CD: My Boy Asked Me...

My boy once asked me, before he went away.

'What can I do sir, to be like you one day?'

It's grit, and spit and sand, I said.

A love for this land until you're dead.

And a good-livin' woman to lead y'all astray.

Maintenant, pourquoi ne me demanderiez-vous pas ce qui s'est passé vingt ans plus tard ?

Well, the day my Betty left me?

Well I was a sight to see!

I'd had a disagreement with a guy from Albuquerque.

I took a pool cue to my nose...

...that bloodied all my clothes.

So now I need another, to do my damn laundry.
