Choctaw County Affair

Oh
Well life's been kinda trippy down here in Mississippi since Cassie O'Grady disappeared
And me and Bobby Shaffer been in all the newspapers everyday for nigh on a year
They say we got tangled in a love triangle, a fatal game of truth or dare
But the truth remains a mystery and now it's ancient history
It's a Choctaw County affair
It's just a Choctaw County affair
Well people talkin' 'bout it everywhere
Well Cassie O'Grady was no southern lady despite all the media hype
They all love to make her out like a sweet little devout all-American cheerleader type
But her mind was catawampus, she was greedy, she was pompous struttin' 'round with her nose in the air
She was a cold gold digger tickling a hair trigger
It's a Choctaw County affair
It's just a Choctaw County affair
And now they say she's lying dead somewhere
Well I do not deny I wish Cassie would die when she threatened us with blackmail
She said she had some information that would wreck my reputation and land Bobby back in jail
Now it's best to remember Bobby Shaffer's got a temper like a buckshot grizzly bear
But there's no body, there's no witness, so y'all go mind your business
It's a Choctaw County affair
It's just a Choctaw County affair
Oh, you mess with Bobby and you'd better beware
Well the press went wild on the day of the trial when they put us on the witness stand
They thought we'd turn on each other but soon they all discovered we would live or die hand in hand
And that fancy D.A. from down Jackson Way said he'd see us in the electric chair
But the foreman of the jury told me, "Honey, don't you worry
It's a Choctaw County affair"
Hey, it's just a Choctaw County affair
How would you know cos you weren't there
Yeah, it's just a Choctaw County affair
