Alien Beer-Sucking Highway Joes


Words and Music: Sherman Dorn, 2000

Inspired by this comment by Erica Neely on rec.music.filk:

> Which can be really hard if it gets on a theme that lasts forever which
> you don't have a song for.  I don't have nautical songs, songs about
> mermaids/dragons/unicorns/con running/computers/chocolate/highway
> construction...etc.

which inspired this bit of drivel...

C                                   F                          C
Alien beer-suckin' highway Joes who know their hyperspace lane surveys,
G                                          C         
Tell you to get out of their way while the anti-gravity trucks are rolling.
C                                    F

Hit me on the head with a 2x4x2x4x2x...  (spoken) oh, #&!*#!
