In 197--
--G1, I hung up chicken bDone
On the old chandeAlier at the GSaDwdust Saloon
Medical Gexam cleared me to Dfight
My mother said sAtay and I Gthought that DI might
When my brother said Gstay that's when I Dwent
'Cause you Gnever Dknow who mightA go in your stead
So I showed up on Gtime to meet my plaDtoon
And Ghung up a Dbone in the SawdustA SaloonD

With Jimmy TasGsone, I used to play Dball
Now he sits here beAside me and tGalks like aD man
Looks like a Gman, he says he shoots like a Dman
But no medal of Ahonor could make his GMom move backD in
So he said, "My drunk Gfather, I'll be back for you Dsoon."
But GJimmy still Dhangs in theA SawdusDt Saloon D7
And I love my Gcountry with a deep frenzied Dlove
Her Glegs spread out Dwide and heAr nose turned up
So I showed up on Gtime to meet my plaDtoon
And Ghung up a Dbone in the SawdustA SaloonD

The candle in the Gwindow, the coin in the Dwell
The break in your Avoice, and the Gcrack in theD bell
All raise up a Ground, without saying a Dword
To them old dusty Abones and those Ggood men thatD served
Who showed up on Gtime to meet the Dplatoon
And Ghung up the Dbones at theA SawdusDt Saloon D
