When I was a young boy, I'd eat catfish every day. I'd eat catfish every day. I'd just throw down my rod, I didn't need no bait. I'm Rolling down the highway I'm heading to your town. I'm heading to your town. Let's do the catfish boogie Everybody shake on down When I was a young man, Nobody knew my name Nobody knew my name Now the Catfish boogie, is my claim to fame.

I Got Jim Beam In My Blood Stream And I'm ready to play you the blues. When I ain't misbehaving, Well you know It's what I'm craving. because I'm just that king of guy. They say that times are changing, But the good times are still ringing And for me rock n roll will never die. I believe in freedom And take certain liberties I like to drink and smoke and sometimes I get high. My friends all call me Sammy Even though that's not my name And me I'm still just trying to figure out why. Some people drink their vodka Others like scotch or beer But me I'm just a bourbon kind of guy. If you have whiskey from Kentucky Then boy well ain't you lucky I'm gonna drink this doggone whiskey till I die.

Hey Hey Hey 03:23
If your feeling ok If you want to fly high If your sky is grey And the sun won't shine Say hey hey hey O me O my If its time to pay But you ain't got a dime If your baby made a play But it's on another guy Say hey hey hey O me O my If your happy all day Or if you want to cry If you bought that booze today And now the bottle is dry Say hey hey hey O me O my

Do You 03:57
I wanna do u baby, Yeah it's you I wanna do. I wanna do all the things, Yo' mama told you not to do..!! I want to bite your ear, Nibble for a little while. I want to kiss you neck, Feel your cheeks form into a smile. I want to slowly start to unbutton, Reveal what's under your blouse. I can feel the fire start burning, Yeah we're burning down the house. Yeah I wanna do you baby Yeah it's you I wanna do. I want do all the things Yo' mama told you not to do..!! I want to get a little tighter, Feel your heat up nice and close. Im like a junky for you baby, And I need my lethal dose. As I start to feel you woman, And I feel like I'm about to explode.. All our engines are burning, As we begin to Overload.

Don't smoke, don't lie Don't drink, bourbon or rye Don't walk, don't run Don't ever have any fun. When I was growing up, they put the fear of God in me... But now I think for myself, and I've been set free. Don't feel, don't cry Don't let life pass you by. Don't scream, don't shout You better listen or get the hell out. When I was growing up, they put the fear of God in me... But now I think for myself, and I've been set free. Dont swear, Don't talk back, The best defense , is to attack. Don't steal, avoid strife Don't covet thy neighbors wife When I was growing up, they put the fear of God in me... But now I think for myself, and I've been set free.

My Song 04:56
From one town to another The song rolls on By car van train and plane It travels into the beyond A song about freedom A song about lost love As long as it keeps rolling The song grows strong Just looking out the window And the booze keeps flowing With a foolish smile and a wry grin I sigh like a child, as I take it all in It comes out in my song It's been there all along The burning fire of where I belong The true meaning of this song

Everybody feel the passion Everybody feel the heat Everybody cum together Everybody move your feet Yeah. Before there was rock You know there was roll Before There was blues You know there was soul It all started from a sexy sexy groove It makes you want to explode It makes you want to move -- Chorus -- So ppl come together now Feel the heat It's burning down your house It's tearing up the street Before there were guitars We used to just beat the drum The groove was just killer And the we added some strings and brass for brightness And bass for low end to Now it's a musical party It's a rock n roll zoo -- Chorus -- Before there was sex There was only love But that all ended one day With a mighty decree from above Theres some story about a woman and a snake And since that happened , pussy's like birthday cake -- Chorus --

Outta Here 05:48
Over Black waters the ship did sail On her bow stood a man encased in male. He hid himself in shades of grey They are the predator and he is the prey I've got to try and find a way outta here The end is so close it's drawing near The mystery girl she sits in the park She mans her post from morning till dark She's been sitting there for a long while Just hoping somebody will crack her a smile I've got to try and find a way outta here The end is so close it's drawing near I'm so fucked up Don't know what's up Better shut up Don't give me up ( or silent ) Somebody save me...... In the last row sits a man breath all reeking of gin And every stop he lights up a grin Where does he come from and where does he go That's something brother you don't want to know I've got to try and find a way outta here The end is so close it's drawing near I'm so fucked up Don't know what's up Better shut up Don't give me up ( or silent ) Somebody save me.....

Yes, you call me the rocker, I can really rock you all night long. Yes, you call me the rocker, I can rock you all night long. I can let you down easy, when I think your money's gone. I can rock you easy, don't want you to have a turn. I can rock you easy, don't want you to have a turn. I just let you down easy, like jelly on a plate. Some raggin' and shakin', don't mean a thing to me. Some raggin' and shakin', don't mean a thing to me. I'm a hip shakin' daddy, I can shake like a willow tree. Call me the rocker, I can really rock a while, They call me the rocker, I can really rock a while, With a real gone mama, don't let me take your style. I can rock it easy, don't wanna take your style, I can rock it easy, don't wanna take your style, I can let you down easy, like jelly on a plate. Yeh, they call me the rocker, I can rock you all night long. Yes, they call me the rocker, I can rock you all night long. I can let you down easy, when I think your money gone.

Outside Help 08:00
All of your affection is gone baby And your love is growing cold I've said all of your affection is gone baby and your love is growing cold Hey, I've got a new story to tell you this evening, baby One that ain't never been told I went to work the other day But I thought that I would double back And that car I saw sitting in front of my door Looked like a brand new, a brand new Cadillac, yeah! I ain't got none now baby I think you've been cheating on me I believe to my soul baby, that you've given me some outside help That I don't think I really need The iceman came by this morning And you know he didn't leave no ice The postman came by later baby And he didn't even ring twice I think you've been cheating on me I think you're running out on me I believe to my soul baby, that you've given me some outside help That I don't think I really need Now, I want you to tell the iceman The next time he'd better leave some ice And I want you to tell the postman He'd better ring more than twice And when I come home from work in the morning Better still be some groceries on the shelf. I want to tell that slick insurance man That he'd better write some insurance on his self. Yes, I think you've been cheating on me I think you're running out on me I believe to my soul baby, that you've given me some help, some help Some help, I don't really need
