"Ray Ray's Juke Joint" lyrics
"Ray Ray's Juke Joint"
Well, I walked in to one of my old haunts
It used to be a honky-tonk heaven
Some ol' slicker done bought the place
An' lit it up like a 7-11
Yes, they fired the band that used to play
'Okie From Muskogee'
An' hired some dude with his hat on back'ards
Singin' hip-hop and karaoke
I should'a knowed it was gonna happen
Bein' this close to town
Aw but I know a beer joint back in the woods
That them city folks still ain't found
You make a right at the stump with the barbed wire in it
Where the old church used to be
Better mind that curve or the gravel gonna throw you
Right off in the Choctaw Creek
There's a one-lane bridge, just keep it in the middle
Pretty soon that road's gonna end
Welcome to Ray Ray's Juke Joint, down in the holler
Y'all come back again
Mm-hmm
They got ice-cold beer an' chicken an' ribs
Cookin' on the grill out back
Three plays for a quarter on the jukebox in the corner
An' it's full of Hank, Haggard, an' Cash
They got a long-legged waitress wearin' cut-off jeans
She's quick to take your order
Better leave her a tip but don't give her no lip
Y'all that girl is Ray Ray's daughter
They'll make you feel like family
An' everybody is your friend
But there's been folks messed up down there
That ain't never been seen again
You make a right at the stump with the barbed wire in it
Where the old church used to be
Better mind that curve or the gravel gonna throw you
Right off in the Choctaw Creek
There's a one-lane bridge, just keep it in the middle
Pretty soon that road's gonna end
Welcome to Ray Ray's Juke Joint, down in the holler
Y'all come back again
Yeah you make a right at the stump with the barbed wire in it
Where the old church used to be
Better mind that curve or the gravel gonna throw you
Right off in the Choctaw Creek
There's a one-lane bridge, just keep it in the middle
Pretty soon that road gonna end
Welcome to Ray Ray's Juke Joint, down in the holler
Y'all come back again
Welcome to Ray Ray's Juke Joint down in the holler
Y'all come back again
Aw, don't be scared
Nice place
Mm

I was silently celebrating my first class upgrade
Laughing at my jeans and my boots beside those high dollar shoes and armani suits

Joe Diffie - "Pickup Man" Well, I got my first truck when I was three
Drove a hundred thousand miles on my knees
Hauled marbles and rocks and thought twice before
I hauled a Barbie Doll bed for the girl next door
She tried...
Jake Owen - "The Bottle And Me" Didn't come in here the old sympathy
And a honky tonk please, the last thing I need
Just set me up with your best whiskey
Yeah, this is just between the the bottle and me
I don't wanna talk, I don't...
Tyler Booth - "87 Octane" Our life is a back road
Cold beer, cane pole
Drag off a Marlboro Light
We live for the weekend
Pick a spot 'n' back in
Livin' on love all night
Shooting more holes in the city limit signs
On the back...
Chris Cagle - "My Life's Been A Country Song" Now I know how Merle Haggard felt when he sang the words mama tried
And I've lived those teenage
Friday nights the pyrmid of cans in the pale moon light
And that Summer Becky broke my heart...
