Thread Name: Lyr Add: The Ballad of Hogzilla
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Ballad of Hogzilla
Works for me LittleHawk. I didn't make up too many of these lyrics, just fudged 'em where I had holes. Let me rework the thing to reflect that and the other two errors plus some akward parts. Mind you, the song I heard used Ken Holyoake's name.. so maybe I shouldn't mess with that. Plus, the guys who shot him never claimed he weight half a ton.. what can you do? I took the lyrics as I heard them. Here's the new and improved version.
The FINAL Final version of:
The Ballad of Hogzilla To the Tune of The Beverly Hillbillies
Well, listen to a story 'bout a Piggy who was overfed til' a farmer in Alapaha shot that sucker dead Hogzilla was his name and he weighed in at half a ton but now his rottin' carcass is just some smelly bacon pork that is... what a waste...
He started out like Babe or just another Porky Pig but roaming round the countryside he sure got real big til one day ole Chris Burgh saw him eatin' up a cow so he got his gun and gave him chase, Hogzilla went down! in history that is... tall tale...
Well Ol' Hogzilla's dead and gone and decayin' in the ground but every Georgian knows where there's one there's more to be found so when yer out in the woods better watch your back my friend cuz Hogzilla's older brother might jess be around the bend! and pissed off he is too.. Fightin' mad!
