The only joint my mother burned was on the rural route
She sparked in old man Taylor's woods so she wouldn't be found out
Turned off her dome light and snuck off by herself
Crouched down beneath that window, fired it up, and gave it hell
Chorus:
That the hangout my daddy used to hang around
We watched it all go up in smoke until it all came down
Just like that, after taps and stools and tables got turned
To the only joint my momma ever burned down
Just like someone flipped a switch, dad started coming home
No more eating late cause supper's with that tavern gone
I had my suspicions, 'til one night when we said Frace
Dad said, "Forgive us for our transgressions, that smile lit up momma's face
Like
Chorus:
That the hangout my daddy used to hang around
We watched it all go up in smoke until it all came down
Just like that, after taps and stools and tables got turned
To the only joint my momma ever burned down
Of all the small town Barney Fifes
And bloodhounds in this town
I'm the only one that ever found out about
Chorus:
That the hangout my daddy used to hang around
We watched it all go up in smoke until it all came down
Just like that, after taps and stools and tables got turned
To the only joint my momma ever burned down
