Know a girl
don’t believe in love at all
Hearts been broken
thrown against the wall
a little prison she builds on her own
take it or leave it
she’s movin on
Love’s a battle
can’t never be won
just let it alone
so she can have her fun
she’s out on the town
all the misery-o
if you’re goin out again
just give me a call
she’s a mystery
to me and herself
she might like you
but she loves herself
in her eyes all anger and fear
she ain’t gonna show it
won’t shed a tear
Pre-release version:
No Love
Nov 142008
Wore out strings, know broken dreams,
empty glasses know broken hearts
Like a forest bereft of all streams,
they don’t like to be apart
Give it some time,
let nature take hold.
Forests ‘r like hearts,
they like to grow old
And he played the fiddle
while she would dance
short skirt twirled ’round corduroy pants.
Old age, new age,
we’ll meet in the middle
Singing the song of forbidden fiddle
Old rusty dinghy,
brand new cell phone
Best thing about
those they always see you home
He rows his boat
like she goes to the store
Buyin’ brand new clothes
she can’t afford
And he played the fiddle
while she would dance
short skirt twirled ’round corduroy pants.
Old age, new age,
we’ll meet in the middle
Singing the song of forbidden fiddle
Pre-Release Version:
Forbidden Fiddle

Tank full of gas
Cooler full of beer
And a hot girl by my side
Beach full of sand
Aint nothing planned
One thing on my mind
Jump in the ocean
Sun tan lotion
want me to apply?
wet bikini
dry martini
anchor over the side
gonna have ourselves a time tonight
find a cove
that no one knows
listening to prine
cookies and gin
put the hendricks in
another slice of lime
coke and whiskey
chicks are frisky
stars are out tonight
Huggin Kissin
Bathing suit missing
Better close the blinds
gonna have ourselves a time tonight
gonna have a sandy bed tonight
gonna have a sunburn tonight
Alternate version:
Have Ourselves a Good Time Tonight (5)

Douchebags everywhere
popped collars and stupid hair
baseball hat
at the perfect angle
Kegstands in the air
shotgun or funnel a beer
ice luge
with a shot of jaegar
Short skirt and makeup on
showing off a sexy thong
tramp stamp
that says i’m easy
all the guys think im hot
showing off what I got
and that aint much
but i’m horny
Red plastic cup
gonna go and fill it up
aint going home alone again
Red plastic cup
30 grand just to fill it up
But I’m hooking up again
I won’t call her in the morning
He’ll call me in the morning
hungover looking for
self-esteem

Here’s a PDF that details my first attempt at making ribs in an oven. I took pictures too, but it’s too late, and my stomach is too full to bother posting those…
I wrote a letter left it on the door
You went and changed the locks
Do I live here anymore
And I pay my bills
Changed the will
Living the divorced life
I can’t live without a wife
Kids are changing schools
You make up the rules
with your dime store book advice
I can’t live
With you anymore.
With broken vows
nights out on the town
You went and left it all
Are you the same anymore
The young guys tell you
‘What you doing here’
I’d sleep with you tonight
Tomorrow your age
wrinkles on the stage
of celebrity from the night before

Some people ask me how many drinks does it take
To write those songs, songs that you make
And I tell them I don’t know
So just stop asking cause when i’m talking to you
I’ve probably already had a few
and if you aint careful
the next song
will be about you

When I was a child I took a drive
with my dear grandpa
cross country, I found the man in me
We got so close singing to the songs
the night got late, the road got long
I got hungry he stopped for me
He’s my grandpa
And I love him
I can’t wait
to see him again
I want to talk
bout the trip we had
And tell him that I love him
I was a boy with a mind so so wild
I ate pancakes
too many for a child
but I felt like a man
with my grandfather-man
I got sick and he understood
Just like the man, that I knew he was
yes he was
perpetually kind,
give his sight to the blind
yes he would
He’s my grandpa
And I love him
I can’t wait
to see him again
I want to talk
bout the trip we had
And tell him that I love him
Every day I wake
I know that he’s with me
watching my path looking out for me
and I know someday we’ll meet again
cause he’s my grandfather man
the killer bees are gay, we’ll find a place a to stay
a hundred miles more
and we can pray
A steak and shake a change of clothes
they’ll be on our toes
but we’ve got a stone to take and I know we’ve got to go,
cause he’s my grandfather man

Sometimes I feel so sad
‘Bout the girlfriend
That I don’t have
Sitting home alone again
I want one by my side
A woman through the night
Sometimes I feel it so strong
[chorus]
And then my friend calls me
Bout the troubles he has had
And suddenly
I don’t feel so bad
She aint ever mean
smells so nice and clean
always wakes up with a smile
Ice skating in the snow
Taking off those winter clothes
Making love by the fire
[chorus]
Put on a sexy dress
Your makeup is a mess
Because we’re kissing in the rain
Buying you new clothes
Manicures and pretty toes
That shade sure looks good on you
[chorus]
She tells me she loves me
Want to meet her family
Watch the sunset on the beach
My thoughts all pretty things
Churchbells and wedding rings
Two kids and a house
