Arkansas Line    by Elvin Bishop
DWay down in the country          People sure do get funky  
Down by the Arkansas LinAe
Saturday night a big night of cutting shooting and fist fights 
Down by the Arkansas linDe
Folks down there really rise the roof  Drinking old grand-dads 100 proof
Down by the Arkansas LinAe.
Whiskey flowin just like water  Beer selling for a quarter
Down by the Arkansas LinDe.
Down by the Arkansas LAine  Saturday night oh boy now ain't that sweDet
Down by the Arkansas Line  won't get me Aback to Tulsa in 1 pieDce.   Intermission
DFolk down there drink home made beer  Things ain't changed in a hundred years
Down by the Arkansas LAine
Now I met a woman and she really did thrill me 
But her old man beat me till I begged  him to kill me       Down by the Arkansas DLine. 
Down by the Arkansas LinAe  Saturday night oh boy now ain't that sweDet
Down by the Arkansas LiAne  won't get me back to Tulsa in 1 pieDce.

Arkansas Line by Elvin Bishop

Way down in the country People sure do get funky

Down by the Arkansas Line

Saturday night a big night of cutting shooting and fist fights

Down by the Arkansas line

Folks down there really rise the roof Drinking old grand-dads 100 proof

Down by the Arkansas Line.

Whiskey flowin just like water Beer selling for a quarter

Down by the Arkansas Line.

A D

Down by the Arkansas Line Saturday night oh boy now ain't that sweet

A D

Down by the Arkansas Line won't get me back to Tulsa in 1 piece. Intermission

Folk down there drink home made beer Things ain't changed in a hundred years

Down by the Arkansas Line

Now I met a woman and she really did thrill me

But her old man beat me till I begged him to kill me Down by the Arkansas Line.

A D

Down by the Arkansas Line Saturday night oh boy now ain't that sweet

A D

Down by the Arkansas Line won't get me back to Tulsa in 1 piece.
