Hydrant-yellow cab: well, whyzit here?
One street - small town - booze incorporated,
woulda got the Greyhound if it just waited.
They gotta bank and a fire station,
a burned down school and a Baptist mission
Never seen a place so itty-bitty -
no gas station to get a cool beer!
I’m beached on a sidewalk, how’d I get here?
