Ain't it strange how people change, and almost overnight
|
Who once was a country girl is now a socialite
|
We're proud for you, but when you're through and seek some common ground
|
Oh, we miss you on the old side of town
|
|
We still drink cokes and tell old jokes and bowl at Splits and Strikes
|
Country music still plays on the jukebox every night
|
Society is not for me, but I can still be found
|
Oh, we miss you on the old side of town
|
|
RSVP is not for me, and black tie's not my style
|
I thought you'd like to know 'cause you ain't been here for awhile
|
We read about your tour-de-force, we're glad you get around
|
But we miss you on the old side of town
|
|
We still drink cokes and tell old jokes and we bowl at Splits and Strikes
|
George Jones is still a hero on the jukebox every night
|
Society is not for me, but I can still be found
|
Oh, we miss you on the old side of town
|
Babe, we miss you on the old side of town
|
