Gotta Get Rid of This Band

Gotta Get Rid of This Band - Bobby Bare

Oh I gotta get rid of this band

They're rocking too hard for a country music man

I preach them and I teach them

But they don't understand

I tell you folks I gotta get rid of this band

Now that fella there on lead guitar he's a natural dude

He never takes showers and just eats natural food

And if you shared a room with him

Then friends I think you'd understand

Just why I gotta get rid of this band

Here is natural boy

Now my friend there on piano

He been known to do some dope

There's nothing he won't sniff or swallow or smoke

And sometimes he's just too damn stoned

To help me reach the stand

Oh I gotta get rid of this band

Those boys on bass and drums you know

They're country through and through

But they wanna wear makeup

Like them rock stars do

But they smile at each other

And sometimes they hold hands

Too long on the road I gotta get rid of this band

We got a honey talking pretty boy

There on that steel guitar

And the girls don't realize that I'm the star

And when anybody interferes with my romantic plans

They're gone I gotta get rid of this band

Eh I gotta get rid of this band

They're rocking too hard for a country music man

I preach them and I teach them

But they don't understand

That's why I gotta get rid of this band

Yo fire
