Backyard Bar

Backyard Bar

I know a place

Down at the end of Johnson Court

It is a place where anyone can go

Lawyer or miner

It doesn’t matter

Everyone’s welcome

Coor’s starts the night

When the sun goes down

Under the open, cloudless sky

Watching the girls in their cutoffs

Especially the ones who drink shots

It is a place for everyone to have fun

Listening to Johnny, Charlie, and Waylon

And maybe one or two by good ol’ Willie

Dancing and singing to your favorite songs

You can become someone they cannot really be

And just drink until the sun comes up again

Then it’s the last shot of Jack Daniels

And a long crawl home

Time to forget whatever you did that night

And make plans to come back tomorrow

Back to your favorite backyard bar
