Trouble In The Country

(アルバム： Hair In My Eyes Like A Highland Steer - 2005)

There were signs of a struggle at the rodeo grounds
There was a body in the bleachers not making no sounds
Blood in the grandstand, blood on the seats
The county cops called in the mounted police

There's trouble in the country, trouble country style
Don't blink twice or you'll miss it by a country mile
Trouble in the country, trouble country style

We took a bulldogger's money from him playing stook
But he's an Oklahoma thug and he didn't want it took
Pistol came out so we played some more
Lost most of it back to him, headed for the door

There's trouble in the country, trouble country style
Don't think twice or you'll miss it by a country mile
Trouble in the country, trouble country style

Tried to sell my cows but the border got closed
So we'll tighten up the belt and ride it out I s'pose
Feeding calved out heifers and their younguns too
Spending money on hay to feed beef I can't use

Larry lost a thumb when he dallied too quick
At the jackpot roping down on boundary crick
When we was all kids that's the first thing we learned
Is that the reata bites and the saddle horn burns
So it's thumbs up, brother, when you take your turns
'Cause when the money gets big people get hurt

Trouble in the country, trouble country style
Don't blink twice or you'll miss it by a country mile
It's subtle, but there's trouble in the country, trouble country style
