G                    
it was just after dark when the truck started down
    C                    Cm              G
the hill that leads into scranton pennsylvania .

he was A young driver , 
      C           Cm
just out on his second job . 
      G
and he was carrying the next day’s pasty fruits
      C                Cm
for everyone in that coal - scarred city
      G 
where children play without despair
      C       Cm                 G
in backyard slag - piles and folks manage to eat each day
         F       Em . . . . . 
about thirty thousand  . . . . .

he passed A sign that he should have seen , 
           C             Cm                        G
saying \"shift to low gear ,  A fifty dollar fine my friend . \"

he was thinking perhaps about the warm - breathed woman
G
who was waiting at the journey’s end . 
          C        Cm
he started down the two mile drop , 
          G                                 D
the curving road that wound from the top of the hill .

he was pushing on through the shortening miles that ran down to the depot .

just A few more miles to go , 
             C           Cm                 G
then he’d go home and have her ease his long ,  cramped day away . 
                    F . . . . 
and the smell of thirty 

G                                               C       Cm       G
he was picking speed as the city spread its twinkling lights below him . 
G                                                      C      
but he paid no heed as the shivering thoughts of the nights
  Cm                  G
delights went through him . 
     Dm  ( strum )                 Dm ( strum ) 
his foot nudged the brakes to slow him down . 
        G
but the pedal floored easy without A sound . 
        D
he said \"christ!\"
                                                       G
it was funny how he had named the only man who could save him now . 
         C        Cm
he was trapped inside A dead - end hellslide , 
G
riding on his fear - hunched back
        C              Cm      G
was every one of those yellow green
                  F
i’m telling you thirty . . . . 

G                                       C    Cm          
he barely made the sweeping curve that led into the steepest grade . 
G                                       C    Cm
and he missed the thankful passing bus at ninety miles an hour . 
              G               D
and he said \"god ,  make it A dream!\"
       F        C          G
as he rode his last ride down . 
              G               D
and he said \"god ,  make it A dream!\"
       F        C          G
as he rode his last ride down . 
        Cm ( strum ) 
and he sideswiped nineteen neat parked cars , 
        G ( strum ) 
clipped off thirteen telephone poles , 
        Cm ( strum ) 
hit two houses ,  bruised eight trees , 
        G ( strum ) 
and blue - crossed seven people . 
        Dm
it was then he lost his head , 
                                         G
not to mention an arm or two before he stopped . 
        Dm
and he smeared for four hundred yards
                                           G
along the hill that leads into scranton ,  pennsylvania . 
            F
all those thirty . . . . . 

G
you know the man who told me about it on the bus , 
                                C      Cm
as it went up the hill out of scranton ,  pennsylvania , 
      Dm
he shrugged his shoulders ,  he shook his head , 
    G
and he said  ( and this is exactly what he said ) 
   n . C . 
\"boy that sure must’ve been something . 
just imagine thirty thousand pounds of bananas . 
                  F       Em     Dm           G

G                             C        Cm

G         
and when she sees his eyes are closed , 
C                Cm         G
she sits there ,  silently weeping , 
Dm                                  G
and though she lives in scranton ,  pennsylvania
Dm                        G

            F       Em       Dm            G 
not one of thirty thousand pounds  . . . .  of bananas
