Stay Local

Sitting in the local bar Eating local fare Country music playing on the jukebox Feet start tapping People talking. The barmaid hopping getting liquor pouring. Family Not kin but family just the same. Similar hardships faced Different stories to share. Locals all here for the same reason. Good friends Great food Supporting a local place Known as Bahama Mama's. Some come on down on a Saturday night, For great singers from the valley. Singing from the heart Doing their part To keep a local business here. Where it belongs Where it needs to thrive Where keeps the local fun alive.
