SONG CHALLENGE WINNER!

Thay That Again, You Thwollen Thongue Thevil -- A jury in Tavares, Florida, convicted Leal Fleming, 45, of drunk driving in November, despite his insistence that the reason he slurred his words to a police officer, and couldn't breathe into a breathalyzer, was that he had just been bitten on the tongue by a rat snake and was on his way to a hospital to get treatment for the swelling. Said Fleming after the trial, "After the verdict came in, I had some second thoughts (about not taking an offered plea bargain), but I still think there was a point to our defense."


You Tongue In Groove by Clifton53
(Tune:  You Got To Move)

You tongue in groove, you tongue in groove
Make no mistake babe, you tongue in groove
Oh when the law, gets ready, you tongue in groove

You might be drunk, and headin' south
A crawlin' rat snake, done bit your mouth
But when the law gets ready, you tongue in groove

My name's Leal, I'm forty-five
Might be a tippler, I like to drive
But when the law gets ready, you tongue in groove

They pulled me in, down Florida way
I'm here to tell 'ya, they do not play
'Cause when the law gets ready, you tongue in groove

I told this cop, about my plight
He told me buddy, you're one sad sight
And when the law gets ready, you tongue in groove

I said " it's true, the snake done bit"
He laughed so loudly, I thought he'd shit
Now when the law gets ready, you tongue in groove

He said " Leal, you come with me"
"You're slurrin' every, X Y Z"
So when the law gets ready, you tongue in groove

The judge said " man, your story's bunk"
"There ain't no rat snake, down in your trunk
And when the law gets ready, you tongue in groove

Take my advice, listen to me
Reptile venom, it ain't no plea
Boy when the law gets ready, you tongue in groove

You tongue in groove, you tongue in groove,
Make no mistake child, you tongue in groove
Oh when the law gets ready, you tongue in groove
