Possum Ran over My Grave

I remember the night he didn’t show
So we shoved his old eight-track in our truck radio
With a six-pack of beer he cranked up
It was like a possum ran over my grave
Couple years later, he came back through towm
That’s the night No-Show mowed us all down
And during his encore we stood there amazed
It was like a possum ran over our grave
Now when it comes to music, there ain’t but a few
That can raise the hair on you
Like the Star Spangled Banner and Amazing Grace
Are the words to an old country tune
It’s the feelin' you get when a George Jones song plays
It’s like a possum ran over your grave
From the east Texas pines, all over the world
It’s the saddest voice you’ll ever hear
Like a pain in your heart or a tear in your eye
Are the words goin' through your ears
Like the first time you hear «He Stopper Loving Her Today»
It’s like a possum ran over your grave
Like a possum ran over your grave
Like a possum ran over your grave
