Work Was Through (feat. Aaron Watson)

(Shane Smith)

Well this southern wind sings to me

Like a shiner band parade

Like an old flipped over six string

For some lefty they call Cobain

(Aaron Watson)

And the man in black right down to his shoes

Fell in love with June

And the roaring of the inmates

As he sang Cocaine Blues

(Shane Smith)

Where did they go, I know where to

You think they knew or had no clue

You think I told them boys "You've done everything I needed you to do"

You think they had done something wrong, they even wrote it in their songs

You think they thought it took too long for them to pay their dues

When their work was through

(Aaron Watson)

And two birds fell down in Tennessee

Patsy Cline and Mr. Reeves

And Four Walls still plays at the Broken Spoke

Where Bob Wills is still the king

(Shane Smith)

And the fire flies high from the strat guitar lyin' down in Jimi's knees

And it's put out by a Texas Flood as Mr. Vaughan begins to sing

(Shane Smith)

Where did they go, I know where to

You think they knew or had no clue

You think I told them boys "You've done everything I needed you to do"

You think they had done something wrong, they even wrote it in their songs

You think they thought it took too long for them to pay their dues

When their work was through

(Shane Smith and Aaron Watson)

Where did they go, I know where to

You think they knew or had no clue

You think I told them boys "You've done everything I needed you to do"

You think they had done something wrong, they even wrote it in their songs

You think they thought it took too long for them to pay their dues

When their work was through
