Jeff Foxworthy - Nasa, Alabama And Fishin' Shows lyrics

rate me

We've been goin everywhere in this tour, I mean not just big cities, we're goin everywhere.

We were in Huntsville, Alabama A couple a months ago and uh, You know even

growin up in the south I never realized the NASA space camp was in Huntsville, Alabama.

Cuz that's just two words that dont seem like they belong together, NASA and Alabama.

Cuz they might be trainin' 'em there, they're not lettin people from Alabama fly this stuff.

"HEY HOUSTON! IT'S DARK AS CRAP UP HERE! Waitaminnit I did *that* wrong, Break one-nine!

Look, we got problems, Ed's dun busted out the capsule winda' tryin to hit a

satelite with a beer bottle! And we need to know how to unstop the toilet, the

boys ate all the freeze-dried chili and they're tore up somethin bad!"

And you know the thing is, southerners are as smart as anybody else in this country,

our only problem is we just cant keep the most ignorant amongst us off the television.

That's the truth. I mean, every time we have a disaster, they never film a doctor or a lawyer,

they always get that woman in the moo-moo and the sponge rollers. "It was

pandelerium! I thought we'd be killed or even worse. I looked out the window in time to see

the *Jenkin's* house go right over our roof! All I could think was *Carolyn* still has my casserole

dish!"

And I love 'em, but you know those fishin' shows arent helpin' our image any

either. There is somethin about a fishin show, if yer channelsurfing and ya come to one

it will hypnotize you. Cuz ya always end up watchin it for a few minutes and it's the same

thing every week. "Hey there friends, We're fishin on ol' lake Witchahatchee and Today

We're fishin with our old buddy Jerry Reed. Course lotuvya might remember

Ol' Jerry caught the biggest bass ever caught on our show, and like all our guests,

Ol' Jerry let 'im go. We had ta whack 'is ass with a boat paddle, but ol' Jerry let 'im go.

Well, today they're not bitin too good, That's why Jerry and I were gonna try some

of these deep-runnin lures and We're gonna spray 'em with some of this P-U-Stink bait.

Whoooo, hoo-hoo-hooooo, well that's one product that lives up to it's name right there.

Jerry, smell my finger, tell me that dont stink. I tell ya one thing friends,

you spray that on your lure you can scratch fish off the grocery list And hey, another thing,

remember conservation is everybody's responsibility, so when yer out on the lake drinkin

beer, dont just fling yer cans out the boat, fill 'em up with water, make sure they sink to the

bottom."
