Eric Church - Pledge Allegiance To The Hag lyrics

[Verse 1: Eric Church] There's a little dive on a dead-end road Called the Cross-Eyed Cricket Watering' Hole Where you can hear the sound of a steel guitar An' get loud an' rowdy with PBR But at the top of every hour, man, you can hear a pin drop As ol' Jack drops a quarter an' plays Merle on that jukebox, an' we stop [Chorus: Eric Church] An' tip our hats An' raise our gla**es of cold, cold beer They say country's fading' But we still waving' that flag around here An' when it's time to go, you know you're welcome back Where the people pledge allegiance to the Hag [Verse 2: Eric Church] When the weekend comes an' the weather's clear There's a high spot fifteen miles from here Where you can always find a few dusty trucks With the windows down an' the radio up We sit there popping' tops, shooting' bull an' singing' songs But you can bet your boots that when Haggard comes on [Chorus: Eric Church] [Verse 3: Merle Haggard] One of these days when my time has come You can take me back to where I'm from Put me on a westbound train An' ship me off in the pouring' rain [Pre-Chorus: Eric Church] Don't cry for me when I'm gone Just put a quarter in the jukebox an' sing me back home [Chorus: Eric Church] [Verse 4: Eric Church] An' tip our hats An' raise our gla**es of cold, cold beer They say country's fading' But just keep waving' that flag around here An' I know, it'll keep on coming' back Long as people pledge allegiance Where folks still pledge allegiance I pledge allegiance to the Hag
