The Joint

The Joint 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 That hang out my daddy used to hang around We watched it all go up in smoke until it all came down Just like that the tabs 'n stools and tables got turned To the only joint my mama ever burned... burned Just like someone flipped a switch, dad started comin' home No more eatin' late, cause supper's with that tavern gone I had my suspicions, till one night when we said grace Dad said forgive us our tran'gression A smile lit up mama's face Like 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 [?] 'n stools and tables got turned To the only joint my mama ever burned Burned... burned... burned Burned... burned... burned... burned Of all the small town Barney Fife's And bloodhounds in this town I'm only the one who ever found out about 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 [?] 'n stools and tables got turned To the only joint my mama ever burned Burned... burned... burned... burned Burned [x9]
