If Dallas Davidson Had Written These Americana Classics


If Dallas Davidson Had Written________



Steve Earle - Copperhead Road

Well my name's Brantley Gallimore
Standin' in the line at the grocery store
The only fake ID we've got is mine
So I'm buying' five jars of Kroger Moonshine



Lyle Lovett - If I Had a Boat
If I had a boat
I'd fill it up with hotties
And if I had a jet ski
I'd ride around my boat
And we could party all night
Shake it for me, hotties
Me upon my jet ski round my boat


Ryan Adams - Come Pick Me Up
I wish I could
Come pick you up
In my truck
Buzz you up
Crank Nickelback
See all my friends
They're all full of beer
There's no lines in your tan
Let's skinny-dip
I wish you would


Lucinda Williams - Car Wheels on a Gravel Road
Chillin' in a pasture outside of Macon
Jay-Z is rappin' on the radio
Smell of bonfire, dip and Jager
Truck wheels on a gravel road


Won't you rock my world little country girl
And ride with me out of town
Check out these sweet deer tracks I got at the tattoo parlor
And then pull your cut-off jeans on down

Brad Paisley Lyric Parody: Pseudo Country Zone


Pseudo Country Zone
(Parody of Brad Paisley's "Southern Comfort Zone")

When your wheelhouse is the sound of Aldean,
The first time you leave it can be weird, but you're appalling

Not everybody drinks and drives, not everybody is a tool
Not every girl wears cut offs, on dates and job interviews
Not everybody likes to pose or dance around on CMT
Not everybody has to list country things to prove they're country

Oh, douchey man,
You won't understand
When I miss Merle singin' me back home
And I'm tired of pickup truck songs
I will lose IQ points till I go
Outside the pseudo country zone

I have heard the songs of Snow; Jr. ain't the only "Hank"
I don't think a country song should make my speakers crank
I have seen Keith Whitley play at a southern rodeo
He didn't mention pasture fights or bust out a hip-hop flow
I really don't like to see somebody take a pee,
All over the things I cherish like art and honesty

And I miss Merle singin' me back home
And I'm tired of pickup truck songs
I will lose IQ points till I go
Outside the pseudo country zone

I hate your tight jeans and your shakin'
Guitars jamming, disco lights
You're so well-trained at fakin'
Unscuffed Justins, teeth pearly white

I have since become a wanderer
Cause I'm sick of all that crap
Sometimes to find a real treasure
You have to leave the beaten path

Clearchannel's playin' a dick again

And I miss Merle singin' me back home
And I'm tired of pickup truck songs
I will lose IQ points till I go
Outside the pseudo country zone

From the Archives: Taylor Swift Parody

from JAN 5, 2009


Mother-in-Law
(Parody of Taylor Swift’s “Tim McGraw”)

My wife said we’ll have a real good time
She’ll only stay a couple of nights
I said “That’s a lie”
She’ll pull up in her SUV
2 weeks of luggage behind the seat
Wearin’ an evil smile
An’ I’ll be fit to be tied before too long
Smokin’ on the back porch wishin’ that battle axe was gone

When I think mother-in-law
I don’t feel too good at all
I dread each visit, every call
Her voice like a goat caught in a gate
And I’ll know happiness
On the day she’s laid to rest
I know she’ll give the good Lord stress
She’ll raise a holy stink
Oh, when I think mother-in-law
I think I need a drink

December saw a month of tears
An’ thankin’ God for ice cold beer
To help me stay sane
That woman cut me down like weeds
Her baby deserves better than me
And I’ll never change
It was hard not to find a gun and put it to good use
But I ain’t suicidal and that bitch is bulletproof

When I think mother-in-law
I don’t feel too good at all
I dread each visit, every call
Her voice like a goat caught in a gate
And I’ll know happiness
On the day she’s laid to rest
I know she’ll give the good Lord stress
She’ll raise a holy stink
Oh, when I think mother-in-law
I think I need a drink

I’ve been sleepin’ on the couch since she left
‘Cause when she fin’ly did go
I told her when she got back home
To tell the other demons hello

When I think mother-in-law
I don’t feel too good at all
I dread each visit, every call
Her voice like a goat caught in a gate
And I’ll know happiness
On the day she’s laid to rest
I know she’ll give the good Lord stress
She’ll raise a holy stink
Oh, when I think mother-in-law
I think I need a drink

Tag
My wife said we’ll have a real good time
She’ll only stay a couple of nights
I said “That’s a lie”

Lyric Parody: The Only Way I Pose (Aldean, Bryan, Church)

The Only Way I Pose

(Parody of "The Only Way I Know" by Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan and Eric Church)

(Jason:)
Well, I stand up here but I don't dance around
Where my lips pour out a kinda whiny sound
Jeans so tight they injure my pair
Telling you I'm country's all I've got to share
I just cover rock music in dust
So country radio don't make a fuss
Sometimes I rap, soccer moms love the fun
Let 'em see my Wrangler buns

That’s the only way I pose
Country for the bros and ho's
Lame-ass songs and wallet chains
Make them dollaz, make it rain
Pluck guitar, I'm holdin'
Can't play it but you don't know it
Dig a little deeper and you won't find anything more
That’s the only way I pose

(Luke:)
The truth, it hurts ‒ I'm a straight-up tool
Used to sing okay till I had you fooled
Country twang to country corny
Found out how to make dumb girls horny
Dance around in my skin tight denim
There ain't even a set of balls in 'em
Bump and grind in my jeans so shiny
Gonna turn round and let you see my hiney

That’s the only way I pose
Country for the bros and ho's
Lame-ass songs and booty shakes
Boom boom speakers, make it rain
Smile big till you're blinded
Credibility, I can't find it
Dig a little deeper and you won't find anything more
That’s the only way I pose

(Eric:)
Behind shades, to the bank I'm laughin'
but I'm way too cool to join in rappin'
I'm an outlaw who's as safe as he can be

That’s the only way I pose
Country for the bros and ho's
Arrogance and indoor shades
Get some cred off Waylon's name
Hey ladies, no peakin'
Just show my ass when I'm speakin'
Dig a little deeper and you won't find anything more
That’s the only way I pose

(All together now)
That’s the only way we pose
Country for the bros and ho's
Diggin' graves, in soft ground
Buryin' the country sounds
Bank vaults are wide open
Hey Jason, stop that gropin'
Dig a little deeper and you won't find anything more
That’s the only way we pose

That's the only way we pose

Johnny Manziel Parody Lyric


I asked our ol' buddy Bobby Joe if it was okay if I posted this. 
Haven't heard back from him, but since he's contributed parodies before and since 
I'll promote his Kindle book of lyric parodies (!!), he'll probably be okay with it.

This is a parody of Shelley Fabares' 1962 #1 hit, "Johnny Angel."

Johnny Football
(©2012 BobbyJoe parody lyrics)

Johnny Football
Johnny Football
Johnny Football
Johnny Football
You're a Heisman to be

Johnny Football
Aggies love him
He's got talent that we can't resist
And he doesn't care if Bama is still pissed

Johnny Football
How they rush him
How he scrambles when the pressure's on
Then he either runs it in or lets go with a bomb

He's a Heisman
If there ever was one
We know they'll call his name
In New York on that day
Other players
Tell us this is their year
But it falls on deaf ears, we'd rather scream and cheer

For Johnny Football
'Cause we love him
And we know that someday he'll draft high
But for right now he's our guy under Texas A&M skies

He's a Heisman
If there ever was one
We know they'll call his name
In New York on that day
Other players
Tell us this is their year
But it falls on deaf ears, we'd rather scream and cheer

For Johnny Football
'Cause we love him
And we know that someday he'll draft high
But for right now he's our guy under Texas A&M skies

Johnny Football
Johnny Football
Johnny Football
Johnny Football
You're a Heisman to be
You're a Heisman to be

Toby Keith Parody

This is kind of an oldie, but it might still be funny to those
of you with a third grade sense of humor (like me).



Need To Potty
(Parody of Toby Keith’s “She’s a Hottie”)

We were jammed in traffic on I-59
My four year old was swayin’ side to side, 
Hunched in his booster seat, squeezing his hips
It happens every time we take a trip

Hey mama, think I’ve gotta
Turn loose of all this juice and water
So find a McDonalds or a rest stop, won’t ya dad?
If I don’t get relief this could really get bad

Potty! Need to potty!! Hey listen up everybody! 
The Iron Man on my underpants
‘bout to turn into Aquaman
Potty! Need to potty!! My tummy’s feelin’ oddly
Oh no ­­­mommy mommy, drive fast daddy daddy, ah ah ah ah ahhhhh 

We were sittin’ in church
Preacher reading a verse
My son dropped his crayon, lookin’ kinda sick
Teardrops in his eyes, he whispered “Uh oh”, I was feelin’ like Noah before the big flow, 
It hurts! Gonna squirt!!! 
He’s sweatin’ through his polo shirt
Mama gotta get that boy to the bathroom and don’t be late
Quick before he gets ahold of the offerin’ plate

Potty! Need to potty!! Hey listen up everybody! 
Preacher shook his head at the scene
Choir lady fainted when he screamed
Potty! Need to potty!! My tummy’s feelin’ oddly
Oh no ­­­mommy mommy, move move daddy daddy, ah ah ah ah ahhhhh 

One Friday night, got the boy off to sleep, 
My wife dimmed the lights and kissed me on the cheek, 
We sipped a little wine and it was getting real hot
When the boy came runnin’ in holding his crotch

Potty! Need to potty!! And I’m so scared of the dark mommy! 
Somebody please come take me to go
Before my private place explodes
Potty! Need to potty!! My sheets are kinda spotty
Get up mommy mommy, what’s wrong daddy daddy?, ah ah ah ah ahhhhh 

Whoops.

Waylon Jennings Parody



I wrote this parody lyric back in 2006 and sadly,
it's gotten way more out of hand since then...

Don’t You Think This Redneck Bit Has Done Got Out of Hand
(Parody of Waylon’s “Don’t You Think This Outlaw Bit has Done Got Out of Hand”)

Verse 1:
I'm for peas and cornbread, and down home honesty
But this song's about the joke some folks have pulled on you and me
Soon as that gal redneck went up to number one
Folks re-found the drawl they’d lost - yeehaw, ain’t this some fun?

Chorus:
Don't you think this redneck bit has done got out of hand
What started out as getting real has turned into a scam
Now everybody’s dipping Skoal and sportin’ farmer’s tans
Don't you think this redneck bit has done got out of hand

Verse 3:
They were singin’ sweet pop music till ol’ Gretchen came along
Then overnight, big pickup trucks and sweet tea filled their songs
Hillbillies, hicks and white trash started skankin’ up the charts
They’re tradin’ in Versace fashion for blue jeans from Walmart

Chorus
Don't you think this redneck bit has done got out of hand
What started out as getting real has turned into a scam
Now everybody’s swiggin’ beer, sayin’ hell yeah and by damn
Don't you think this redneck bit has done got out of hand

Eatin' (Lyric Parody of Eric Church's "Creepin'")



Eatin'
(Parody of Eric Church's "Creepin'")

Like a kitty cat scratchin' on my insides
Feelin' hunger pangs, needin' something fried
From my truck I can smell the meat
Take a run through Burger King
And be eatin', eatin', eatin', eatin',

I pulled outta there with a Whopper and fries
Pants gettin' tight so I unzipped my fly
Since the day you left me baby 
I can feel the lonely, the hungry and lazy
So I'm eatin', eatin', Just a eatin', eatin',

Head to McDonalds, run to Five Guys
Feel Whataburger growin' my thighs
With an empty heart, gotta fill up my belly
Pancakes with molasses and biscuits with jelly
Just a eatin', eatin'

A quarter pound of greasy love
Got ketchup and A-1 flowing through my blood
That Baconator takes over me
Like gravy pouring on some savory beef
Just a eatin', eatin', Just a eatin', eatin',

Head to the Quiznos, Jack in the Box
My Levis Strausses, ridin' my crotch
And you can't forget the Doritos Tacos
Kinda like ranch dressing on top of my nachos
Just a eatin', eatin'

Just last night I saw the light
Of the sign at Bojangles, took a 20 piece ride
Thought I’d find my way out of this weight gain
Only to wind up at Chick-fil-a
Eatin'

Truck Yeah - Parody Lyric





Sucks Yeah

Got Lil' Wayne in here with a name drop
Stumpin' for the white kids who only like hip-hop
Rich guy actin' like a pop-star
When Borchetta's got your back, the shame don't stop
SEC football, Chevys for long hauls, What else can we sell, y'all?
If you follow the crowd and you've never pulled plows
Then you're the folks I'm singing about

You don't care if this sucks, yeah
As long as I say "truck" yeah
Let's throw our hands up yeah
And if you're all dumb enough, I'll have a smash with a song that sucks yeah
I got money out the butt, yeah
But I don't give a what, yeah
Cause I'll make another million off this song that's so crappy
It sucks, yeah

I party in a club that you could never get in
Made more money than you could spend
But you don't care, do you?
I could holler "screw you!"
As long as this sounds cool, no doubt
Got a mid-life crisis, but DJ's play this
Cause I've been around so long
If you like it real fake, make that donkadonk shake
Long as I get paid, I'm happy to say

You don't care if this sucks, yeah
As long as I say "truck" yeah
Let's throw our hands up yeah
And if you're all dumb enough, I'll have a smash with a song that sucks yeah
I got money out the butt, yeah
But I don't give a what, yeah
Cause I'll make another million off this song that's so crappy
It sucks, yeah

I live in LA, drive a car
I don't go to smoky bars
You don't really mind, as you drink your Bud
Crank this in your pickup in the mud
It's ridiculous

You don't care if this sucks, yeah
As long as I say "truck" yeah
Let's throw our hands up yeah
And if you're all dumb enough, I'll have a smash with a song that sucks yeah
I got money out the butt, yeah
Reach down and grab your nuts, yeah
Cause I'll make another million off this song that's so crappy
My fans are vapid
This sucks, yeah

The Ballad of Randy Travis (Parody)


The Ballad of Randy Travis
Sung to the tune of "The Ballad of Jed Clampett."


Come and listen to a story 'bout a man named Ran
Big country star didn't have the best of plans
Late one day he was buying Marlboros,
But you don't have pockets when you don't have clothes
(Butt nekkid, Trans Am, Party time)

Well the next thing you know old Ran's around a tree
Ass in the wind where his pants ought to be
Cop said "Sir, I really think you should come with me"
So they loaded up that drunk who was causing quite a scene
(Obstruction, retaliation, death threats)

Well now it's time to say a prayer for Randy and his woes
We'd like to ask him not to show his junk on the road
And he's invited to a nice rehab facility
Now he has a heaping source for his creativity
(Party like a country star, that's what they're saying now, 
Fake outlaws got nothin' on Randy, ya hear?)

So You Don't Have to Play Me Anymore




So You Don't Have to Play Me Anymore
(Parody of Alan Jackson's "So You Don't Have to Love Me Anymore")

I’ll be the old guy,
I’ll let you pass by,
Just hit fade out,
Cause I'm an old bore
I’ll join AARP,
Eat liver and mincemeat,
So you don’t have to play me anymore.

When you make a playlist,
And my twang ain't on it,
Tell ‘em I'm not good like before,
Just crank some Aldean,
Cause I'm from a tired scene,
So you don’t have to play me anymore.

I will go,
To some nice rest home, and watch Matlock.
Or maybe Jay Leno.
And when you long,
For my old songs,
Play them on the legends show.

If the words I'm singin',
Bout heartache and drinkin',
Make you want to lay down and snore,
You can retire me
To Sansabelt blue jeans,
So you don’t have to play me anymore.

Yeah, I will eat,
Figs and cottage cheese in my rocker.
Yeah, out on some front porch.
So play Luke Bryan,
I've had my time,
I'll go play some shuffleboard.

If you want to come see a show,
I might play a casino,
But you don’t have to play me anymore.

Singin' Bout a Truck (Somethin' Bout a Truck Parody)


Singin' Bout a Truck
(Parody of Kip Moore's "Somethin' Bout a Truck")

Singin' bout a truck always seals the deal
Toss in a girl and a farmer's field
Nobody's gonna question if your motive's real
Singin' bout a truck, it don't take much skill

Tell 'em bout a beer, preferably light
No need to rock the boat, just keep your rhymes tight
Throw in a tailgate, set the scene just right
Singin' bout a beer, no need to think twice

Gotta have a girl ,if you want some success
Put her in cut-offs or a cute sundress
The teen demographic has to be impressed
So sing about a girl and get your wallet blessed

Now there's gotta be some making out for you to score
It should be her first time, she can't be a whore
No kinky stuff now, like handcuffs or back doors
Nothing's more wholesome than a country girl's drawers

Singin' bout a truck seals the deal
And a girl with big breasts in the video just makes sense
Cause CMT can't resist
Something about boots and jeans and familiar scenes
Oh Lord have mercy, I can hear that cha-ching
It's scientific not luck, singin' bout a truck

Somewhere bout the time the sky gets dim
After a few of those beers, country folks show some skin
Skinny dipping' ain't edgy but we can pretend
Somethin' bout a creek makes you more than friends

Singin' bout a truck is the Midas touch
And a girl with a cute butt in the video just makes sense
CMT'll give ya heavy spins
Just write some different words to the same old scenes
Oh Lord have mercy, I can hear that cha-ching
It's scientific not luck, singin' bout a truck
It don't matter if it sucks, singin' bout a truck
