Album: Viva Luchenbach
[Verse 1]
DThere's a place I know where we all go,
A Glittle way down the Emroad,
It Aain't far from here, we like to Emsit and drink beer,
Play GdomiAnoes and tell Djokes.
DWe've been stopping by since  49,
(GEighteen hundred, I Emmean!)
Ain't Anothing fancy, just Emkids and ranches and
GClean white Ashirts and Djeans!
[Chorus]
GLots of smiling Afaces, Dlittle children Drunning aBmround,
GEverybody's Asomebody in an Gold hill Acountry Dtown!
GDirt daubbers Ahumming, see the Dstickleburrs Don your Bmsocks,
GSure signs you Aspent some time in Gbeautiful ALukenDbach!
[Verse 2]
DWell, let me tell you now all about the town. . .
GHow it came to Embe. . .
In the A1800's they cEmame in buggys 
To Gmeet anAd trade and buy Dfeed.
DThey built the blacksmith's shop, then later on
GThey added the cotton Emgin. . .
But the Aold dance hall and Emgeneral store's
Where it Gall bAegins and Dends!
[Chorus]
GLots of smiling Afaces, Dlittle children Drunning aBmround,
GEverybody's Asomebody in an Gold hill Acountry Dtown!
GDirt daubbers Ahumming, see the Dstickleburrs Don your Bmsocks,
GSure signs you Aspent some time in Gbeautiful ALukenDbach!
[Verse 3]
DIn the 50's people moved to cities,
GLeaving it all Embehind
ALuckenbach closed Emdown for good,
It just Gfell on a Aharder Dtime
DOne day Hondo, driving by,
GWished he had a Embeer
So he Abought the place and he Emopened it up
That's Greason wAe're all Dhere
[Chorus]
GLots of smiling Afaces, Dlittle children Drunning aBmround,
GEverybody's Asomebody in an Gold hill Acountry Dtown!
GDirt daubbers Ahumming, see the Dstickleburrs Don your Bmsocks,
GSure signs you Aspent some time in Gbeautiful ALukenDbach!
*Spoken* Here we go!
[Chorus]
GLots of smiling Afaces, Dlittle children Drunning aBmround,
GEverybody's Asomebody in an Gold hill Acountry Dtown!
GDirt daubbers Ahumming, see the Dstickleburrs Don your Bmsocks,
GSure signs you Aspent some time in Gbeautiful ALukenDbach!
GIn beatiful LAuchenDbach!

Play dominoes and tell jokes.

Ain't nothing fancy, just kids and ranches and

G A D

Clean white shirts and jeans!

[Chorus]

That's reason we're all here
