DWell, I walked in to one of my old haunts.
It used to Gbe a honky-tonk DHeaven.
DSome old slicker done bought the place,
An' lit it Gup like a D7-11.
DYes, they fired the band that used to play,
G"Okie From DMuskogee".
DAn' hired some dude with his hat on back'ards,
Singin' Ghip-hop and Dkaraoke.
Shoulda Gknow it was gonna happen,
DBein' this close town.
Oh but EI know a beer joint back in the woods,
That them Acity folks still ain't found.
You make a Dright at the stomp with the Fbarbed wire in it,
Where the Gold church used to Dbe.
DBetter mind that curve or the Fgravel,
Gonna throw you right Goff the road into Choctaw DCreek.
DThere's a one-lane bridge, just Fkeep it in the middle,
Pretty Gsoon that road's gonna Dend.
DWelcome to Ray Ray's Juke Joint down in the holler:
Y'all come back again.
Mmm, Mmm, ah ha.
DWe got ice-cold beer, an' chicken an' ribs,
GCookin' on the grill out Dback.
DThree plays for a quarter on the jukebox in the corner,
An' it's Gfull of Hank, Haggard an' DCash.
DThey got a long-legged waitress wearin' cut-off jeans;
She's Gquick to take your Dorder.
DBetter leave her a tip but don't give her no lip, y'all:
That Ggirl is Ray Ray's Ddaughter.
GThey'll make you feel like family,
An' Deverybody is your friend.
But Ethere's been folks messed up down there,
That ain't Anever been seen again.
You make a Dright at the stomp with the Fbarbed wire in it,
Where the Gold church used to Dbe.

Pretty Gsoon that road's gonna Dend.
