-Verse1-
E B D A
Dexter was this little town my family used to live in.
E B D A
All my kin lived real close and everyone had an opinion.
E B D A
Grandma and Gramps lived up the street, right next to the walnut tree.
E B D A
Grandpa died of parkinsons in nineteen eighty-three.
-Verse2-
Riding on the go-cart at my next door neighbors house.
I couldn't tell the brake peddle from the cavities in his mouth.
Ran right over his dog and cat, as the wheels left the ground.
Didn't know that a tree could make such a resonating sound.
-Chorus-
G D A A
Trips in the ambulanceare like rides to the county fair.
G D A A
Needles,shots and settin' bones anyone can bare.
G D A A
Hospitals smell real good HBO is free.
G D A
Dexter town is simple people just like you and me.
-Verse3-
Thanksgiving was a Roosters house on a cold holiday.
I was voting turkey, but we had chicken anyway.
Never thought that I'd get sick, but the bird had its reasoning.
Nothing I'd say quite as good as ol' salmanella poisoning.
-Chorus-
-Verse4-
Jenkins were some stange folks that lived on down the street.
Mobile homes and pick-up trucks, they were all some kind of freaks.
Jimmy, he could fix cars, but he couldn't read a book.
High school taught him noth'n a 350 v8 wouldn't.
