I walk myself to Grady's just like I often do 
Where the beer is fifty cents a glass and the jukebox free til noon 
And I always play Hank Wiliams just like my daddy did 
Where it's laid out on the table and the meaning never hid 

Think I'll take me down to Shelbyville if I can hustle up the fare
I hear there's work with horses and my brother's living there 
And we'll go out for the evening but his wife won't let me stay 
He'll do just what she asks him he's always been that way 

Maybe I'll hit the Baptist church, I think it's Wednesday night,
Get another pamphlet bout the darkness and the light 
Maybe I will walk the aisle I don't do it for the show 
When I hear the altar calling boys I know it's time to go

I'm old and near forgotten save the neighbor with the meals 
Death lays waiting in the shadows and that's the way he deals 
But I close my eyes and kiss her and she's close enough to feel 
We're driving to Montgomery 
One hand upon the wheel
