He's a picker, he's a driller of oil wells
he's an old school man of the world
Taught me how to drive his car when he's too drunk to
then he'd wink and give me money for the girls
-
One day I look up an he's pushing eighty
got brown tobbaco stains all down his chin
to me he's one of the heros of this country
so why's he all dressed up like them old men?

Song always makes me think of my grandfather

From 'Winter' - by The Fall

Man on the first floor said
"I just looked round
I just looked round
I just looked round
"And my youth it was sold"

Two white doves cross the sky
There fly krakens
And sometimes, that little.....
Makes me tremble
Courtesy winter

The mad kid had 4 lights, the average is 2.5 lights
The mediocre has 2 lights, the sign of genius is three lights
There's one light left, that's the one light
That's the science law

Yeah, I got one question man, tell me who next,
this ***** is salt button ***** who did gimme the best.

See I'm the best man, I did it...

Yeaw, uh, yeah, yeah, yeh,

see I'mma letchoo know who the best, by duh hour,
just like Rosie O'Donnell at a bisexual bridal shower.

It ain't nuttin' to me man, I keep it fo real,
look at these blill meh, with thin on the grills.

See, I'm tha best, I told you that,
this dude like that, he ran in front of the cat.

No, I messed up but I'munna stay on top,
they told me man but you know, I'm never gonna flop.

Look at this dude he need to stay in the shade,
ain't no wonder why he came out, he already in the gay parade!

I told you man, I got you, roasted like ever,
you don't know, but my rhymes, they straight up clever.

So you step down, off the pedestal,
I'm the best man, you need to go, to the ****ing detoe.

you change your mind like a girl changes clothes
and you PMS like a bitch i would know



oh baby baby how was i supposed to know
that something wasn't right here

Then it all crashes down
And you break your crown
And you point your finger, but there's no one around

Metallica - King Nothing

tell all your girlfriends your " been around the world " friends that talk is for losers and fools

Eagles - Victim of Love

Amen to this. McMurtry is a genius. That song captures the area perfectly; that's where I'm from. Driven under that McD's many times, been to Baxter Springs, etc. His songs are like perfect stories, and he says everything with so few words. Amazing.

"The sudden motion made me skip now we're into a brand new trip"

Full Blown Chaos-Fail Like A Champ.

Fool me once shame on you, Fool me twice and I'll rip your heart out.

I shot a man in Reno
Just to watch him die
