Back To Get You Some Of Me


Shootin' Up Signs

Bill Davis
Dash Rip Music BMI / Bug Music

All the good rock & rollers are dead
And most of them got killed in airplane crashes
So don't take away my reason to live
I feel like I'm diggin' through everyone's trash
I'm ridin' through the woods puttin' holes in signs
People down South don't read them half the time
Just a bad sinner with no reason to be
Hopefully I'll drag you down with me

If I had a Yugo I'd drive it through Hurricane Hugo
But this town's such a horrible bore I can't stand it I can't take it no more
No!

Speed limit 65 (we're shootin' up signs)
No tress-passing (shootin' up signs)
Baton Rouge 50 miles, 50 miles

We'll I've been shootin' up signs since you were still in diapers
Drinkin' and rasin' cane with the Blue Vipers
Got my own room in the Coffee County Jail
Everybody knows we were raisin' some hell
All my great heros have taken the fall
Mos of them died from drugs and alcohol
Hank Williams, Ghram Parsons, Ronnie Van Zant
I'd like to bring them back but I know that I can't

When I'm in a record store I wanna take the cd's and stomp them on the floor
All this bad music is bringin' me down I can't stand it I can't stand these bad sounds
No!
