lyrics

Route 81

  If there's any place else I'd rather be
 It's down 81, near Tennessee 
Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountain range 
There's a gathering of friends coming out to play  

The sun is shining 
The wine is flowing 
The girls are all dancing with their tube-tops on
 The grill is sizzling 
Jerry's still singing 
And Jim ain't turning in before the dawn  

Don't look now--who's that rolling through?
 It's Ryan with a case of his homemade brew 
Jim's smoking more than just BBQ
 If I can't rhyme this line then maybe I am also  

The sun is shining 
The wine is flowing
 The girls are all dancing with their tube-tops on
 The grill is sizzling
 Jerry's still picking 
And no one's turning in before the dawn
