Redneck Dinner Party



Guests are comin

Hear their on the way

Guess it goes without sayin

They do love to play

Table manners excluded

Slight of hand included

Never know what their holdin

Really never know what their cookin

But ya do get service with a smile,

And a whole lotta backside laughter.



It's in the oven

Can ya smell what's cookin?

Could be a slice of sincerity

A thin cut, mind you

Could have a dash of honesty

But more than likely

It's peppered with dark sage

Seems to be the rage

Nowadays.



Tables set

Sure hope you don't get wet

Remember that cup of fools juice before

Spilt onto your lap as they were leavin out the door

I believe we even played taps,

In memory of a facade.



Dinners served

My lesson learned

Think I'll go out back

Have some dessert

Cup of coffee

It's a whole lot sweeter

Whole lot better

Dinner will just be burnt

Anyways,

Seems to be the rage

Nowadays.



Think I'll do my own cookin

From now on.

Put that in your oven and bake it...
