In this old country of ours
We've seen a lot of real big names Music legends and TV stars
But some who never saw fame
Like the guys, I saw on Thursday nights Down at a local bar
They lifted up my spirits
And made me want to play guitar
Yeah they would do Mustang Sally And other songs I'd heard before Playing for the rednecks after work They never got to go on tour
But when that singer sang
Straight from his heart one of his own The words left me speechless
And the music made me stoned
It was Thursday night
Everything was alright
Feeling loose
And the band was tight
Let things be how they used to be
Before this modern world started killing me
Now he sits near me taking it all in
And our sad eyes meet we know we can't repeat The past ever again
Then the jukebox plays
A song we both knew
And we raise a toast to the country
That we loved way back then
Honky tonk wheelchair
Do you know who you're rolling around Wrinkled face and white hair
Nursing his Royal Crown
He may look like a tired old man
But I was his biggest fan
Cause he ripped my heart out with his songs

When he was leader of the band
Sitting on a rolling throne
He doesn't sing anymore
His bandmates no longer living Now just a part of the local lore
I see him in this beer joint Every now and again
His fires have all but burned out But I can remember when
It was Thursday night
Everything was alright
Feeling loose
And the band was tight
Let things be like they used to be
Before this modern world started killing me
Before I started seeing things like that old man sees
