Story Behind the Song
This song was written a long...long...long time ago..I guess when I thought I was a legend in my own mind!..It's just a song about the bar scene..people that you meet..and a fantasy in your head...and putting it to words and music.
Lyrics
I'm gonna tell ya'll a story bout a honky tonk lady.
By the name of Suicide Grady..who resides at the Raven Inn.
She said, "Boys won't you come on in...sit down let's get aquainted."
"Cause I feel like makin' love."
"Cause I feel like makin' love."
(Chourus)
If you gotta problem..no matter what it's been.
Get yourself to the back door of the Raven Inn.
Yell...for Suicide Grady!
She's crazy..but maybe..she can help you..work your problem out.
Well, you know what I'm talkin' bout.
Yeah, you know what I'm talkin' bout.
So, I took this handsome man's advice...cause it sounded kinda nice.
Besides, I had nothin' left to lose...so I headed for the back door of the Raven Inn.
(Chourus)
If you gotta problem..no matter what it's been.
Get yourself to the back door of the Raven Inn.
Yell...for Suicide Grady!
She's crazy..but maybe..she can help you..work your problem out.
Well, you know what I'm talkin' bout.
Yeah, you know what I'm talkin' bout.
She was sittin' at the bar...with a smile on her face.
Well, I took a look around...I felt so outta place.
My knees got weak...and I started to shake.
She climbed down off the stool and looked me in the face..and said.

If you gotta problem..no matter what it's been.
Get yourself to the back door of the Raven Inn.
Yell...for Suicide Grady!
She's crazy..but maybe..she can help you..work your problem out.
Well, you know what I'm talkin' bout.
Yeah, you know what I'm talkin' bout.
