Lyrics The Old Side Of Town - Tom T. Hall

The Old Side Of Town

Ain’t it strange how people change and almost over night
Who once was a country girl is now a socialite
We’re proud for you but when you’re through and seek some common ground
Oh we miss you on the old side of town
We still drink cokes and tell old jokes and we bowl at splits and strikes
Country music still plays on a jukebox every night
Society is not for me but I can still be found oh we miss you on the old side
of town
RSVP is not for me and black tie’s not my style
I thought you’d like to know cause you ain’t been here for awhile
We read about your tour de force we’re glad you get around
But we miss you on the old side of town
We still drink cokes and tell old jokes and we bowl at splits and strikes
George Jones is still a hero on the jukebox every night
Society is not for me but I can still be found oh we miss you on the old side
of town
Babe we miss you on the old side of town
