Well I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison
And I went to pick her up in the rain
But before I could get to the station in the pick-up truck
She got runned over by a damned old train

Somehow or another being Lynchburg, someone abiding in too much Jack Daniels came into play.

If you play country music backwards, the woman you love

Comes back with your truck and your dog with your money.

And your grandpa is alive again. ;)

I love David Allen Coe!

Here’s a fave of mine. The song has been covered by a lot of people, but I like this version by K T Oslin:

You Call Everybody Darlin’

Lynchburg is in a dry county.

They make lots of Jack there, but you can’t buy, or drink, a drop of it.

The distillery’s visitor center and gift shop is in the next county over....

Bounty hunters are not hired by the state, but by the bail bondsmen.

Bounty hunters do not work for the state...they work for bail bondsmen.

The States don’t hire bounty hungers.

Did you miss the part in the article where Howard fired first?


All of the above is true but why spoil a good comment with facts..
