Billy Jack Tovar hammered and he crowbarred
Off the made to look like a stone foundation
And that linoleum deck
He yanked out the roses hiding that gooseneck
Woke up the whole damn trailer-hood
Revving that girl and his wrecker up good
"You and him can go to hell"
Was the last thing we heard him yell
We've seen it before and we'll see it again
Putting "home sweet home" in a straight line when
Boarded up windows, taped down seams
Trail of dust taking up two lanes
That's how it goes whеn catching your girl
With your fourth-best friend in the wholе damn world collides with pride
And one payment left on a 99 single wide

Billy Jack Tovar only got so far
Broke down in the neighbor's yard
Up yonder, about a mile or so
Out came Lucinda in her best bathrobe
Beer and her smile's what reeled him in
Meanwhile his ex and Mechanic Jim
Got his truck cranked up and headed on back
We knew it was coming, just not that fast
We've seen it before and we'll see it again
Putting home sweet home in a straight line when
Boarded up windows, taped down seams
Trail of dust taking up two lanes
That's how it goes when catching your man
Gettin' through the night in your best friend's hands collides with pride
And one payment left on a 99 single wide

Billy Jack Tovar hammered and he crowbarred
Right back on the looks like stone foundation
And that linoleum deck
Gonna take another shot at forgive and forget
Well, that's how it goes, we've seen it before
When the thought of the cost of gettin' divorced collides with pride
And one payment left on a 99 single wide
Oh, 99 single wide, yeah
