[Verse 1]
DV neck t-shirt with a mustard stain
GRollin' up a hose, outside in the rain
AHe been my neighbor since probably '79
D'Course he was in prison most of that time
DEver since then he just ain't been right
GHis old lady works days, and they fight most nights
ALaid off and blown off, pissed off on booze
DDoublewide blues
[Verse 2]
DMetallica song blasting from three trailers down
GSome cut off t-shirt and numbchuck kids comin' around
ATonight they'll get drunk, try to get laid
DThey'll end up in a fight out behind the arcade
DYou know one of those little shits broke my window last spring
GI told his Mama but she didn't do anything
AShe works two jobs the boy runs loose
DDoublewide blues
[Chorus]
DDoublewide Gblues
I got the Ablues
DoubleDwide
[Verse 3]
DMy buddy Jimmy, his trailer's cool
GHes got him a deck with one of them blue plastic pools
AHe works in construction he builds spec homes
DHis woman left him though so now he's down there alone
DMy friend Anita loves him he don't even know
GSo busy chasing my neighbor's wife Flo
ASoap opera heaven, without all the clues
DDoublewide blues
[Chorus]
DDoublewide Gblues
I got the Ablues
DoubleDwide
[Verse 4]
DWild Bill the manager, he keeps to himself
GThe war took his smile, like those pills took his health
AHe's too old to run around with the Klu Klux Klan anymore
DHe's still got a Confederate flag hanging up outside his door
DI sit here watchin' all this nothin' go on
Gdon't get out much since the Anna Nicole Smith trials come on
ASometimes it's nice havin' nothin' to lose
DDoublewide blues
[Chorus]
DDoublewide Gblues
I got the Ablues
DoubleDwide
DDoublewide Gblues
I got the Ablues
DoubleDwide
