G Em It seems like overnight, the town of Red River C G Was suddenly full of strange men C Who wore suits in the summer G D And stood on the dirt roads, trying to hold their maps in the wind G Em And some of them smiled, and some of them didnât C D And none of them came back again G Em After 5 generations of Rock County Wilsonâs C D G The last 50 acres, apparently they didnât, mean a damn thing to them G Em C G I stood on the hill, overlooking Red River, where my momma and her momma lay C G D And listened to the growling of the big diesel cat, as they tore up the woodâs where I played G Em C D And I said Momma forgive me, but Iâm almost glad, that youâre not here today G Em After 5 generations of Rock County Wilsonâs C D G see the last 50 acres in the hands of somebody that would actually blow it away G Em You know the Bus station, in the town of Red River C G Used to be the general store. C G D But now they got a new one. And you know thatâs ok, if a bus is what youâre looking for G Em C D So early one morning, When the sun becomes red, I got up with the dawn G Em After 5 generations of Rock County Wilsonâs C D G The last one just climbed on a big gray dog···.And was gone····
