Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Im writing a country song.

[ken rentiers (rentiers]

Willi that's the National Anthem of Texas as sung by it's patron  
saint, David Allen Coe, who also gave us the immortal song "If That  
Ain't Country, I'll Kiss Your Ass"

ï

WELL, I WAS DRUNK THE DAY MY MOM GOT OUT OF PRISON
AND I WENT TO PICK HER UP IN THE RAIN
BUT BEFORE I COULD GET TO THE STATION IN MY PICKUP TRUCK
SHE GOT RUNNED OVER BY A DAMNED OLD TRAIN

CHORUS:
AND IâLL HANG AROUND AS LONG AS YOU WILL LET ME
AND I NEVER MINDED STANDINâ IN THE RAIN
NO, ANâ YOU DONâT HAVE TO CALL ME DARLINâ, DARLINâ
YOU NEVER EVEN CALL ME
WELL I WONDER WHY YOU DONâT CALL ME
WHY DONâT YOU EVER CALL ME BY MY NAME
