Keep this Place Off the Map 2011 Cameron Earnshaw/Robert George
well, this tiny Texas valley, is unknown by Rand McNally
cos it's just some cabins nestled in the dunes
highway signs are sprayed with buckshot, and the only local truckstop
is ole Sarge's one booth, two stool greasy spoon
and his army recipes for bread and buns
keeps those that ain't accustomed on the run
where ev'rybody speaks in country grammar
cowgirls have a blue jean glamour
the old men dippin' Copenhagen
sure miss Ronald Reagan
and the sheriff's takes his nap
sittin out at the speed trap
some folks won't understand us, cos we sure do our damndest
workin' hard to keep this place off the map
"got no Google shares or tech stocks
got no satellite or X-Box
so I take my girlfriend out where nature sings
drinkin' homemade wine and RockStar
in an old abandoned box star
moonlight skinny dipping in the desert springs"
shady bankers came to put a highway through
but Granny Thompson scared em off with her .22
where ev'rybody speaks in country grammar
cowgirls have a blue jean glamour
the old men dippin' Copenhagen
sure miss Ronald Reagan
and the sheriff's takes his nap
sittin out at the speed trap
some folks won't understand us, cos we sure do our damndest
workin' hard to keep this place off the map
now theres twenty five boys in our high school
and they got a football team this year
those boysre great, and theyll make it straight to state
then the worldll know were here
where ev'rybody speaks in country grammar
cowgirls have a blue jean glamour
the old men dippin' Copenhagen
sure miss Ronald Reagan
and the sheriff's takes his nap
sittin out at the speed trap
some folks won't understand us, cos we sure do our damndest
workin' hard to keep this place off the map
