Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: GUEST Date: 21 Jun 07 - 12:37 AM . . . and John Prine had some other catchy lines in "Sam Stone" like "Little pitchers have big ears" "Sam Stone . . .was alone . . . when he popped his last balloon" His humor continued with songs like "Dear Abby", the one about " Was it the Stanley Brothers who did those classics such as: "Grandpa Fell Asleep and the Hogs Ate Him" or "Son, Get Up and Light the Lamp, I Think I Knocked One of Your Maw's Eyeballs Out" Then there was the megahit: "(I Cannot Hear You With These) Beans In My Ears!" etc., etc., etc., ad nausem!

Subject: ADD: I'D LIKE TO CHECK YOU FOR TICKS From: wysiwyg Date: 20 Jun 07 - 08:01 PM WHAT? Not posted yet?!?!?!? "I'd Like to Check You for Ticks" Clip: http://www.cmt.com/artists/az/paisley_brad/1544217/album.jhtml Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Q1bv1Ywa94 Lyrics: I'D LIKE TO CHECK YOU FOR TICKS As sung by Brad Paisley Every time you take a sip In this smoky atmosphere You press that bottle to your lips And I wish I was your beer In the small there of your back Your jeans are playing peekaboo I'd like to see the other half of your butterfly tattoo. Hey that gives me an idea Let's get out of this bar Drive out into the country And find a place to park. CHORUS: 'Cause I'd like to see you out in the moonlight I'd like to kiss you way back in the sticks I'd like to walk you through a field of wildflowers And I'd like to check you for ticks. I know the perfect little path Out in these woods I used to hunt Don't worry babe I've got your back And I've also got your front Now, I'd hate to waste a night like this I'll keep you safe you wait and see The only thing allowed to crawl all over you when we get there is me. You know every guy in here tonight Would like to take you home But I've got way more class than them Babe that ain't what I want. You never know where one might be There's lots of place that are hard to reach... I'd sure like to check you for ticks... |

Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: GUEST,Jay Date: 20 Jun 07 - 07:22 PM In response to an early post: According to the credits on the "Live At Folsom Prison" album, the song "I've Been Flushed From The Bathroom Of Your Heart" was written by Jack Clement, who also wrote the preceding song "Dirty Old Egg Sucking Dog" (another humorous title and tune). Harlan Howard did write two of the songs on that album; "Busted" which originally appeared on Cash's album; "Blood, Sweat And Tears" and "The Wall" which originally appeared on his "Orange Blossom Special" album. "I Forgot To Remember To Forget" by Elvis and Johnny is another funny title. "All My Ex's Live In Texas" by George Strait was a funny song title. |

Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: GUEST,TJ in San Diego Date: 20 Jun 07 - 11:52 AM Jimmy Buffet, I believe, was once responsible for one of those "tell us what you're really thinkin'" song titles: "Why don't we get drunk and s---w?" I always secretly admired those who didn't dwell in a euphemistic world. |

Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: Big Al Whittle Date: 20 Jun 07 - 05:29 AM E-mail this morning from the Derbyshire Evening Telegraph. They have received a message that the lyrics of Buster the Line Dancing Dog were a little 'blue'. This is because they inadvertently put the version we had hoped would interest Bernard Wrigley on their website, instead of the radio friendly version Jack Hudson got in the country charts for us. All of which goes to show - there are people out there listening. One forgets that sometimes. Both versions can be heard for free on my website. http://bigalwhittle.co.uk/ |

Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: GUEST,TJ in San Diego Date: 18 Jun 07 - 01:59 PM "If nobody calls, you'll know it's me." "Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed," by that old politically incorrect Texas charmer, Kinky Friedman. An altered version of Johnny Cash's old hit, "I walk the line," which goes: "I keep a close watch on this heart of mine. I keep my pants up with a piece of twine. I keep the ends out for the tie that binds ... Just say you're mine; I'll cut the twine!" |

Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: HouseCat Date: 18 Jun 07 - 01:43 PM I once wrote, in a fit of anger: I can't cry you away I can't pray you away, I can't stand the sight of you, Guess I'll have to kill you. The rest of the song was even worse. Never gave it a title...nor sang it in public... HC |
|
Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: Big Al Whittle Date: 18 Jun 07 - 12:36 PM Big story about Buster the Line dancing Dog in the The Derby Evening Telegraph and their website tomorrow. Also I think the Derbyshire Times is going to run with the sory at the end of the week. |

Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: dwditty Date: 15 Apr 05 - 06:52 PM George Jones If Your Phone Don't Ring, It'll Be Me. |
|
Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: PoppaGator Date: 15 Apr 05 - 06:04 PM I think that everyone except me has mentioned "Dropkick Me Jesus (Through the Goal Posts of Life)." I merely pointed out that it has been the most-often and most-repetitiously cited title on this thread. I mean, it's funny, but not that funny ~ enough already! |
|
Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: Arkie Date: 14 Apr 05 - 11:58 PM Another from the country vaults: Conway Twitty's "I Guess My Eyes Were Bigger Than My Heart". |
|
Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: Once Famous Date: 13 Apr 05 - 11:23 AM Of course Nashville is still cranking them out. The very recent hit by Big & Rich "Save a Horse, ride a Cowboy." |
|
Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: NormanD Date: 13 Apr 05 - 11:06 AM Another great line from Sam Stone is "..the kids ran around wearin' other peoples' clothes... ". Such a few simple words that tell a whole story. |
|
Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: Bob the Postman Date: 12 Apr 05 - 08:51 PM "I got bubbles in my bath from fartin' while I'm laughin' 'bout the way my pit-bull killed your ugly cat" |
|
Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: Arkie Date: 12 Apr 05 - 08:33 PM Fiona, there's no need to apologize. That is probably the line most people remember from Sam Stone. That is a line that will stay with you after the song has gone. |
|
Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: FINAN Date: 12 Apr 05 - 08:29 PM Another Hank Wangford toon - Cowboys Stay On Longer. And some others by other unknown artists: "If you wanna keep your beer cool, keep it next to my ex-wifes heart", "If you're gonna leave me, walk out the door backwards so I;'ll think you're comin' in" |
|
Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: Fiona Date: 12 Apr 05 - 08:07 PM Arkie, I didn't know 'Sam Stone' and only vaugely remembered the line. I'd no idea what the song was about and I'd like to apologise for being a smartarse. Fiona |
|
Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: NormanD Date: 12 Apr 05 - 01:05 PM "Drop Kick Me Jeeeeeez!us" Didn't PoppaGator do that one? How about "I Ain't Married, But The Wife Is" by the great Hank Wangford, a name you shouldn't mis-pronounce. |
|
Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: The Beast of Farlington Date: 12 Apr 05 - 06:05 AM "Drop Kick Me Jesus through the Goal Posts of Life" is a good one. Tee hee! |

|
Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: GUEST Date: 11 Apr 05 - 10:28 PM methinks the actual title of the SHINY-EYE TWAIN SONG IS whose bed have your boots been under? |
|
Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: GUEST,Sidewinder. Date: 11 Apr 05 - 10:07 PM I think the song "Somebody Else's Boots Under My Bed" or something like that was recorded by Shania Twain early in her career. I found a mock country record by Garry ? and his playboy band titled "Where You Born an Asshole?". Also, there's "Dolly Partons T*ts" a real humdinger of a tune that one! Regards. Sidewinder. |

Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: PoppaGator Date: 11 Apr 05 - 06:28 PM Jeeeze! How many times are people going to repeatedly mention that Bobby Bare title as though it hadn't been already mentioned several times, most recently (along with the answer to their question) just two posts above, one hour and nineteen minutes earlier? |

Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: fat B****rd Date: 10 Apr 05 - 03:02 PM Yes, yes, yes. But what's the real title of "Somebody Else's Boots Under The Bed" ???????? |
|
Subject: RE: Favourite Country title From: Arkie Date: 09 Apr 05 - 06:12 PM John Prine's song, "Sam Stone" has the line "There's a hole in daddy's arm where all the money goes". |

And there's Tim McGraw's "Refried Dreams." (You'll notice I'm incurably hooked on dreadful puns) |
