"Drinkin' In A Dry County" lyrics

There's some sayings 'bout drinking
How it drowns out the hurt
Back then in Winfield, Kansas
That took a lotta work

So we drive to Ponca City
To buy a bottle of Jack
Take it back to his front porch
And pour himself a glass

Yeah the law said turn to Jesus
But prayer can't change the fact
That she promised him forever
Then she took forever back
They say they made the law for families
Well he ain't got one no more
So he's drinking in a dry county
Till the very last pour

There's a lot of rumors flying
Lot of holy man opinions
They think it's a devil's game he's playing
But they don't know the hell he's living

Yeah the law said turn to Jesus
But prayer can't change the fact
That she promised him forever
Then she took forever back
They say they made the law for families
Well he ain't got one no more
So he's drinking in a dry county
Till the very last pour

Yeah the law said turn to Jesus
But prayer can't change the fact
She promised him forever
Then she took forever back
They say they made the law for families
Well he ain't got one no more
So he's drinking in a dry county
Till the very last pour

Drinking in a dry county
Till the very last pour
