Francene Lyrics
2 ContributorsFrancene LyricsGot a girl, her name's Francine
Finest thing you ever seen
And I love her, she's all that I want
And I need her, she's all that I need
Well, Francine, oh Francis, why
Do you love me and make me cry?
How I love her, she's all that I want
How I need her, she's all that I need
If I ever caught her with Stevie P
I'd throw her back in the Penitentiary, now
And if I caught her with my mother's son
I'll call her daddy and get my gun
My Francine just turned thirteen
She's my angelic teenage queen
And I love her, she's all that I want
And I need her, she's all that I need
And I love her, she's all that I want
And I need her, she's all that I need
And I love her, she's all that I want
And I need her, she's all that I need
Just Got Paid Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Just got paid today
Got me a pocket full of change
Said, I just got paid today
Got me a pocket full of change
If you believe like working hard all day
Just step in my shoes and take my pay
[Verse 2]
I was born my papa's son
When I hit the ground I was on the run
I had one glad hand and the other behind
You can have yours, just give me mine
When the hound dog barking in the black of the night
Stick my hand in my pocket, everything's all right
[Verse 3]
I just got paid today
Got me a pocket full of change
Said, black sheep black
Do you got some wool?
Yes, I do, man, my bag is full
It's the root of evil and you know the rest
But it's way ahead of what's second best
Mushmouth Shoutinâ Lyrics
[Chorus]
You know that I'm wild about you, baby
Been keeping me from my sleep at night
You know I'm hung up on you, little doll
You just don't treat your daddy right
[Verse 1]
You know you crazy when you get drunks
You be talking all out your head
You're acting mighty strange about me
Saying those things you said
[Chorus]
I'm just wild about you, baby
Been keeping me from my sleeps at night
You know I'm hung up on you, little darling
You just don't treat your daddy right, oh yeah
[Verse 2]
D'ya know I came home last night
And I looked down on the floor
I saw a fine pair of alligators
Something I ain't never had before
[Chorus]
Well, I'm wild about you, baby
Been keeping me from my sleeps at night
You know I'm hung up on you, little darling
You just don't treat your daddy right, oh yeah
[Verse 3]
Say now, if you come in after dawn
Stop messing round with me
Trying to make me out a dumbbell
Something I ainât
Never going to be
[Outro]
I'm still wild about you, baby
Been keeping me from my sleeps at night
You know I'm hung up on you, little darling
You just don't treat your daddy right
Ko Ko Blue Lyrics
[Verse 1]
One, two, whatcha gonna do?
Can you come and see me tonight?
Black, white, feel alright
If you could in broad daylight
[Chorus]
If I could get to see her
You know I'd try to please her
Oh my Ko Ko
Don't try to ask me why
She set my soul on fire
Oh my Ko Ko Blue
Oh my Ko Ko Blue
[Verse 2]
You're hot and cold, I'm rolling low
Juking down to twelve midnight
On ice cream, you know what I mean
I think I got a flavor you'll like
[Chorus]
If I could get to see her
You know I'd try to please her
Oh my Ko Ko
Don't try to ask me why
She set my soul on fire
Oh my Ko Ko Blue
Oh my Ko Ko Blue
[Verse 3]
Hillbilly Willy, he's quite a guy
From eating some of Ko Ko's pie
She's nice if you ask her twice
Ask him and he'll testify
[Chorus]
If I could get to see her
You know I'd try to please her
Oh my Ko Ko
Don't try to ask me why
She set my soul on fire
Oh my Ko Ko Blue
Oh my Ko Ko Blue
Chevrolet Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In a flat Forty-One with my Strat by the door
We was going to the country
For what we came for
I'm sure you've smelled the trees in the air
The best of motor cruising's
Just the joy to get there
[Verse 2]
I was approaching Simonton
Down by the cotton gin
There was old man Berkman
Trying to flag me in
He asked if I would stay awhile
And if I needed gas
I said, "No thanks anyhow
I don't drive too fast"
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Ride my Chevrolet
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Ride my Chevrolet
[Verse 3]
I took the road down to Cinco
Through that red Brazos River land
Done hit that freeway at sunset
Now the big city lights are at hand
[Outro]
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Ride my Chevrolet
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Ride my Chevrolet
BarâBâQ Lyrics
[Verse 1]
No baby, tell me why don't you?
Well, now baby, tell me why don't you?
Aw baby, tell me why don't you?
[Verse 2]
No baby, now want to make me some?
Oh, now baby, now want to make me some?
Aw baby, now want to make me some?
[Verse 3]
No baby, tell me why don't you?
Oh, now baby, tell me why don't you
Make me some of your fine famous Bar BQ?
Sure Got Cold After the Rain Fell Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Rain fell this mornin', make me feel so bad
On account of my baby
Walked off with another man
Like taking eyesight from the blind man
And money from the poor
That woman took my loving
And walked on out that door
[Chorus]
And it sure got cold after the rain fell
Not from the sky, from my eye
[Verse 2]
Somebody, can you tell me
Just what make a man feel this way?
Like river without itâs water
Like night without a day
[Chorus]
And it sure nuffâ got cold after the rain fell
Not from the sky, but from my eye
[Verse 3]
If you're home early in the morning
You hear that rain to fall
With thunderbolts and lightning
The wind begins to call
Your worry's superficial
Because you slept on through the night
But stormy weather keep you wondering
If everything's all right
[Chorus]
And it sure nuff' got cold after the rain fell
Not from the sky, but from my eye
Not from the sky, from my eye
Whiskeyân Mama Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm so tired, you on my head
Whiskey'n mama, you shouldn't have said
You wanted me to be your lover true
Then turn around
And treats me just likes you do
I should have known better
Than to fool with a whiskey'n mama
[Verse 2]
Now I could be right and could be wrong
You been laying out all night long
You telephoned this morning
Said you'd be home soon
The doorman said he seen you
At the Club Blue Lagoon
I should have known better
Than to fool with a whiskey'n mama
[Chorus]
Whiskey'n mama, you standing there
With your curly hair
Just to have you do me good
I know you could if you only would
[Chorus]
Whiskey'n mama, you standing there
With your curly hair
Just to have you do me good
I know you could if you only would
[Outro]
Well, the sun come shining
On the rain soaked street
Whiskey'n mama, where can she be?
I guess I'll have to put you down on my list
I didn't want to do it but you insist
I should have known better
Than to fool with a whiskey'n mama
Down Brownie Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I woke up this morning
Had a smile run across my face
My baby from town just had to get down
Come and drag me all over the place
[Verse 2]
Gone to drive on a flatbed trailer truck
Down on Highway Fifty-Nine
I had the blues and my baby, she knew
She's holding little piece of mind
[Bridge]
Down brownie
My brownie downtown
Down brownie
[Verse 3]
Got my share and I'm a black
Hand cotton field
Just to try and keep myself alive
Eating red beans and rice
With the right sauce, it's nice
Or anything you want to try
[Outro]
Now I'm hitching a ride back from Brownie
I'm kind of sad but I feel alright
The cold night it stings
But I got me some wings
I'll be flying into Houston tonight
