I can still remember when |
|
Grandpa died and our ship came in |
|
Daddy said he left momma and him more money than they'd ever seen |
|
And just like that we were thousandaires |
|
Had a brand new boat and a Frigidaire |
|
And all us kids in our underwear were jumping on a trampoline |
|
A bunch low lives living the high life |
|
Money burning a hole right through the pockets of holey jeans |
|
Grandpa's with Lord now, but we got a new Ford now |
|
And we can watch the Big Orange now on a 57 inch TV, that's right |
|
Money was gone by mid-July and we went back to just getting by |
|
'Til momma slipped on a patch of ice outside of Chick-Fil-A |
|
Now we knew they was a Christian bunch |
|
So we didn't ask for all that much |
|
Settled out of court for ten thousand bucks |
|
And free chicken 'til I die a day |
|
A bunch low lives living the high life |
|
Money burning a hole right through the pockets of holey jeans |
|
Momma's got a limp now but we all get to swim now |
|
Cause we got an above ground sitting out by the trampoline |
|
We walked, we rolled, we lived it up until it started running thin |
|
We began looking for a way to spend that will again |
|
I heard a song a couple months ago, was Carrie Underwood on the radio |
|
Reminded me of a poem my brother wrote back in second grade |
|
I know she didn't steal it but so what? We lawyered up and we sued her butt |
|
These days we figured we'd pretty much get paid to go away |
|
A bunch low lives living the high life |
|
Money burning a hole right through the pockets of a holey jeans |
|
This song's another one now, know I get a hot tub now |
|
Set it next to the above ground sitting out by the trampoline |
|
It's gonna run out some day |
|
And that ain't gonna be a fun day |
|
But as long as it ain't a Sunday |
|
We can go to Chick-Fil-A and eat |
|
[Spoken:] |
|
Man I love those Waffle fries (I know) |
|
That Chick-Fil-A has got some good waffle fries (I'd say, that's right) |
|
Maybe I'll get a diet Coke, I don't know (I wish they had beer, it'd be perfect) |
|
I like the little trays that the food comes on (I like the Polynesian sauce) |
