doublewide blues
Double wide blues I got the blues, double wide V-neck t-shirt, with a mustard stain Rollin' up a hose, outside in the rain He's been my neighbor since seventy-nine 'Course he was in prison most of that time  Ever since then he just aint been right his old lady works days and they fight most nights Laid off and blown off, pissed off on booze Double wide blues  Metallica song blastin' out from two trailers down Its them cut of t-shirt numb chuck kids comin' around Tonight they'll get drunk, try to get laid End up in a fight out behind the arcade  You know one of them little shits broke my window last spring I told his momma she didn't do anything She works two jobs, he runs loose Double wide blues  Double wide blues I got the blues, double wide  My buddy Jimmy, now his trailers cool He got him a deck with one of them blue plastic pools Workin construction, he builds speck homes His old lady left him, now he's down there alone  My friend Anita, she loves him, but he don't know He's so busy chasin' my neighbor's wife, Flo Soap opera heaven without all the clues Double wide blues  Double wide blues I got the blues, double wide  Wild Bill the manager he keeps to himself The war took his smile like them pills took his health Too old to run with the Klan anymore US Flag hangin' outside his door  I sit here watchin' all this nothin' go on I don't get out much now since momma's been gone Sometimes its nice, havin' nothin' to lose Double wide blues  Double wide blues I got the blues, double wide  Take me home boys I think I'm drunk
