J.W. Crowell was a hell of a man
He played two nights a week in a hillbilly band
He played at the Ice House on Telephone Road
And he played in the yard just to lighten his load

Say hey, J.W, come on play that frogline
Let Old Rodney sit in, hell, hes goin on nine
His fingers are bleedin, but hes keepin good time
Playin Black Diamond Strings, and hell never quit tryin

And I causette she told em both
She said, "You boys pack it up, its time to go home
We got church in the mornin, man, its comin up dawn
Dont make me say it again or Im gone
You can stay here forever, but youre gonna walk home"
