Dry Town
Lyricist:David Rawlings, Gillian Welch
Well, the road was hot and flat as a ruler Good hundred miles 'tween me and Missoula That vinyl top wasn't gettin' no cooler So I stopped at a quickie sack
And I figured I'd need about a six of miller And one of them things so I wouldn't spill her And I asked the girl if the beer was in the back
She said, 'It's a dry town No beer, no liquor for miles around I'd give a nickel for a sip or two To wash me down out of this dry town'
So I turned right around, no hesitation Cursed the laws ruinin' the nation Waved goodbye to the boy at the station But she wouldn't go into gear
He said, 'It sounds like your transmission You need Bob but he's gone fishing On his day off he gets a long way from here' Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
'Cause it's a dry town No beer, no liquor for miles around I'd give a nickel for a sip or two To wash me down out of this dry town
Well, back home friends you can get a dose of Something strong from your local grocer So I walked down 'til I came a little closer To a place called Happy John's
He said, 'I keep some here for colds and fevers And down underneath's where I usually leave her But just last night I felt a cold a comin' on'
Now it's a dry town No beer, no liquor for miles around I'd give a nickel for a sip or two To wash me down out of this dry town
I need a sip or two To wash me down out of this dry town
