Recession Special
The crowd’s jumpin’ on Broadway tonight,
Steel guitar’s cryin’, feelin’ just right,
A two-step shuffle and a whiskey grin,
Where the boots get broken and the tales begin.
Ain’t got much, but I got my pride,
A ten-dollar bill and a hell of a ride—
If you’re low on cash but high on dreams,
There’s a spot where the music swings…
It’s the Recession Special, keep your worries light,
A bologna sandwich and a beer tonight,
A cowboy’s meal for a poor man’s price,
At Robert’s Western World, we do country right!
The band’s burnin’ like Bob Wills would,
Boots tap the floor ‘cause the music’s that good,
Honky-tonk angels with a wink and a smile,
Sayin’, “Boy, stick around and dance for a while.”
Ain’t got much, but I got my pride,
A ten-dollar bill and a hell of a ride—
When the money runs low but the good times roll,
You know where to go…
It’s the Recession Special, keep your worries light,
A bologna sandwich and a beer tonight,
A cowboy’s meal for a poor man’s price,
At Robert’s Western World, we do country right!
Pick that guitar, let it swing and sway,
Bass is thumpin’, leading the way,
Ain’t got gold, but I got my song,
And a honky-tonk heart where I belong.
It’s the Recession Special, keep your worries light,
A bologna sandwich and a beer tonight,
A cowboy’s meal for a poor man’s price,
At Robert’s Western World, we do country right!
So raise your glass, don’t break the bank,
Just tip the band and tell ‘em thanks,
For a swingin’ time and a cheap delight,
At Robert’s Western World, we do country right!
