One Light Town

The last place I flew was off the handle,

Talking was done it was fight or flight,

He set me off like a roman candle,

Behind some bar is where I'll sleep tonight,

I ain't never been one to back down,

I've been in a few and lost a few rounds,

These knuckles are covered in scars,

Thanks to ol' Jack and honkytonk bars,

Something about those swinging doors,

Mud on my boots and dirt on the floors,

Picking the girls up, and putting the whiskey down,

Not much else to do, in a one light town, in a one light town

I should have left when I turned eighteen,

Got on that bus and heading for Army green,

But I had a record for selling some pot,

The other side of the tracks is as far as I got,

Twenty one came and I found the bottle,

In a old S 10 full throttle,

My first real fight was against my old man,

I iced down my eye with a coors light can

Something about those swinging doors,

Mud on my boots and dirt on the floors,

Picking the girls up, and putting the whiskey down,

Not much else to do, in a one light town, in a one light town

Mama tired to push the king james version,

While I got stitched up by a old drunk surgeon,

With a few missing teeth my brother didn't say a word,

That's how we do it where I come from

Something about those swinging doors,

Mud on my boots, and dirt on the floors,

Picking the girls up, and putting the whiskey down,

Not much else to do, in a one light town, in a one light town

Something about those swinging doors,

Mud on my boots, and dirt on the floors,

Picking the girls up, and putting the whiskey down,

Not much else to do, in a one light town, in a one light town

Something about those swinging doors,

Mud on my boots, and dirt on the floors,

Picking the girls up, and putting the whiskey down,

Not much else to do, in a one light town, in a one light town

Yeah not much else to do in a one light town
