Tomcat-Teves
This cat lives at my house
But he don’t belong to me
He’s howlin’ outside my window
Every morning about three
CHORUS-You oughta listen to that Tom Cat howl 2x’s
You know he’s on the prowl
In the evening when the sun goes down
His ears are full of notches
His fur is black as night
He’s bad like Jesse James
He’s a stick of dynamite-CHORUS
When that cat walks on my street
All the dogs go run and hide
The lady cats start crying
Cause they want to go outside-CHORUS
Ain’t a rat bird or rabbit
Left in my neighborhood
Can’t tell quite where he’s going
But you know it’s nowhere good-CHORUS
He shows up in the morning
All beat up tired and thin
I open up my door and
He drags his bad self in-CHORUS
Gone-Teves
City women and their conversations
Run in circles all around my head
This clean living be the death of me
I’m going South to the riverbed
I’m gonna jump down in that muddy water
Feel the clay push up between my toes
I’m heading on back to the country boys
I’m so tired of the status quo
CHORUS-I need some grease in my diet
I’m gonna party like it’s Mardi Gras
I’m gonna drink some country whiskey and like it
Like a punch in the mouth I hope it takes me out
And I’m gone
Don’t want to make the morning papers
Don’t want to make the evening news
I don’t want to talk to nobody
Man, I’ll have to lie to em’ if I do
I hear the weather’s nice in Carolina
And the Ladies talk so nice and slow
Biscuits and Gravy and
Southern Belles named Sadie
Yeah, they do it for me, don’t you know?
CHORUS
SOLO
I picked up my check and I filled up my wreck
With oil, air, and gasoline
I got an itch that I need to scratch
I’m busting out of quarantine
I’ll be a heading out in the morning
I’ll be avoiding all authorities
Just a little country boy with an old guitar
Way back up in the evergreens
I’m going and I won’t be writing
Don’t you bother even trying to call
I’ll be hanging with Beaux
at a place you don’t know
We’ll be a fishing by the waterfall
CHORUS
You Shouldn’ta Oughta Done It-Teves
I tried to tell you baby
You don’t hear what I say
You keep lining up them bills
You can’t afford to pay
You shouldn’ta oughta done it
You shouldn’ta oughta done it
You shouldn’ta oughta done it
Done that thing you shouldn’t do
You been drinking moonshine whiskey
Like water from a spring
you keep on talking crazy
but you never say a thing
CHORUS
You keep on running circles like
A chicken without a head
The way that you been living
Someday you’ll wake up dead
CHORUS
You drank up all your money
Now you’re begging round for more
Don’t waste your time with me darlin’
Cuz I’m showing you the door
CHORUS
My Legs Don't Work-Teves
With money in my pocket-a glimmer in my eye
I’m hanging with the Natives-
on a down home Friday night
Hanging with the buddies-my belly’s on the bar
I tried to stand and found-I’ve gone a bit too far
CHORUS-Now my legs don’t work-my legs don’t work
Might be something that I drank-
or something that I took
But my legs don’t work, my legs don’t work
Don’t know how I got here-don’t know where I been
Propped up on this barstool-My wallet’s feeling thin
My friends have all departed-I’m fending for myself
My wounds are self inflicted-I can’t blame nobody else
CHORUS-SOLO
The party keeps on rolling-The band gives all they got
The singer’s testifying-The guitar leads swing hot
Thank you dear for asking-You know I’d love to dance
But something’s got a hold on me-
I’m stuck here in a trance
CHORUS-SOLO
Constitution’s made of steel-You know I’m hard to kill
My situation’s disconcerting-It’s beatin’ down my will
I might need to call a taxi-Might need to get some rest
I might need to call a doctor-to run a bunch of tests
CHORUS
Blues For Christmas-Teves
I got the Blues for Christmas
Still had the blues on New Years Eve 2x’s
You know my baby went off and left me
And these blues just would not leave
I didn’t pay the electric bill in October
December 24th you know they cut me off 2x’s
It so cold in this old house
And I got me a real bad cough
Outside the wind is howling
I swear it’s forty below 2x’s
You know my baby took all my matches
And left my stocking full of coal
SOLO
STOP-Some carolers came down my street
Singing silent night and jingle bells too
But when they got down to my house
All they could sing was the low down dirty blues
I got the Blues for Christmas
Still had the blues on New Years Day-2x’s
You know my baby went off and left me
And these blues are here to stay
Daisy Mae-Teves
Daisy Mae Daisy Mae 3x’s
Why do you always run away?
I thought that you loved me I guess it was a lie
I open up my front door and away you fly
CHORUS-Daisy Mae Daisy Mae-3x’s
Why do you always run away
You emptied out my kitchen tore up my bedroom too
All I do is wonder what’s the next thing that you’ll do
CHORUS
SOLO
IV-Well you’re the biggest girl that I’ve ever met
I-I haven’t seen the worst of you yet
IV-Can’t figure out what’s in your pedigree
V-I wonder if it’s worth it if you come back home to me
CHORUS
SOLO
When I’m working late
I just know you’re running free
The day is coming soon
When you’ll be history
CHORUS
Pistol In Your Pocket-Teves
Put a Pistol in your pocket
Put a razor in your shoe 2x’s
You better arm yourself
I’m coming after you
Make peace with your family
and settle your affairs 2x’s
You better watch your back
You need to live in fear
SOLO
Don’t you cry to your mamma
that you were never warned 2x’s
you done messed with the bull
now you gonna get the horn
SOLO
REPEAT FIRST VERSE
