Jack's Truck Stop and Cafe
Written and Performed by Dale Watson
From Album "I Hate These Songs"
Transcribed by Evan Murdock


(F)Drinking weren't allowed in the (C)barn where we danced
But (Bb)you could buy a coke at the store up (C)front
The (F)old man wore a path in that (C)dirt road parking lot
From the (Bb)back door of that (C)barn to their (F)trunk

(Bb)That's the way it (C)was on a Tennessee Saturday (Dm)night
(Bb)Just shooting the bull and dancing the night (C)away
(Bb)We sure had (C)fun on a (F)Tennessee Saturday (Dm)night
(Bb)Down at Jack's (C)truck stop and (F)cafe

It sure got hot in the sleepy southern town 
The night got as thick as the day
We'd open up them garage doors and we'd plug the shop fan in 
You could hear that band pickin' thirty blocks away

(Bb)That's the way it (C)was on a Tennessee Saturday (Dm)night
(Bb)Just shooting the bull and dancing the night (C)away
(Bb)We sure had (C)fun on a (F)Tennessee Saturday (Dm)night
(Bb)Down at Jack's (C)truck stop and (F)cafe
