Turnpike Troubadours – Bossier City lyrics
Well, Robbie's got a brand new girlfriend
She's got a script for pills
These here, man they're the good ones
Counting those ten dollar bills
What Mama don't know won't hurt her
That's what he'd always say
He's going down to Bossier City
Gonna drink his cares away
He's got a thousand dollars
That's more than the saw mill's paying
Lucy she's at her mamas
But he'll lose it all today
He's got a thousand dollars
That's just some gasoline
You know that boy, well he can gamble
Like you ain't never seen
What Mama don't know won't hurt her
That's what he'd always say
He's going down to Bossier City
Gonna drink his cares away
He's pulling down on that lever
Like he's got cash to burn
Barely too proud to beg
I guess that boy will never learn
He's driving back home on Sunday
Praying he don't get killed
You know that Lucy's kinda crazy
When she ain't got her pills
What Mama don't know won't hurt her
That's what he'd always say
He's going down to Bossier City
Gonna drink his cares away
What Mama don't know won't hurt her
That's what he'd always say
He's going down to Bossier City
Gonna drink his cares away
She's got a script for pills
These here, man they're the good ones
Counting those ten dollar bills
What Mama don't know won't hurt her
That's what he'd always say
He's going down to Bossier City
Gonna drink his cares away
He's got a thousand dollars
That's more than the saw mill's paying
Lucy she's at her mamas
But he'll lose it all today
He's got a thousand dollars
That's just some gasoline
You know that boy, well he can gamble
Like you ain't never seen
What Mama don't know won't hurt her
That's what he'd always say
He's going down to Bossier City
Gonna drink his cares away
He's pulling down on that lever
Like he's got cash to burn
Barely too proud to beg
I guess that boy will never learn
He's driving back home on Sunday
Praying he don't get killed
You know that Lucy's kinda crazy
When she ain't got her pills
What Mama don't know won't hurt her
That's what he'd always say
He's going down to Bossier City
Gonna drink his cares away
What Mama don't know won't hurt her
That's what he'd always say
He's going down to Bossier City
Gonna drink his cares away
