Oh I burnt the little roadside tavern down the only one for miles and miles around
Now it`s pile of ashes on the ground
Yeah I burnt the little roadside tavern down
Oh I warned my man just stay away from that tavern or I`ll burn it down someday
I think he thought it was a joke until he smelled the smoke
Then he screaned that woman finally got her way
Oh I burnt the little roadside...
[ steel ]
He acted like a man who`d lost its mind after he bought all those bottles of wine
You should have heard him talk and should as he tried to put it out
Drowin` water on the bucket at a time
Oh I burnt the little roadside...
Yes I burnt the little roadside tavern down
