Doublewide Blues Lyrics


Doublewide Blues
I got the Blues
DoublewideV neck t-shirt with a mustard stain
Rollin' up a hose, outside in the rain
He's been my neighbor since 'bout seventy-nine
'Course he was in prison most of that timeEver since then he just ain't been right
His old lady works days and they fight most night
Laid off and blown off, pissed off on booze
Doublewide BluesMetallica song, blasting from three trailers down
It's them cut off t-shirt and numbchuck kids comin' around
Tonight they'll get drunk, try to get laid
End up in a fight, out behind some arcadeYou know one a them little shits, broke my window last spring
I told his Mama and she didn't do anything
She works two jobs, the boy runs loose
Doublewide BluesDoublewide Blues
I got the Blues
DoublewideMy buddy Jimmy, his trailers cool
He got him a deck, with one of them, blue plastic pools

He works in construction, builds speck homes
His woman left him now, so, now he's down there, aloneMy friend Anita, she loves him, he don't know
He's too busy chasing my neighbors wife Flo
Soap opera Heaven, without all the clues
Doublewide BluesDoublewide Blues
I got the Blues
DoublewideWild Bill, the manager, he keeps to himself
The war took his smile, like 'em pills took his health
He is too old to run around with the Klan anymore
Still got a Confiderate flag hangin up outside his doorI sit here watchin' all this nothin' go on
I don't get out much since O Jay's been on
Sometimes it's nice havin' nothin' to lose
Sometimes Doublewide BluesDoublewide Blues
I got the Blues
DoublewideDoublewide Blues
I got the Blues
DoublewideTake me home, boys, think I'm drunk

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Todd Daniel Snider is a singer-songwriter born October 11, 1966 in Portland, Oregon. Best known for his wry humor, Snider has been a fixture on the Americana, alt-country, and folk scene since his debut on MCA, entitled Songs for the Daily Planet, named for the bar where Snider used to play regularly in Memphis. On that album were the minor hits "Talkin' Seattle Grunge Rock Blues", a folk song about the early '90's grunge scene, featuring a band that "refused to play", and "Alright Guy", which later became the title cut of Gary Allan's 2001 album.
