It Hurts Me
9/25/07
I try not to think about the new guy and you
Or all of the trouble that I put you through
I may not know where you are but I know where you’ve been
And it hurts me yes it hurts me when you’re lovin’ him
It hurts me yes it hurts me when you’re lovin’ him
And how I wish I could see you again
With your hair so long
Tell you exactly how I feel
I’ve come a long long way to sing you this song
As I tried to figure out why you would not stay
Someone older tempted you and took you away
I wish that I was dreamin’ but what can I do
It hurts me yes it hurts me when he’s loving you
It hurts me yes it hurts me when he’s loving you
And how I wish I could see you again
With your hair so long
Tell you exactly how I feel
I’ve come a long long way to sing you this song
And how I wish I could see you again
With your hair so long
Tell you exactly how I feel
I’ve come a long long way to sing you this song
To sing you this song
To sing you this song
To sing you this song

Cocaine Queen
Sept 2006
It’s 5 AM and here I am humpin’ on Katie Jeanne
And I’ve come here to testify she can get it on real mean
And even though she’s on the blow I’m thinkin’ that I’m in love
And even though she’s doin’ Joe I call her my turtle dove
Cocaine queen, Cocaine Queen
She might be easy and a little mean
Cocaine Queen, Cocaine Queen
She looks like a stripper if you know what I mean
Now I’ve heard it round from all my friends tellin’ me what to do
That I should dump that coke head slut so she can do them too
The other night she came out with all of her stripper friends
And left her two kids all alone so she could be getting’ ins’
(Chorus)
What I didn’t say is I hate drugs so that makes me a hypocrite
And I keep thinkin’ sex is love so I can keep getting it
The moral of the story goes please listen to what I say
If you find yourself a coke head slut just turn around and walk away
(Chorus x2)

Cars
(Intro)
Cars are something useful and cars are something nice
But there aint nothing better than riding on my bike
And if you’ve got yourself a nice one well that’s ok with me
But I’d rather you not drive it just so that I can breathe
(Chorus) And a car don’t mean a thing if you’re walkin
If it’s hot and you are walkin better get out of the sun
Better get down to that river and have yourself some fun
Better quit all your complaining and let me tell you why
If it doesn’t ever kill you it won’t ever make you die
(Chorus)
If you’re a pretty lady and you want those buns of steel
Better get yourself out walkin and tell me how you feel
Cause cars are temporary but feet are here to stay
And if cars were run by horses then we’re better off that way
(Chorus)
(Chorus reprise) Car don’t mean a thing
If you got good shoes
Car don’t mean a thing
If you got the blues
Car don’t mean a thing
If you don’t have hair
Car don’t mean a thing
If you just don’t care
A car don’t mean a thing if you’re walkin

A Song for Amy
April 2007
Even though it’s been rough I think it’s enough
To say that life’s been good to me
Some others might see it a little bit different
But that’s ok with me
It’s been a long time since I gave a damn
About what a woman might think of me
So it might be you’re exactly what I needed
Showin’ me what I could not see
(Chorus) I know that I just met you
But I still have this to say
You’re a very special woman
Help me see the light that’s comin’ my way
A very special woman
Help me see the light that’s comin’ my way
Second verse harder than the first
Cause there’s not as much cool to say
But since I met you I’ve been thinkin’
Bout that time and every day
I get down on my knees and say a little somethin’
For the people needing help today
And I do believe things are getting’ better
And you really brighten up my day
(Chorus) I know that I just met you
But I still have this to say
You’re a very special woman
Help me see the light that’s comin’ my way
A very special woman
Help me see the light that’s comin’ my way
A very special woman
Help me see the light that’s comin’ my way

Kicked In the Britches
April 2007
Lord why do you let them hurt me?
I’m so confused it’s hard to see
I love the ladies and their bodies
But man their minds are sure not lovin’ me
I love the ladies and their bodies
All kinds are good I do agree
But I want one that wants to hold me
And one who likes getting sweet kisses from me
Ooooo Ooooo
I’ve been kicked in the britches again
Ooooo Ooooo
I’ve been kicked in the britches again
I sit and think about a new love
Sometimes it really gets to me
I love the ladies and their bodies
But talkin’ to them is just too hard for me
I love the ladies and their bodies
But wear my heart upon my sleeve
So they think that it is for certain
That there may be too much freak in me
Ooooo Ooooo
I’ve been kicked in the britches again
Ooooo Ooooo
I’ve been kicked in the britches again
Ooooo Ooooo
I’ve been kicked in the britches again

Look Away
July 2006
It’s been awhile that you have been gone
And I’ve had a long time for singin’ this song
I’ve had some bad days and let you get to me
But now I have good ones and many to be
Look away, look away, look away, look away
Look away if you don’t like what you see
Cause I’ll be on the lookout for you and your dark shadow
And I will be everything I wanted to be
Yes I will be everything I wanted to be
(bridge)
And now you’re alone
You won’t get no bone
For the doggies have moved in with me, yeah
The doggies have moved in with me.
Look away, look away, look away, look away
Look away if you don’t like what you see
Cause I’ll be on the lookout for you and your dark shadow
And I will be everything I wanted to be
Yes I will be everything I wanted to be
Yes I will be everything I wanted to be
