Derelict Saloon



A local watering hole along Hwy 116 now gone dry. "Red's Recovery Room" is only a boozy memory of a bygone time.



The barstool Queen never drank alone. 
The cowboys danced with her to the jukebox.



Cowboy beer a nickel a glass
The barstool queen sipped gin fizz
Money's no worry just put it on my tab

The cowboys are gone and the trails run dry.
Ghosts and memories of another time.
