Since you been gone

I been having withdrawals

You were such a habit to call

I ain't myself at all had to tell myself naw

She’s better with some fella with a regular job

I didn’t wanna get her involved

By dinner Mr. Benjamin was sitting in awe

Hopped into my car; drove far

Far’s too close and I remember

My memories no sharp

Butter knife, what a life, anyway

I’m building y’all a clock, stop

What am I Hemingway?

She had the kind of body

That would probably intimidate

Any of ‘em that were un-southern

Not me cousin

If models are made for modeling

Thick girls are made for cuddlin’

Am A7

Knock knock knock knock on wood

Well frankly when that ocean so muphucking good

Make her swab the muphucking wood

Make her walk the muphucking plank

Make her rob a muphucking bank

With no mask on and a rusty revolver
