high note
Like a tenor in an old hillbilly band
Mmhm
Now it ain′t Armageddon, but the weekend's finally here
Yeah, some folks wanna rock and roll and drink a downtown beer
Oh, but me and my sweet baby just crossed the great divide
And we′re rollin' like a banjo straight into Telluride
Goin′ out on a high note
A blaze of glory lit in my left hand
I'm goin' out on a high note
Like a tenor in an old hillbilly band
Ain′t gonna run, ain′t gonna hide
I'm just gonna take a ride
Yeah, I′ll be fine on judgement day
With a G-Run and a J
I'm goin′ out on a high note
A blaze of glory lit in my left hand
I'm goin′ out (I'm going out) on a high note
Like a tenor in an old hillbilly band
Like a tenor in an old hillbilly band
Yeah, that's my plan
