The Urich Cafe Lyrics

There's an old Missouri cafe

Spittin' distance from the highway

Our waitress had the sweetest southern drawl

But she said that there's a legend

You can send someone to heaven

By hanging their picture on the wall

I said ma'am have you told city hall

I don't think she has

I've been around the world and seen it all

But i wouldn't mind going round again

There's so much left to do before my last curtain call

So until my dying day

Don't hang me up at the Urich cafe

There's a teacher who's not teaching

And a preacher who ain't preaching

Cause they were framed by someone that they love

Mystery or superstition

But that wall ain't made for livin'

Cause now they're staring back at us from up above

I've been around the world and seen it all

But i wouldn't mind going round again

There's so much left to do before my last curtain call

So until my dying day

Don't hang me up at the Urich cafe

They say a picture's worth a thousand words

But in Urich, Missouri, they put you in the dirt

I've been around the world and seen it all

But i wouldn't mind going round again

There's so much left to do before my last curtain call

So until my dying day

When I'm lying in my grave

Don't hang me up at the Urich cafe
