Lyrics
Charlie's Redneck Nation (catfish and whiskey bar) VERSE: There's a Spanish dancer leaning in the corner and ole snake eyed Joe’s got romance in his head. He's talking up a storm but that fool ain't even warm - she doesn't understand a word he's said. There's a bustle with the bouncer at the front door. Some teenage kid swears that he's thirty-four. We all have to laugh, he's pleading with the staff, cause everybody here's been there before. CHORUS: And my boss says that I'm ready for the big time - if I stick with him I should go far. I don't have time to think, I'm working seven days a week at Charlie's Redneck Nation...catfish and whiskey bar. VERSE: I'm sleeping in a trailer in the backyard, and bus boy at the tables until nine. My band goes on at ten, behind a chicken wire fence, at midnight we’re just happy we're alive. CHROUS: And my boss says that I’m ready for the big time- If I stick with him I should go far I don’t have time to think, I’m working seven days a week at Charlie’s Redneck Nation…catfish and whiskey bar. BRIDGE: Now, Charlie's girlfriend Velma has a shotgun and a blue tattoo of brad pitt on her arm. She’s giving me the eye; if he finds out, I could die I been thinking that its time I'm moving on... CHORUS: And my boss says that I’m ready for the big time- If I stick with him I should go far I don’t have time to think, I’m working seven days a week at Charlie’s Redneck Nation…catfish and whiskey bar
