lyrics

Beneath the stage door light
Smokin’ Camel’s and drinking Rocks
Hittin’ every bullseye four shows a night

Burnin’ the blues up and down this road
Wearin’ Billy Preston’s coat
With your name on the back of your belt for the world to see

You old rock ‘n’ roller, you sang George Jones
Jelly-Jelly...dust and bones
Blowing Golden Melody’s, never asking what key

No, you just burned the whole place down
You burned the whole place down
Go on burn the whole place down

With an okie drawl and a bass guitar
She sang like an angel in them run down bars
She always asked about you when she called

Up all night like we used to do
Till that old night took the best from you
Left a candle in my window shining blue

Lord, it’s gonna burn the whole place down
Burnin’ the whole place down
Go on burn the the whole place down
