The Joint

歌詞

The only joint my momma burned was on the rural route She parked in old man Taylor's woods so she wouldn't be found out Turned off her dome light and snuck off by herself Crouched down beneath that window, fired it up and gave it hell Chorus: That hangout my daddy used to hang around We watched it all go up in smoke until it all came down Just like that, the taps and stools and the tables got turned To the only joint my momma ever burned, burned Just like someone flipped a switch, dad started coming home No more eating late cold suppers with that tavern gone I had my suspicions till one night when we said Grace Dad said, forgive us our transgressions, that smile lit up momma's face Like Repeat Chorus Of all the small town Barney Fifes And bloodhounds in this town I'm the only one that ever found out about Repeat Chorus
