about

The night we were stuck trying to help a guy who didn't want our help in a Walmart parking lot in Viroqua, WI

lyrics

“Viroqua, WI”
Written by Mallory Graham and Scott Tyler
Copyright Penny Jar Publishing 2016

Two and forty miles from Madison.
I left all the light on my Cadillac.
Now I’m four and twenty hours from a residence
I call home.

How’m’I gonna get to you, my love?
I got sixteen bucks and an old Coke cup.
Now I’m gonna rely on a stranger’s luck,
Or give up.

Six miles outta town,
Seven to go back home.
Six miles or seven,
It’s all the same road.

Chickadee day and swallow’s night,
Whether feather or bird it’s all just flight.
I could hobble along or catch a ride
To get me home.

I could make a nest of this parking lot,
But they’re hosing down everything I’ve got.
And I gotta get out of this Walmart
Before it’s home.

Six miles outta town,
Seven to go back home.
Six miles or seven,
It’s all the same road.

All my love is luck is love
All my love is luck is love

Whatcha gonna do with me, my love?
I got a horse shoe’s hand and an Ace’s bust.
There’s no pretty little nail that I can trust
Like my luck.

Six miles outta town,
Seven to go back home.
Six miles or seven,
It’s all the same road.
