Hold Back Mama
Hold back mama take it nice and slow
Y’all watch out I swear this thing gonna blow
Hold back mama don’t move too fast
If it feels this good we’d better make it last
Hold back mama got it on the down low
Gonna turn up the heat you keep it under control
Don’t you fret we got nothing but time
Hold back mama take it right down the line
I gotta tell ya, you need to know
This ain't no schoolboy infatuation
This is the big one this is the bomb
Gotta keep a firm grip on the situation
Hold back mama gotta get it right
Don't wanna lose it you should keep it tight
Hold back mama don't turn it around
Keep a lid on the sucker gotta nail it down
I gotta tell ya, you need to know
This ain't no schoolboy infatuation
This is the big one this is the bomb
Gotta keep a firm grip on the situation
Hold back mama

NUTHIN’ WRONG WITH ME (ANOTHER WHISKEY WOULDN’T FIX)
People been talkin' I ain't naming no names
The rumour is I ain't quite at the top of my game
They say I'm sinking fast going deeper each day
But I never gave a damn about what people might say
My customary lifestyle lately’s hard to maintain
I ain’t consumed a lot of haute cuisine or drunk too much champagne
I ain’t been sleeping on no feather bed but I ain’t gonna bitch
There’s nuthin’ wrong with me another whiskey wouldn’t fix
My fiscal arrangements are need of some reform
My portfolio of stocks and shares is failing to perform
I may have made a few investments which on reflection were unwise
The nights down at the dog track were especially ill-advised
I may have one or two commitments which need to be addressed
Before I tell my public that I’m right back at my best
But even if I always get the brown end of the stick
There’s nuthin’ wrong with me another whiskey wouldn’t fix
I’ve become a bit reclusive I seldom socialize
The society engagements have recently run dry
And old buddies don’t pick up my calls, I guess they’re out of town
Although I’m generally too busy in the bar to fool around
I prefer to be a loner it’s all the rage these days
Especially since my girl and me both went our separate ways
I won’t deny it’s hard sometimes when no-one’s got your six
But there’s nuthin’ wrong with me another whiskey wouldn’t fix

SALLY-ANN HAS LOST THE PLOT
CHORUS
I saw Weasel with a flashlight and shovel
Hauling something heavy up the Greenwood Hollow Lane
Previous experience says Weasel’s in deep trouble
And Sally-Ann has lost the plot again
Sally-Ann has lost the plot again
Last time I saw weasel it was down at Dexter’s tavern
He said Sally-Ann was working out of town for a spell
And he was pleased to introduce me to his new friend Mary-Ellen
And I knew this situation was not destined to end well
Cause Sally-Ann and Weasel they’ve got an understanding
Now and then he’s goes out with the boys and has some fun
But when he does he will not so much as look at other women
And Sally-Ann won’t need to fetch her gun
CHORUS
Anyone who finds they have incurred the wrath of Sally
Is due a world misery ‘cause let’s make one thing clear
Sally’s got a temper, her response to provocation
Is Swift and unambiguous, and brutally severe
CHORUS
There’s an SUV for sale in parking lot at Dexter’s
There’s a young girl who went missing a week or two ago
Weasel don’t get out much on his own since I last saw him
Sally says he’s busy; well I guess that she would know
CHORUS

She Put the Hoodoo on Me

SHE PUT THE HOODOO ON ME
I got the shivers from my head to my feet
Been awake for three days but I still can’t sleep
Can't shake the feeling something's gone very wrong
I think I know what’s going on
She put the hoodoo on me
She put the hoodoo on me
She don’t need no graveyard dirt
Ain’t got no paper and powder to do her work
She don’t need no mojo hand
I hope you understand
She put the hoodoo on me
She put me under her spell
She put the hoodoo on me
Ain't got a hope in hell
She put the hoodoo on me
I can't lie I can't make no pretence
Whatever she's been cooking up I've got no defence
Some kind of Juju that I just can’t fight
She really done me right
She put the hoodoo on me
She put me under her spell
She put the hoodoo on me
Ain't got a hope in hell
She put the hoodoo on me

The Flesh of the Hog

FLESH OF THE HOG
You can keep your fried chicken and your rib-eye steak
Don’t ya gimme no greens that’s a big mistake
Spicy grilled vegetables and crawfish pie
Ain’t the kind of vittles’ gonna catch my eye
I know what it takes to make my taste buds rock
I wanna feast on the flesh of the hog
Prawn stuffed flatfish red beans and rice
You tell me it’s good but it don’t roll my dice
Some people eat salad: I don’t mean to be rude
I was surprised to discover that this counts as food
I know what it takes to make my taste buds rock
I wanna feast on the flesh of the hog
fried chops, tenderloin, what can I say?
slow roast pulled pork blows me away
Barbequed ribs hot chilli dogs
I wanna feast on the flesh of the hog
Crisp fried bacon, ham on the bone
Jerk pork belly I can’t leave it alone
Wild boar, hog roast, toad in the hole
It’s a taste sensation eat it hot or cold
I know what it takes to make my taste buds rock
I wanna feast on the flesh of the hog
fried chops, tenderloin, what can I say?
slow roast pulled pork blows me away
Barbequed ribs hot chilli dogs
I wanna feast on the flesh of the hog
Black pudding, pork rinds boudin, charcute
I’m a hog for the pigmeat, ain’t it the truth
Stuffed Porcetta, gammon and eggs
It don’t have to cost you an arm and a leg
I know what it takes to make my taste buds rock
I wanna feast on the flesh of the hog

WHEN THE BLUES GOT YOUR NUMBER
When the blues got your number you got trouble on the line
When the blues got your number you got trouble on the line
Bad news coming at ya heartache following behind
You don’t wanna take that call but you do it just the same
You can’t hide from the blues when they got you in the frame
When the blues got your number you got trouble on the line
Bad news coming at ya heartache following behind
You can’t change your number you can’t hang up the phone
If the blues are on your case they won’t be leaving you alone
When the blues got your number you got trouble on the line
Bad news coming at ya heartache following behind
When the blues got your number you got trouble on the line
When the blues got your number you got trouble on the line
Bad news coming at ya heartache following behind
