Damn Skippy
(C) 2002 CJ Hughes

VERSE
I was pumpin' unleaded, at the Dixie Dime
There was a four legged castaway, on the gas island
So I took him to the trailer, feed him some scraps
taught him how to shake hands, even scratched his back

VERSE
Well I took him to the park, on the east side
A pretty avenue poodle, caught his eye
And I'll be danged, if he didn't follow that bitch home
And it's been six months, since Skippy's been gone

CHORUS
That damn Skippy's, done went big city
He must've been ashamed, of this old hillbilly
Used me like a chump, ain't it a pity
That damn Skippy's done went big city

VERSE
I was waterin' the weeds, out on my front lawn
When who should stagger up the gravel, looking like skin and bones
So I took him in the house, got him watered and feed
But as soon as he got well, well that bastard jumped the fence

CHORUS
That damn Skippy's, done went big city
He must've been ashamed, of this old hillbilly
Used me like a chump, ain't it a pity
That damn Skippy's done went big city

VERSE
I was sittin’ in my barcalounger drinkin' a hot beer
Watchin' Mash reruns on the tube with the rabbit ears
There came a knockin' on my front door, a pretty little lady with basket on her arm
she pulled back the cover and said hey, at least half of these butt ugly puppies are yours

CHORUS
That damn Skippy's, done went big city
He must've been ashamed, of this old hillbilly
Used me like a chump, ain't it a pity
That damn Skippy's done went big city

That damn Skippy's, done went big city
