"Dry County" is a song by American rock band Bon Jovi.
Clocking in at 9 minutes and 52 seconds, "Dry County" is the longest song that Bon Jovi has ever recorded on a studio album.
"Dry County" is about the decline of the U.S. domestic oil industry and its effect on those whose income relied on it.
In live versions of the song, during the buildup to the second guitar solo, Jon Bon Jovi often includes a monologue about the struggles of life generally.
Although "Dry County" is considered a fan favorite, it was only played regularly on the Keep the Faith Tour.
