"Cabo San Lucas"

"Cabo San Lucas"


Girl the last time you saw me I wasn't this cool
And i'm hangin' out in mexico down by the pool
In cabo, cabo san lucas
If I send you a ticket would you fly in?
I'd sure like to see you we could hook up again
In cabo, cabo san lucas

[Chorus]
I know it sounds crazy, but I bought a guitar
And i'm singing my songs downtown in a bar
You can come with a friend, you can come by yourself
You can sleep here with me, I ain't got nobody else
In cabo, cabo san lucas

Well the baja gets hot this time of year
And except for the fisherman, they all disappear
In cabo, cabo san lucas
Pacifico is great, tequila is too
I got it all goin, but I ain't got you
In cabo, cabo san lucas

[Repeat Chorus]

I'll show you the stars and the moon on the sea of cortez
And the beach at san juan as the sun's sinking down in the west
I'm leavin' you this message, and if you give a damn
And you wanna call me you know where I am in cabo, cabosan lucas
Way down in mexico
Way down in cabo

"Call A Marine"

"Call A Marine"



I was sittin’ in a bar, boozin’ and losin’
And some jackoff walks up cruisin’ for a bruisin’
Poppin’ off and makin’ my whole redneck red
He asked my girl if she’d like to dance
He had three buddies so I had no chance
I looked around the room for a friend and I saw Fred
A quick evaluation of the situation
And we entered into a conversation
It seemed to last the better part of the next two songs
Now I didn’t say and they didn’t ask
But Fred did two tours over in Iraq
And, son, it was over before it was even on.

Call a Marine
Instead of 911
They’re built to improvise, adapt and overcome
When you’re in knee deep and you’re up shit’s creek
And you’ve tried everything
Tell you what you do
Call a Marine!

Now my sister’s husband didn’t love her no more
And he runned off with a skinny little whore
And left her sittin’ around the house with a couple of kids
She just lays around in that muumuu gown
Old girl put on about 35 pounds
One day I went over to her house and I said, “Hey, sis”
If you wanna fix what troubles you
Just ease down to the VFW
And you’ll walk through the door and turns those boys’ heads
For most of those boys it’s been awhile
Just show a little leg and that Marlboro smile
And if that don’t work out for you, girl, ask for Fred.

Call a Marine
Instead of 911
They’re built to improvise, adapt and overcome
If you’re in knee deep and you’re up shit’s creek
You’ve tried everything
Tell you what you do
Call a Marine!

Some douche bag rises up and overthrows his government
Diplomacy ain’t workin’ and the ammos all been spent
The world is in a crisis and the media’s a curse
I’ll tell you what to do
When it goes from bad to worse

Call a Marine
Instead of 911
They’re built to improvise, adapt and overcome
When you’re in knee deep and you’re up shit’s creek
And you’ve tried everything
Tell you what you do
Call a Marine!

Tell you what to do, baby
You can call...
Call a Marine!
Yeah! Yeah!

"Can't Buy You Money"

"Can't Buy You Money"



I got a sweet little woman at home
She knows that I love her true
I got three little kids at home on the floor
They love there daddy too
I got one on the way and I don’t think I can pay the doctor bill
I never finished paying the last one off
Don’t guess I ever will

So we save it all up for a rainy day
But it’s always sunny
Guess all the happiness in the world
Can’t buy you money

I got an old work truck
It will barely get me to town and back
I try to put in a little over time
But that don’t put in no jack
So I bring it home
Were my baby got my hot supper cooked
Then I lay down and rest my weery bones
Get back up at six

Just workin’ hard in the land of milk and honey
Hey, all the happiness in the world
Can’t buy you money

But if I had plenty
I could keep us afloat
Then in the end if my ship don’t come in
I’d just buy a bigger boat
I ain’t got no money
I’m knee deep in dept
We must be livin’ on love from above
Because we ain’t hit bottom yet

I pick my paycheck up and go strait to the bank
That’s my usual route
Then I go home and pick up the wife and the kids
Because we’re goin’ out
It’s a drive threw window
Pick out a combo super size
Swing on down to the wallmart
Let the kids pick out a prize
My truck broke down at the red light
She thinks it’s real funny
Yes, all the happiness in the world can’t buy you money

So we save it all up for a rainy day
But it’s always sunny
Guess all the happiness in the world
Can’t buy you money

"Chill-axin'"

"Chill-axin'"



High tide’s up
And the water’s coming in on the shore
Usually wait until vacation
But I sure can’t take this city anymore

Work’s been hell
And that rush hour traffic’s never been a breeze
Ain’t no hustle where I’m goin’
Just a warm trade wind a blowin’ through the trees

I don’t need no sympathy
That won’t bring satisfaction
Just need to charge my battery
Had a bad reaction
Gonna do my best to decompress…
Chill-axin’

I could fire up my ol’ motorcycle
And head up to the country where it’s green
Maybe head up to Montana
But there’s something about the ocean that’s serene

Fifteen hundred miles
Still got seven hundred left to do
But it don’t seem like forever
When you know that you’re outrunnin’ the blues

I don’t need no sympathy
That won’t bring satisfaction
Just need to charge my battery
Had a bad reaction
Gonna do my best to decompress…
Chill-axin’

There’s a worm in the bottle and Wild Shot on the table
With some salt and lime and some mezcal maybe I’ll be able
To find my paradise, put this broken world on ice…
Chill-axin’

High tide’s up
And the water’s coming in on the shore
I usually wait until vacation
But I just can’t take this city anymore

"Christmas Rock"

"Christmas Rock"



My billfold doesn't have a prayer
There's Christmas catalogs everywhere
She keeps looking at the jewelry section
Cutting pictures out of her selections

I said we need to hold it down this year
And in her eye she got a big ol' tear
She wants a Christmas rock
But Santa's pockets ain't got no roll

She don't want pots and pans
Just something shinin' on her hand
With an emerald or a diamond on it
I had a budget but she's gone and blown it
Down to the jewelry store, here I go
Hear the clerk say, ho, ho, ho
She wants a Christmas rock
But Santa's pockets ain't got no roll

She don't want anything from sears
No tools or garden shears
There's something special on her mind
And I can't even afford the shine

I wish she'd settled for a long nightshirt
No, I've got to give till it hurts
She wants a Christmas rock
But Santa's pockets ain't got no roll

She don't want pots and pans
Just something shinin' on her hand
With an emerald or a diamond on it
I had a budget but she's gone and blown it
Down to the jewelry store, here I go
Hear the clerk say, ho, ho, ho
She wants a Christmas rock
But Santa's pockets ain't got no roll

She wants a Christmas rock
But ol' Santa's pockets ain't got no roll

"Christmas To Christmas"

"Christmas To Christmas"



Seems like only yesterday
We put our Christmas things away
Now here's another Christmas day with you
When you're in love, how time does fly
And this year that's just flown by
Had been one happy holiday for two

Christmas to Christmas
Wrapped in your arms
Love's always in season
And always so warm
Till my days on earth are through
I will spend Christmas to Christmas lovin' you

Yes, the givin' season's here again
Time to love your fellow man
Yuletide smiles are in demand, it's true
The love we share is for all time
We'll feel its glow right through July
To melt the cold when winter flies anew

Christmas to Christmas
Wrapped in your arms
Love's always in season
And always so warm
Till my days on earth are through
I will spend Christmas to Christmas lovin' you

Till my days on earth are through
I will spend Christmas to Christmas lovin' you

"Chuckie's Gone"

"Chuckie's Gone"



Twister came through our home town
and tore alot of peoples houses down
Always happens in the spring
but this time missed everything.
Put the band back on the road
still got alot of wild seeds to sow
LB prayed and Michael cried
it was the first time without you
by my side.

Stage goes up, stage goes down
Busses roll through another town
Words to write and gigs to play
and you'll always be a song away
Your bass is there where you used to stand
and even though we got a killer band
Still look up in the middle of a song
and realize Chuckie's gone.
Chuckie's gone

Never got to say goodbye
and thank you for the times I cried and laughed.
You were quicker than the rest
Fastest gun slinger in the West
I hope you find peace from your pain
must of been like a hurricane.
So fly away with all our love
sure wish you didn't need that stuff.

Stage goes up Stage goes down
Busses roll through another town
Words to write and gigs to play
and you'll always be a song away.
Your bass is there where you used to stand
and even though we got a killer band
Still look up in the middle of a song
and realize Chuckie's gone.
Chuckie's gone

"Chug-A-Lug"



Chug-a-lug chug a lug
Make ya wanna holla hidy hoe,
Burns your tummy don't you know
Chug-a-lug chug-a-lug

Grape wine in a mason jar
Homemade and brought to school
By a friend of mine after class
Me and him and this other fool
Decided that we'll drink up whats left
chug-a-lug so I helped myself
first time for everything
umm my ears still ring

Chug-a-lug Chug-a-lug
Make u wanna holla hidy hoe,
Burns your tummy don't you know
Chug-a-lug chug-a-lug

4 H and an FFA
On a field trip to the farm
Me and friend sneek off behind
This big old barn
Where we uncovered a covered up
Moonshine still
And we thought we'd drink our fill
And I swallowed it with a smile
ohh I run ten mile

Chug-a-lug chug a lug
Make u wanna holla hidy hoe,
Burns your tummy don't you know
Chug-a-lug chug-a-lug

Jukebox and sawdust floor
Somthin' like i've never seen
Heck I'm just going on 15,
But with the help of my fanaglein' uncle
I get snuk in for my first taste of sin
I said let me have a big old sip
bbbb i done a double back flip

Chug-a-lug chug a lug
Make u wanna holla hidy hoe,
Burns your tummy don't you know
Chug-a-lug chug-a-lug chig a chagle uh

"Clancy's Tavern"

"Clancy's Tavern"



Any minute the five o'clock crowd will be coming
Taps will be flowing with beer
The cigarette smoke soon to be rising
And at 5:30 Clancy gets here

She knows all their faces
She's practically raised them
And that's why they're loyal and true
They'll pay their tabs
And that pays the light bill
And she keeps a glass full of brew

And the welders and the drivers
And the old nine to fivers
And the regular Joe's of the world
Are singing, here's to you, Clancy
And your neighborhood tavern
Pour me another, my girl

There's a waitress named Lilly
Shows up at 7
To make sure the service is great
And there's a black dude named Elmo
That cooks in the kitchen
Burgers and chicken fried stake

Here round 9 o'clock the band will start playing
And the music will fill up the air
And they'll take a break every 45 minutes
And the jukebox takes over from there

And the welders and the drivers
And the old nine to fivers
And the regular Joe's of the world
Are singing, here's to you, Clancy
And your neighborhood tavern
Pour me another, my girl

It's 1:35 last call's upon us
It's time to settle a score
Won't you call me a cab and bring me a tab
And while you're at it bring me one more

She's cleaned the last table
And shined up the bar
It's late and everyone's gone
Then she'll cock her pistol
And count all her money
And drive that old Chrysler back home

And the welders and the drivers
And the old nine to fivers
And the regular Joe's of the world
Singing, here's to you, Clancy
And your neighborhood tavern
Pour me another, my girl

Have a good night sleep, Clancy
In your neighborhood tavern
We'll see you tomorrow, my girl

"Close But No Guitar"

"Close But No Guitar"



I'd sing the harmonies and Dixie sang the melody
And we sing a little off key sometimes
But we had some fun, son of a gun
I wonder if I ever even cross her mind

Then she ran away with Billy Bovine
He was a flat top guitar pickin' friend o' mine
And now I'm just sittin' home just countin' the stars
I got close but no guitar

I got close but no guitar
She was a shooting star
Who ran off with a guitar pickin' friend o' mine
She's really on her way
I hear her records every day
I got close but no guitar

I still play piano bars, still drive that same ol' car
I live in that little shack in Tupelo
Dixie is the queen of Billboard Magazine
Playin' 'cross the country doin' one night shows

A man walks up with a dollar in his hand
Says let me hear the song by Dixie and the guitar man
And as the dollar falls to the bottom of my jar
I get close but no guitar

I got close but no guitar
She was a shooting star
Who ran off with a guitar pickin' friend o' mine
She's really on her way
I hear her records every day
I got close but no guitar

I got close but no guitar
She was a shooting star
Who ran off with a guitar pickin' friend o' mine
She's really on her way
I hear her records every day
I got close but no guitar
