Hooking With A Couple Of Country Hookers

They called it
music, they said
"man write some'em
with a hook",

I said:

wiggle the hook
drop your pants
let momma get it
while you stand

They said:

"man we can't use that"

I said:

bleep the hook,

They said:
"man are you out of your mind"

I said:

shuga shuga sweet
let me kiss your feet
if you leave now baby
you might lose your seat

They said:

"write a story around that"

I said:

it was the first time
and I done wrong
I feel so bad baby
I can't go on

please forgive me
just one more chance
I'll be your slave
even learn to dance

They said:

"finish it, might work"

I couldn't go on
killing words, plus
I was in Nashville to
visit a friend and see
Buddy Guy.
