Oh, she burnt the little roadside tavern down
The only one for miles and miles around
I saw many hours of pleasure tumble down
When she burnt the little roadside tavern down.

It was my home away from home
Now those many nights of gettin' stoned're gone
This is what she had to say man you'd better stay away
Or I'll burn that little tavern down someday.

So she burnt the little roadside tavern down
The only one for miles and miles around
I saw many hours of pleasure tumble down
When she burnt the little roadside tavern down.

--- Instrumental ---

It was there I had my freedom all night long
But she've fuss and say that I had done her wrong
She said man you'll never learn just step back and watch it burn
And now that little roadside tavern's gone.

Oh, she burnt the little roadside tavern down
The only one for miles and miles around
I saw many hours of pleasure tumble down
When she burnt the little roadside tavern down.

I saw many hours of pleasure tumble down, down, down
When she burnt the little roadside tavern down...
This song is from the album "A Thing Called Love [RCA Victor]".
