Trent Willmon - Dry Country Lyrics




Jesus turned the water into wine
So it seems to me it shouldn't be a crime
But there's a way of thinkin' 'round here
That astounds me

You can work all day in the summer sweat
And go down to the store to get your whistle wet
But a Dr. Pepper's all you're gonna get
Sorry, It's a dry county

Chorus:
But if I take a ride up 35
Just across the county line
There's a neon sign and a cute little waitress
Smilin' at me
If I stay and hang around here
Keep beggin' my buddies for bootleg beer
My dreams might whither up
And die around me
It's a dry county

It ain't rained around here in so damn long
You can see it when an old timer tells a joke
You don't smile you just keep playn' dominoes
And drink your coffee

Thirty miles to the east takes a lot more green
And they got more green for the football team
And 'round here
We ain't seen a winnin' streak since the 80's
It's a dry county

Chorus:
But if I take a ride up 35
Just across the county line
There's a neon sign and a cute little waitress
Smilin' at me
If I stay and hang around here
Keep beggin' my buddies for bootleg beer
My dreams might whither up
And die around me
It's a dry county

Last time I took Becky to the drive-in
I couldn't even talk her into a little kiss
You couldn't loosen her up with
A whole can of WD-40

Chorus:
But if I take a ride up 35
Just across the county line
There's a neon sign and a cute little waitress
Smilin' at me
I can stay and hang around here
Waste away the best of my years
So good bye yall
Promise I'll call
I've had about all
Of this dry county

It's a dry county
