She Burnt The Little Roadside Tavern Down

Oh she burnt the little roadside tavern down
The only one for miles and miles around
I saw many hours of pleasure tumble down
When she burnt the little roadside tavern down

It was my home away from home
Those many nights of gettin' stoned are gone
This is what she had to say man you'd better stay away
Or I'll burn that little tavern down someday

Oh she burnt the little roadside tavern down...

It was there I had my freedom all night long
But she'd fuss and say I'd done her wrong
She said man you'll never learn just step back and watch it burn
And now that little roadside tavern's gone

So she burnt the little roadside tavern down...
