Say Something

歌詞

By David Allan Coe Dedication: This song is for Jimmy Carter who wants women to be drafted and I agree. I think they ought to draft women too, at least some women, but not my daughters, or my mother or any of the women I know unless maybe my mother-in-law... I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO SAY, BOYS I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO SAY JUST AS SOON AS I CAN FIND A WAY, BOYS I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO SAY. I WAS STANDING IN A ALLY ONE DARK LONELY NIGHT THERE WERE THREE OR FOUR SHOTGUNS WANTING TO FIGHT NOW ME AND THE DEVIL WE WERE SEEING THE LIGHT LOOKING FOR SOMEPLACE TO RUN AND I SAID I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO SAY BOYS I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO SAY JUST AS SOON AS I CAN FIND A WAY BOYS I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO SAY I CAUGHT WITH A COUPLE OF FRIENDS I WAS JUST SLIPPING OUT, THEY WAS JUST SLIPPING IN I WAS TOO HURT TO LAUGH, I WAS TO SICK TO GRIN WATCHING THE WOMAN I LOVE THE COP AT THE GATE SWORE I WAS INSANE CAUSE ME AND MY PISTOL TRIED BOARDING A PLANE NOW WE WERE BOTH LOADED AND ITS HARD TO EXPLAIN HOW WED EVER GOTTEN THAT FAR I WAS THE FIRST ONE TO GET THE LAST LAUGH WHEN THEY SAID MY SON WAS TO OLD FOR THE DRAFT THAT'S WHEN THE GOVERNMENT GAVE ME THE SHAFT DRAFTED MY DAUGHTER INSTEAD!
