JACKYL LYRICS

1. Dumb Ass Country Boy

I'm just a dumbass country boy
I think people wanna rock but what do I know
I remember the days when men were men
If it was up to me I'd bring 'em back again
And I'd kick your candy asses up around your jaded ears

[Chorus:]
I'm just a dumbass country boy
I think people wanna rock but what do I know
I got friends with names like Slim & Coy
Just a dumbass country boy
I'm just a dumbass country boy

I punch the clock for 40 'cause it's all I know
Remember the days of jammin' drugs and love
And it was cool to say yes to all the above
And I still can't find nothing wrong
With saying yes to smoking mother nature

[Chorus:]
I'm just a dumbass country boy
I think people wanna rock
But what do I know
Got friends with names like Slim & Coy

Now people listen to me
I'm your social conscience
I been gone for a while
You've had to make it on your own
Now people listen to me
You got no social conscience
You gotta get up, get up & get over it
That's right, I just wanna change the world
Change the world's diapers
All those tender ass sons o' bitches
Who are all these goobers who say
What's cool & what's not cool
What's hip & not hip
Call me a one hit wonder
Well I might be a one hit wonder
But then again it might only take me one hit
To knock your teeth down your God damn throat
It's time for me to drive this Impala
You need to be programmed
I'll program your ass
Listen to me M.F.

[Chorus:]
I'm just a dumbass country boy
I think people wanna rock
But what do I know
Got friends with names like Slim & Coy
I'm just a dumbass country boy

I think people wanna rock
But what do I know
Got friends with names like Slim & Coy
It's the simple things that I enjoy
With my friends that are named Slim & Coy
What do I know
What do you know
What does anybody fucking know

2. Locked & Loaded

What you gonna do when the sun don't shine
And the moon don't come up right on time
What you gonna do when the storm won't break
And the whip don't crack
And the earth won't quake
What you gonna do when the knife won't cut
The blood won't flow and ya mouth run dry
What you gonna do when it crumbles in your hand
It's an eye for an eye when your high horse dies

[Chorus:]
Primed and ready
Feelin' nasty, seein' red
Locked & loaded
Locked & loaded
Locked & loaded
Aimin' for your soul
Locked & loaded

What you gonna do when the lightning flash
And ya bridges burn and ya start to crash
And a pill won't take the pain away
But it makes you feel good in a different way
Who ya gonna blame when the man calls time
And the clock runs down and your soul is mine
And how ya gonna pray when ya hands are tied
And you look in my face and you know I lied

[Chorus:]
Primed and ready
Feelin' nasty, seein' red
Locked & loaded
Locked & loaded
Locked & loaded
Aimin' for your soul
Locked & loaded

I'm your danger
Feed me with your fear
I'm your danger
Smell me drawing near

[Chorus:]
Primed and ready
Feelin' nasty, seein' red
Locked & loaded
Locked & loaded
Locked & loaded
Aimin' for your soul
Locked & loaded

3. Open Up

I'm sitting stoned all alone in a room full of friends
'Cause it lifts the world off me
Black light shining on Jimmy's face
It'll never let him be free
Oh, oh, ashes fall from the spleefs I roll
Oh, oh, burning holes in my crushed velvet soul
Oh, all I ever wanted, all I ever wanted
Is to open up and let the outside in
Open up and let it begin
Open up and let it come together
Open up and let it in
A Dodge Dart pull through the drive-through
Of the hell hole I'm standing in
Welcome to the crown of thorns, Chris Kringel
Never been my friend
Oh, oh, wishes fall from my tongue like drool
Oh, oh, the ground floor of life is cruel
Oh, oh, all I ever wanted, all I ever wanted
Come together
I see it now, I'm gonna get it
I see it, I'm gonna let it, let it, let it, let it begin
Let it begin, let it begin
Open up, open up
Open up and let the outside in
Open up and let it begin
Open up and let it come together
Open up and let it in
Open up and let the oustside in
Open up and let it begin
Open up and let it come together
Open up and let it in
Oh yeah

4. Misery Loves Company

5. Let's Don't Go There

There's a place inside my soul
There's a place that's not quite whole
And it seems it's here to stay
It grows a little everyday
And it's getting bigger
It's getting bigger
It's getting bigger

[Chorus:]
But let's don't go there
Let's don't go, you can't compete
Let's don't go, you lose your bet
Let's don't go, it makes you wet
And I know nobody wants to know from rain

There's a place inside my head
There's a place I go instead
And I feel the need to be
There anyway, the feeling
Grows everyday and it's getting bigger
It's getting bigger
It's getting bigger

[Chorus:]
But let's don't go there
Let's don't go, you can't compete
Let's don't go, you lose your bet
Let's don't go, it makes you wet
And I know nobody wants to know from rain

6. Cut The Crap

I love the sound of silence
The beautiful sound of silence
'Cause it gives me something else to break
I'm loud God damn it
You shut the door, I slam it
A load of dynamite powder
It's loud God damn it, I'm louder
Cut it on, so I can hear it
Cut it up, 'cause I can't feel it
Cut it out, before I snap
Cut the crap
Cut the crap
Cut the crap
Cut the crap
Cut it on, so I can hear it
Cut it up, 'cause I can't feel it
Cut in out, before I snap
Cut it on, so I can hear it
Cut it up, 'cause I can't feel it
Cut it out, before I snap
Cut the crap
Cut it on, let's get it on
Cut it up, let's get it up
Cut it out, I'll kick it out
Cut the crap
Cut the crap
Cut the crap

7. Twice As Ugly

When you vultures finish picking skin off my face
Replace your hand that's on my back
Stab your verdict in its place
I can't fight the feeling
Gotta say what's on my mind
Why have you forsaken me, forsaken me, forsaken me
Don't forget just where you come from
Where you used to be
It all comes around
It all comes around
It all comes around

[Chorus:]
Here I am, back again
Bigger than life
To wear you thin
Twice as ugly, twice as loud
Twice as cocky, twice as proud
Here I am, back again
Bigger than life
Just watch me grin
Twice as ugly, twice as ugly
I'm back again

I offer no apologies
For things that I have done
I'll fuck and drink and smoke and cuss
Damned to have my fun
You can't fight the feeling
Gotta say what's on your mind
Why have you awakened me, awakened me, awakened me
I know you got it in you
To fuck and drink and smoke and cuss
Don't you hate it
You're just like us
Yeah, you're just like us

[Chorus:]
Here I am, back again
Bigger than life
To wear you thin
Twice as ugly, twice as loud
Twice as cocky, twice as proud
Here I am, back again
Bigger than life
Just watch me grin
Twice as ugly, twice as ugly
I'm back again

Here I am, back again
Bigger than life
To wear you thin
Twice as ugly, twice as loud
Twice as cocky, twice as proud
Here I am, back again
Bigger than life
Just watch me grin
Twice as ugly, twice as ugly
I'm back again

8. God Strike Me Dead

As I sit here grinning like a mule eating briars
It occurs to me that I lost something that was a part of me
And it fills this empty house with a feeling
A feeling of even greater emptiness

[Chorus:]
God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see
My soul come together again
My lifeline's stretched and now it's thin
Please God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see
My soul come together again

And it's getting purt' near the point
Of feeling pretty numb as I start to think
Of all the things that I wish
That I could change and then some
And the numbness turns into pain
And underneath there shows a stain
I try me best to try to hide the things
That eat me up inside

[Chorus:]
God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see
My soul come together again
My lifeline's stretched and now it's thin
Please God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see
My soul come together again

[Bridge:]
And I know more every day
Just exactly how it came to be this way
One more chance I'd steal it
One chance to do it again, again

[Chorus:]
God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see
My soul come together again
My lifeline's stretched and now it's thin
Please God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see
My soul come together again
God strike me dead, God strike me dead
God strike me dead

9. Thanks For The Grammy

I'm never speechless
Know what I want to say
About what it took for me to get here
Where I am today
I'm not ashamed to say

[Chorus:]
Thanks for the Grammy
Who'd a thought a country boy like me
I'll cherish it forever
Garnish with tar and feather
You'll see what it means to me

I wanna thank big daddy know-it-all
Looks like he done me right
Got me records on the shelf
In the Wal-Mart, you know
They're open all night
They sell my records and my guns
I think that's out of sight

[Chorus:]
Thanks for the Grammy
Who'd a thought a country boy like me
I'll cherish it forever
Garnish with tar and feather
You'll see what it means to me

If I'm dreaming just let me be
Until I see the hypocrite faces
As they congratulate me
I don't hold a grudge
They know not what they do
They just chase the trends
Set by me and you
So I may not have won a thing
But I got peace of mind
And I'll just sing my songs
To the people who wanna
Have a good time
Have a gram on me one time

[Chorus:]
Thanks for the Grammy
Who'd a thought a country boy like me
I'll cherish it forever
Garnish with tar and feather
You'll see what it means to me

10. Speak Of The Devil

As the devil beats his wife tonight
All hell is breaking loose
Across a blackened sky
And it makes me wonder what she done
It makes me wonder why
Did she forget to make his bed?
Did she burn his dinner bread (why)?
Did she mix his drink too strong?
What did she do so God damn wrong (why)?

[Chorus:]
Speak of the devil, hey mister devil speak to me
Speak of the devil, hey mister devil speak to me
Speak of the devil, hey mister devil speak to me

Out of the frying pan into the fire
Out of me this devil jumps again
As the little one looks on to see his daddy
Growing horns here in this devil's den
Thunder rolls across the sky
Lightning strikes then goodbye (again)

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
I never meant to be the bearer of bad news
Out of the mouths of babes comes the truth I lose
Speak of the devil, look what I have done
Look what I have done [x3]
