Intro
D# F#
[Verse]
G#
Stanley by God Terry knew exactly how it felt
C#
To play a George Jones song in a white leather belt
G#
With matching shoes, polyester blues
C#
At the Pine Grove Lounge for all you can drink booze
D# F#
G# bloody bucket of ol broads and men
D# F#
Who had been clean shaven when they started at 10
[Verse]
G#
When Stanley got goin' with mama by his side
C#
And daddy on bass singin' Charlie Pride
G#
Kaw-lija, Folsom, Stand By Your Man
C#
Just a few you might hear from the band
D# F#
Nobody gets it like Tom T. Hall
D# F#
Sad spun laughs off a disco ball
[Verse]
G#
They could kinda play but they could really drink
C#
Somebody'd finally say exactly what they think
G#
And Pine-Sol, sawdust and last night's beer
C#
And a bolo tie on a rear view mirror
D# F#
There's a fighter in every dancin' fool
D# F#
I watched all as a baby from a black barstool
[Fill]
D# F#
[Verse]
G#
Stanley's wife Carol didn't care to hang around
C#
She liked her drink, just didn't take it in town
G#
They'd knock down drag out every weekend
C#
By Sunday somebody's face was on the mend
D# F#
And passed out cold on the concrete porch
D# F#
Love sure is a bitch when your liver is scorched
[Verse]
G#
South end of the county had a whole nother bar
C#
Where the band would play since it wasn't very far
G#
There were more strange women, even more smoke
C#
In a field by a legendary live oak
D# F#
Carol came in hot on Hennessy
D# F#
Left and wrapped her car round that live oak tree
[Fill]
D# F#
[Verse]
G#
I remember in the morning mama dropping the phone
C#
I remember hushed words and hearing daddy groan
G#
They had a pretty daughter, shy little Sherry
C#
We went and picked her up from the school library
D# F#
She was 16 and could sing so sweet
D# F#
And on a really good night she'd babysit me
[Verse]
G#
After all that it gets kinda cloudy
C#
But 2 years later she was Miss Sumter County
G#
As small town, trashy, tragic goes
C#
She feathered her hair and sang The Rose
D# F#
The whole Cow Palace knew just how she felt
D# F#
And Stanley By God Terry wore a white leather belt
[Repeat]
D# F#
And country music and hillbilly pain
D# F#
Make stories that'll hurt ya, and hold ya like a chain
[Outro]
