Black Jack Fletcher And Mississippi Sam-Montgomery Gentry[00:00:00]
Every Friday evening about sundown[00:00:28]
Ole' Black Jack Fletcher and Mississippi Sam[00:00:30]
Come ridin' their mules and leading their hounds[00:00:33]
Down to my place[00:00:35]
They holler "Hey son" have you got a drank[00:00:38]
Gonna make it hard on you if you ain't[00:00:41]
I'd grin and point to a jug coolin' in the spring[00:00:43]
They turn the hounds loose and let'em run[00:00:51]
Drink a little whiskey and have a lot of fun[00:00:54]
Talk about the days when they were younger than nowadays[00:00:56]
Talk about women young and old[00:01:02]
It was hard to believe all the stories told[00:01:04]
Wonder how they to be as old as they are now[00:01:07]
Well Black Jack Fletcher and Mississippi Sam[00:01:14]
Fought together in Vietnam[00:01:17]
Mean as hell but they say "Yes mam" to your momma[00:01:20]
They gambled away all the money they made[00:01:25]
Knowing they was never gonna change their ways[00:01:28]
Living out every single day like another wasn't comin'[00:01:30]
Well Ole' Black Jack Fletcher was an ornery man[00:01:46]
Mississippi Sam didn't give a damn[00:01:48]
They'd steal a lady from a man while he was lookin'[00:01:51]
Well there ain't no doubt they was both outlaws[00:01:56]
Turnin' yellow corn into alcohol[00:01:59]
But they never hurt no one who didn't need a hurtin'[00:02:01]
Black Jack Fletcher and Mississippi Sam[00:02:09]
Always getting in and out of a jam[00:02:12]
Makin' up their own law of the land while a runnin'[00:02:15]
They knew life was just a luck of the draw[00:02:20]
So they played a game with the local law[00:02:22]
Laughin' and sayin' a catchin' comes before a hangin'[00:02:25]
Now I wouldn't take nothin' for those days[00:02:48]
Every now and then I visit their graves[00:02:51]
And as the moon hangs in the haze[00:02:53]
I have a drink to Fletcher and Sam[00:02:59]
