Lyrics

Elizaville
Peter Spencer Church 2006

I was out for a ride on a hot Summer night,
I made a left hand turn when I should have made a right,
Then I made my way down past the Jabetown Mill,
Then I went a little further, over the hill,
To Elizaville,To Elizaville,

I was lost, so I asked for directions, at a local bar,
It was never my intention, to go so far,
Then caught my eye was a girl, she promised me a thrill,
She smiled and asked my name, I said my name was Bill,
From Elizaville, from Elizaville, Elizaville,

That night we stayed together till the rising of the sun,
And I was ready to leave, I?d had my fun,
Then I noticed someone looking over the window sill,
He had his eyes on me with a look that could kill,
In Elizaville, in Elizaville, Elizaville,

I got my stuff together, and I had a little bite,
I was on my way to my car when I got into a fight,
Seems I was messin around with his old lady Jill,
Came within an inch of my life,
Thought I?d have to write my will, from Elizaville, Elizaville,

Made my way through Flemingsburg to the Mason Co. line,
By the time that I got home I was ready for a bottle of wine,
And I learned a lesson on life that holds true still,
Don?t try to take the medicine,
Unless you can swallow the pill, Oh Elizavile, Elizaville,
