Dry Town

[G]Well the road was hot and flat as a ruler
Good [C]hundred miles between me and Missoula
That [D]vinyl top wasn't gettin' no cooler
So I [G]stopped at a quickie sack
[G]Well, I figured I'd need about a sixth of Miller
And [C]one of those things so I wouldn't spill her
I [D]asked the girl if the beer was in the back

She said

[D]It's a dry town
No beer no liquor for miles [G]around
I'd give a nickel for a [C]sip or two
[G]To wash me down
[D]Outta this dry [G]town

[G]So I turn right around, no hesitation
Cu[C]rsed the laws ruinin' the nation
[D]Waved goodbye to the boy at the station
But she [G]wouldn't go into gear

[G]He said it sounds like your transmission
You n[C]eed to Bob, but he's gone fishin'
His[D] day off, he gets a long way from here

Cause

Well back home friends you can get a dose of
Something strong from your local grocer
So I walked down till I got a little closer
To a place called Happy Johns

He said "I keep something here for colds and fevers
Down underneath's where I usually leave her
But just last night I felt a cold a comin' on"
