Buttermilk Boy |
| Yeah, she pays no mind to methods you employ |
| She wants a big city man, not a country boy |
| Go get your long hair cut |
| Scrape the mud off your boots |
| Eh, wash the hell behind those ears |
| Buy yourself some tailored suits |
| Oh, Buttermilk Boy better gain some pounds |
| Before she lets her knickers down |
| She wants a musclely man all gristle and bone |
| Makes no difference how you strive |
| She couldn’t care if you were dead or alive |
| A burly, beefy, strong arm man |
| Is all she cares to meet |
| Before you ever heard the word guitar |
| Yes, your mother used to see her as a star |
| Yes, she spent her teens? |
| In chauffered limosines-- |
| And I heard tell you can’t get insured |
| For a clapped out '45 drop head Ford |
| Oh, Buttermilk Boy better gain some pounds |
| Before she lets her knick, knick, knick, knickers down |
| She wants a musclely man all gristle and bone |
| She’ll tear you down like a steer comin' through |
| Like I said she ain’t no use to you |
| A lumpy hairy mundane brain |
| Is all she cares to make |
| So let me put you straight, yeah |
| Marry farm-yard Kate |
| Yep, she weighs two hundred pounds its said |
| Oh, she’ll keep you warm in bed |
| Oh, Buttermilk Boy, you better gain some pounds |
| Before she lets her knick, I say, knickers down |
| Well, a musclely man all gristle and bone |
| So you like to think you know where its about |
| But she’ll suck you in and then she’ll blow you out |
| Yeah, Kate will keep you satisfied |
| Until your dying day |
| Yeah, let me hear some of that strong-arm music |
