Lyrics Heartaches and Grease - Ray Wylie Hubbard

Heartaches and Grease

Young pups they ask me what makes my kind
Shameless women and pork rind
Desirable lips keep telling me lies
Biscuits and bacon and fried pies
And it’s heartaches and grease, that’s what it takes
Heartaches and grease, my mistakes
Heartaches and grease oh the disgrace
Heartaches and grease boys, it’s what it takes
Young pups they ask me
Why I do what I do
Knowing trouble wears high heel shoes
I’m tempted and tried by a fine pair of legs
I’m likewise enticed over over-easy eggs
Young pups can see that my life’s in shreds
They walk away just shaking their heads
Theirs no sadder case of desire and anguish
For I’m done in by women, hushpuppies and catfish
Oh it’s heartaches and grease boys, that’s what it takes
Heartaches and grease, my mistakes
Heartaches and grease, oh the disgrace
Heartaches and grease boys, that’s what it takes
Heartaches and grease boys, is all it takes
Heartaches and grease, my mistakes
Heartaches and grease boys, oh the disgrace
Heartaches and grease, is all it takes
