Well life's been kinda trippy down here in Mississippi
Since Cassy O'Grady disappeared
And me and Bobby Shaver been in all the newspapers
Every day for nigh on a year
They say we got tangled in a love triangle
A fatal game of truth or dareBut 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 everywhereWell Cassie O'Grady was no southern lady
Despite all the media hype
They all love to make her out like the sweet little devout
All-American cheerleader type
But her mind was catawampus, she was greedy, she was pompousStruttin' 'round with her nose in the air
She was a cold golder digger ticklin' a hair trigger
It's a Choctaw County Affair, it's just a Choctaw County Affair
And now they say she's lying' dead somewhereWell I do not deny I wished Cassie would die
When she's threatened us with blackmail
She said she had some information that would wreck my reputation
And land Bobby back in jailNow it's best to remember Bobby Shaver'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 better bewareWell 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 DA 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, yeahYeah, it's just a Choctaw County Affair, yeah
How would you know 'cause you weren't thereYeah, it's just a Choctaw Country affair, yeah
