Stars And Stripes

We were all drinking at marge's one

Night

When an old cowboy came through the

Door

He took a few shaky steps

Then he started to moan

And he keeled over right on the floor

Doc came on over took his stethoscope

Out

He listened and he looked in his eyes

He said Boys stick around

I just might need your help

I'm afraid this will be a long night

Cause there's a five gallon tear a five- gallon tear

Lodged in this poor boy's heart

By the look in his eyes he ain't cried in

Years

And he's reatining a five gallon tear

Doc wrote a prescription to induce him

To cry

It was whiskey and sad country songs

We propped him up in a booth

And poured a drink down his throat

Then we turned that old wurlitzer on

Well he spluttered and he coughed

And he hung down his head

As those lonely songs worked on his

Heart

When the memories started coming six

Minutes apart

We laid him face-up on the bar

And then a five gallon tear a five gallon

Tear

Slowly welled up in his eyes

We all yelled Push and we all gave a

Cheer

When he cried that five gallon tear

That jar by the door don't hold pig feet

No more

The contents are sparkling clear

That liquid within is not moonshine or

Gin

It's a reminder to everyone here

Yeah it's a five gallon tear a five gallon

Tear

Let this be a lesson to you

Keep your sorrow inside for too many

Years

And you'll cry that five gallon tear

Buddy you'll cry

You'll cry a five gallon tear

Yeah it's a five gallon tear a five gallon

Tear

Let this be a lesson to you

Keep your sorrow inside for too many

Years

And you'll cry that five gallon tear

Yeah it's a five gallon tear a five gallon tear

Let this be a lesson to you

Keep your sorrow inside for too many years

And you'll cry that five gallon tear
