Ivan's got the apron on, Harry's got his props
Ken is stickin' out his tongue, just hope that Hunter stops
Mom's singin' a capella, Pete's on his favorite stool
Sondra's back in Greensboro, so everything is cool
(chorus):
And we're holdin' down this corner while the realtors circle 'round
They're tellin' us that progress is pourin' concrete on the ground
But the only thing we're pourin' is a pitcher for our friends
Been sittin' here since '52, we'll be here when it ends |
Pickups in the parkin' lot, a Mercedes at the bar
Joyce claims she saw Elvis out back in that old car
It's MacArthur, not McDonald's, ain't no drive-thru in this yard
Just some crazy natives laughin' loud and playin' hard
(chorus)
Here's to Mary, Ned and Smitty, Doc Faulk and many more
and a special toast to Mr. Jack, who opened this fine door
So drop in for a cold one, more talk than hanky-panky
No northern dudes with attitudes, we don't like cranky yankees
(chorus) |
