"The Real Country" lyrics
"The Real Country"
With all that you have, the one thing you touch turns to gold
You've got no chance for a lighter load
And nobody could with all of them things that you know
You're low-down no-good, you're dying, oh
Gonna sleep on Sunday
Wipe the weekend away one more time
While the rest of the country
Gone and drowned in that whiskey and rye
The one thing I've found worth havin' around lettin' go
Is a glass in my hand with no drink to pour
Had I been renowned for all of the lovin' I fake
I'd be creepin' out, you're still wide awake
Now I spend my money
Downtown on women and sin
While the rest of the country
Gone and drowned in that railroad gin
Now I'm alone
Kicking these [?] out the window
I'm singing through the radio
Gonna sleep on Sunday
Wipe the weekend away one more time
While the rest of the country
Gone and drowned in that whiskey and rye
Now I spend my money
Downtown on women and sin
While the rest of the country
Gone and drowned in that railroad gin

Red dirt plowboys, asphalt monkeys

Jerry Jeff Walker - "Sangria Wine" My friends come for Saturday night
Man, it's nice to make up some sangria wine
It's organic, and it comes from the vine
It's also legal, and it gets you so high
Yeah, and I love that sangria wine...
