Til the Roof Comes Off
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sally's got a juke joint over the hill
She bought it with her money daddy left her in a will
Bottle cap, parking lot, bouncer at the door
Five-piece band on an old wood floor
If the doors don't close
Man, don't stop
Sally ain't happy 'til the roof comes off
Sally ain't happy 'til the roof comes off
Friday night is lady's night but any night will do
Bikers, chuggers, hippies honey everybody's cool
Two-fifty pitchers, dollar long-neck brew
Bring your own bottle if that's what you wanna do
If the doors don't close
Band, don't stop
Sally ain't happy 'til the roof comes off
Sally ain't happy 'til the roof comes off
She don't care about the money, care about the cops
You better start rockin', you better not stop
Yeah you better start rockin', you better not stop
Kate behind the counter's taking nothing but cash
Mama says she trusts him even if it's trailer trash
in the bathroom, cigarette smoke
Cardboard on the window that a bar brawl broke
The band's always rippin' it over the top
Sally ain't happy 'til the roof comes off
Sally ain't happy 'til the roof comes off
