Time pours slow like molasses in the country
Dusty roads where fireflies get spunky
As the thick golden sunlight blasts the day
Sure'nuff, folks are grateful for every ray
You best be up in the church on Sundays
Preacher man will baptize sinners on Mondays
Kids are playing safe and free in the woods
Momma's in the kitchen, makin' baked goods
The elders, on the porch swing, singing praises
To Jesus, while the Summer heat blazes
A water moccasin shimmies down the creek
The talk of the town, for the rest of the week
