Me and my friend Lillian
And her tick hound dog Gideon,
Sittin on the front porch in the shade
every song the radio played
Waitin for the Alabama sun to go
Two red dirt in a red dirt town

He was fixin up a '49
He told her 'Little sister, gonna ride the
Up around the and back again"
He got farther than Vietnam,
I was there with her when the telegram come
For Lillian.

My hammer

Buried old dog Gideon
By a crepe bush in the back of the yard,
Her daddy turned and her mama leaned hard

Coulda the pills,
Coulda the dream she was trying to kill.

About the life and the death of a red dirt
Lillian
Who never got any farther the line than Meridian.

Now the stars still fall on
Tonight she laid
That down

In the red ground
