A cautionary tale about a dirty old man named Edward McClanahan. HEEEEEEEED!
lyrics
Edward McClanahan
was a dirty, rotten old man
Used to spit into his hands
before the job, but he had no plans
Edward was a dirty, old codger
Shot and buried his best friend, Roger
"Went away on a trip," he said.
But in his freezer is Roger's head
Well he's an old, mean sack of scat
He sat on his porch, yelling this and that
And if you don't know where he's at
He'll catch you by surprise, and he'll gouge out your eyes
and I won't tell you no lies
He's a sour, old man, that McClanahan
Edward went out one day
He had some bills that he had to pay
Cursed and swore the entire way
And gave the finger to whoever said "Hey"
And at the office where he paid his bills,
The kids were screaming and the lines were filled
Edward lost it and he pulled his gun,
but he was shot down by the Sherif's son
Well he's an old, mean sack of scat
He sat on his porch, yelling this and that
And if you don't know where he's at
He'll catch you by surprise, and he'll gouge out your eyes
and I won't tell you no lies
He's a sour, old man, that McClanahan
Edward's going in the ground
He won't be making another sound
Not a single person in the town
Was there when that day came 'round
The lesson here is to keep your cool
Don't grow to be a hot-headed fool
Listen closely, my dear friend, or you might become
a McClanahan

This is probably my favorite out of your albums so far. it has so many good songs and I enjoy every track. It was a hard pick between what about the old days and the river flows where the mountain leads flower_png
