(GUITAR INTRO)

E. E. Lawson at the general store

Highway K with the red front door

A pot belly stove and a hardwood floor



You call E. E. Lawson and what does he send?

He sends eggs, chicks, chicks and hens,

Cocks and hides and butter-fat skins



E. E. Lawson, he's a hell of a man

E. E. Lawson for a one-night stand

E. E. Lawson

He got him a plan



You go to E. E. Lawson on a Saturday night

The heat's out front but they're rockin' inside

You knock three times and you know it's all right



You go to E. E. Lawson and what do you find?

You find dogs, hogs, frogs, and wine

Home-made beer and a lot of free time



E. E. Lawson, he's a hell of a man

E. E. Lawson for a one-night stand

E. E. Lawson,

He got him a plan

(DOBRO SOLO)



E. E. Lawson on a Sunday morn

He's sittin' on the porch with a barrel of corn

He don't talk back but a day's been born



You call E. E. Lawson and what does he send?

He sends eggs, chicks, chicks, and hens

Cocks and hides and butter-fat skins



E. E. Lawson, he's a hell of a man

E. E. Lawson for a one-night stand

E. E. Lawson,

He got him a plan

He got him a plan
