Dry Country
Jesus turned the water into wine So it seems to me it shouldn't be a crime But there's a way of thinkin' 'round here That astounds me You can work all day in the summer sweat And go down to the store to get your whistle wet But a Dr. Pepper's all you're gonna get Sorry, It's a dry county Chorus: But if I take a ride up 35 Just across the county line There's a neon sign and a cute little waitress Smilin' at me If I stay and hang around here Keep beggin' my buddies for bootleg beer My dreams might whither up And die around me It's a dry county It ain't rained around here in so damn long You can see it when an old timer tells a joke You don't smile you just keep playn' dominoes And drink your coffee SongtexteThirty miles to the east takes a lot more green And they got more green for the football team And 'round here We ain't seen a winnin' streak since the 80's It's a dry county Chorus: But if I take a ride up 35 Just across the county line There's a neon sign and a cute little waitress Smilin' at me If I stay and hang around here Keep beggin' my buddies for bootleg beer My dreams might whither up And die around me It's a dry county Last time I took Becky to the drive-in I couldn't even talk her into a little kiss You couldn't loosen her up with A whole can of WD-40 Chorus: But if I take a ride up 35 Just across the county line There's a neon sign and a cute little waitress Smilin' at me I can stay and hang around here Waste away the best of my years So good bye yall Promise I'll call I've had about all Of this dry county It's a dry county Aus Songtexte Mania
