Crying in a corner booth like some old country song Giving up on life and love when Thomas Davis came along He said little dear, hey listen here, chin up and dry your eyes That was then and this is now and we've only got one life Whatever's got you down, there's just one thing you need to know No need to fear cause these part round here, Thomas Davis runs the show You can call me Bubba, I'll take you into the fold Better hold on tight, we're going for a ride down on Gumbranch road
Let's get high on the bottle/but we'll keep it on the low Do some things we can't tell our Mamas On the Thomas Davis Show
Tom's mama ran a restaurant employin' half the town We worked hard for tips but played for free every night when the sun'd go down We lived and lied and loved and cried led by the Jacksonville King But with most of us growing and Tom still goin I said listen here to me Lord knows you love your babies but once they're off to be Ain't no tellin where the night might lead or where you'll lay your head King o' this town needs to slow down, stop worryin us all to death A tear in his eye, he said That ships gone by so don't you waste your breath
Let's get high on the bottle/but we'll keep it on the low Do some things we can't tell our Mamas On the Thomas Davis Show
Three months later, I woke in a sweat in the middle of the night Voice in the distance said chin up girl, it's gonna be alright Thomas Davis, Jacksonville, Twenty Nine years old Survived by two babies he went out at eighty last night on Gumbranch Road So here's to all the Bubbas who love Cash and cars and honies Who save us from the worst of days and make our problems funny Whose hearts of gold won't do what they're told but dry the tears from our eyes Raise a glass with me to the memory of all those blessed times
We got high on the bottle/but we keep it on the low Do some things we can't tell our Mamas On the Thomas Davis Show Let's get high on the bottle/but we'll keep it on the low Do some things we can't tell our Mamas On the Thomas Davis ShowTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
