Tom T. Hall
The Old Side of Town

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
RSVP is not for me and black ties are not my style
I thought you'd like to know 'cause you ain't been here for a while
We read about your tour de force, we're glad you get around
But we miss you on the old side of town

[Chorus]
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
