The Joint |
| The only joint my mother burned was on the rural route |
| She sparked in old man tater’s woods so she wouldn’t be found out |
| Turned off the dome light and snuck off by herself |
| Crashed down beneath that window, fired it up, and gave it hell |
| At that hangout my daddy used to hang around |
| We watched it all go up in smoke until it all came down |
| Just like after tabs and stooge and tables got turned |
| To the only joint my momma ever burned |
| Just like someone flipped a switch, dad started coming home |
| No more eating late cause supper’s with that tater gone |
| I had my suspicions, til the night when we said grace |
| Dad said, «Forgive us, our transgressions as I lit up momma’s face.» |
| At that hangout my daddy used to hang around |
| We watched it all go up in smoke until it all came down |
| Just like after tabs and stooge and tables got turned |
| To the only joint my momma ever burned |
| Lot of small town gonna find some bloodhounds in this town |
| I’m the only one who ever found out was dad |
| At that hangout my daddy used to hang around |
| We watched it all go up in smoke until it all came down |
| Just like after tabs and stooge and tables got turned |
| To the only joint my momma ever burned |
