It seems like overnight, the town of Red River
      C                       G
Was suddenly full of strange men
          C
Who wore suits in the summer
      G                   D
And stood on the dirt roads,  trying to hold their maps in the wind
      G                   Em
And some of them smiled, and some of them didn?
     C                      D
And none of them came back again

The last 50 acres, apparently they didn? mean a damn thing to them

I stood on the hill, overlooking Red River, where my momma and her momma
lay
          C
G                     D
And listened to the growling of the big diesel cat, as they tore up the
wood?where I played
                       G
Em                   C              D
And I said Momma forgive me, but I?almost glad, that you? not here
today

see the last 50 acres in the hands of somebody that would actually blow
it away
      G                            Em
You know the Bus station, in the town of Red River
 C                      G
Used to be the general store.
       C
G                  D
But now they got a new one. And you know that?ok, if a bus is what
you? looking for

So early one morning, When the sun becomes red, I got up with the dawn
