| Back Off! This has gone on Quite long enough It stops right now You're not so tough You've been hanging All over him The whole night long While light's were dimmed But he is mine And I don't share Oh sure, he flirts But I don't care Because I know That in the end He'll leave with me For home again I'll tell you now That you ain't got What it would take To take my spot To get to him You'd have to go Right through me first We'd come to blows And you would not Be able to Come out on top I'd wipe the floor With your behind So back off now And you'll be fine This man is mine Though he might play It's just for fun What do you say? Do things have to Get ugly here? Or have you heard Me loud and clear? It's up to you You make the call But I promise You'll take the fall I'm used to this I fight a lot No one's taking What I have got So either move Or I'll move ya I've nothing else To say to ya So what's it worth To you, you wench Cause I won't budge Even an inch If I have to I sure will fight Be he's leaving With me tonight Copyright � 4/19/2001 Terri Lyn Stanfield All Rights Reserved |
| Good Ole Boys You think you're tough, you know the score But you don't know what you're in for You'll play their game, and by the rules That's been the end of lesser fools These good ole boys are serious When you're talking bout game or fish They have been taught, almost from birth That how to measure a man's worth Is by how many points there are On the antlers mounted so far Or by the size of their prize bass Or how many fish they caught last You city boys don't understand What this means to a country man It is a sacred way of life To the woe of many a wife It's not how much money you make When his reputation's at stake It's their finesse at calling ducks And whether it is skill or luck And who can bag the biggest deer Those are the things that matter here So if you think that it's a game Your comprehension is just lame It's a big part of how your viewed And your perception seems quite skewed But if you want to fit in here You'll shift into good ole boy gear Copyright � 4/10/2001 Terri Lyn Stanfield All Rights Reserved |
