Sweet Tea and a Shot of Jack

Verse 1

Sweet tea and a shot of Jack

Tip the barkeep and tip his hat

Blue eyes sweep the room like a storm rolling in

That walk he's got says don't you start

Ain't no man here stepping up

He don't need a reason and he don't need a friend

Pre-Chorus

Keep your girl close when the door swings wide

Something in the air when he steps inside

Chorus

They call him the Lonewolf down at the county line

Don't test that fire don't cross that line

One look and you know he ain't messin around

If he sets his sights she's leaving with him out of this town

Verse 2

Round here folks all know the name

Some whisper low some call it shame

But nobody's brave enough to say it to his face

He orders slow he drinks it down

Fiddle crying low in the background

And the whole damn room gets quiet in that space

Pre-Chorus

Keep your girl close when the moon gets high

Something in that stare and that steady stride

Chorus

They call him the Lonewolf down at the county line

Don't test that fire don't cross that line

One look and you know he ain't messin around

If he sets his sights she's leaving with him out of this town

Bridge

Louisiana nights and a banjo moan

Every heart in here is covered in stones

But he walks alone and he walks it proud

Ain't a soul alive that's gonna slow him down

Chorus

They call him the Lonewolf down at the county line

Don't test that fire don't cross that line

One look and you know he ain't messin around

If he sets his sights she's leaving with him out of this town
