The Joint

[Verse 1] The only joint my mama burned, was on a rural route She parked in old man Taylor's woods So she wouldn't be found out Turned off her dome light, snuck off by herself Crouched down beneath that window Fired it up and gave it hell [Chorus] That hangout my daddy used to hang around We watched it all go up in smoke until it all came down Just like that the taps and stools and tables got turned To the only joint my mama ever burned Burned [Verse 2] Just like someone flipped a switch, dad started comin' home No more eatin' late, cold suppers with that tavern gone I had my suspicions, till one night when we said grace Dad said forgive us our transgressions A smile lit up mama's face [Chorus] Like that hangout my daddy used to hang around We watched it all go up in smoke until it all came down Just like that, the taps and stools and tables got turned To the only joint my mama ever burned Burned Burned Burned Burned Burned Burned Burned [Bridge] Of all the small town Barney Fifes and bloodhounds in this town I'm only the one who ever found out about [Chorus] That hangout my daddy used to hang around We watched it all go up in smoke until it all came down Just like at the taps and stools and tables got turned To the only joint my mama ever burned Burned Burned Burned Burned Burned Burned Burned [Outro] Burned Burned Burned Burned Burned Burned Burned Burned
