MUSIC FOR SALE

It's been a little slow
With the women lately
Can't seem to find one
Who's willin' to date me

The past few months
My datin life's a zero
It was time to try the advice
Of my country heroes

Really had nothin to lose
My prospects were iffy
And no one was ever wiser
Than the late Joe Diffie

Joe always said
There's something women like
About a pickup man
With an eight foot bed

Went down to the local dealer
Laid down some dough
Set out to find me a woman
In my new Silverado

I went cruisin' through town real slow
The only person I saw was Bobby Joe
A different kind of queen
You all know what I mean

He flagged me down
Asked me for a ride
He was headin to a march
To celebrate his pride

I dropped him off
Headed straight home
Like every night lately
I spent it alone

Quickly realized I'd learned
An expensive lesson
Decided to try the advice
Of the great Willie Nelson

Cashed out my wages at the bank
Headed out to the bar
Spent my whole paycheck
On some ole wreck

We were drinkin and dancin
Havin the time of my life
Till a man grabbed my arm
Said get your hands off my wife

Hurried outta the bar
Headed straight home
Like every night lately
I spent it alone

Now I'm broke till next payday
My truck payment's late
Addin insult to injury
I still can't get a date

My country heroes
Let me down
They sing about how to get a woman
But it sure doesn't work
In my hometown
