Lyrics Big Cheeseburgers and Good French Fries - Blaze Foley, Ben Dickey

Big Cheeseburgers and Good French Fries

I got an angel of woman with big blue eyes
Friends in the country, old neckties
Big cheeseburgers and good French fries
Could go fishing but the fish draw flies
Could go swimming if it ain’t too deep
I’d rather just sit here and rest my feet
I know I ain’t lazy cause I don’t like sleep
Might just be lazy to you
I want to live in the city have a telephone
Live in the country throw my dog a bone
Ride on space ship want to get lost
Mama still tell me about the Pentecost
Ride a bicycle but my ass gets sore
Sell the holy bibles, door to door
Used to be stupid but ain’t no more
Might just be stupid to you
I like to drink beer, hang out in bars
Don’t like busses, and I don’t like cars
Don’t like president, don’t like stars
Never had stitches, but I do got scars
Love to go to parties, I love my friends
Got no books, just got bookends
Thing I’m crazy, well that depends
It don’t seem that crazy to me
The story’s old as since 74
There’s always doing, here’s some more
Friend come over from the liquor store
Jole he dance till his feet get sore
Love my woman and my woman loves me
Don’t go skiing cause I can’t ski
That kinda thing, that didn’t bother me
So it should’t be bothering you
I got an angel of woman with big blue eyes
Friends in the country, old neckties
Big cheeseburgers and good French fries
Could go fishing but the fish draw flies
Could go swimming if it ain’t too deep
I’d rather just sit here and cool my feet
I know I ain’t lazy cause I don’t like sleep
Might just be lazy to you
Might just be stupid to you
Don’t seem that crazy to me
Well it shouldn’t be a bothering you
