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
