D G A
Chorus:
D G
Double Wide Blues
A
I got the blues
D
Double wide
Verses-
D
V-neck t-shirt, with a mustard stain
G
Holdin' up a hose, outside in the rain
A
He's been my neighbor since '79
D
'Course he was in prison most of that time
D
Ever since then he just ain’t been right
G
his old lady works days and they fight most nights
A D
Laid off and blown off, pissed off on booze
Double wide blues
Metallica song blastin out from two trailors down
Its them cut of t-shirt numb chuck kids comin around
Tonight they'll get drunk, try to get laid
End up in a fight out behind the arcade
You know one of them little shits broke my window last spring
I told his momma she didn’t do anything
She works two jobs, he runs loose
Double wide blues
Chorus
My buddy Jimmy, now his trailers cool
He got him a deck with one of them blue plastic pools
Workin construction, he builds speck homes
His old lady left him, now he's down there alone
My friend Anita, she loves him, but he dont know
He's so busy chasin my neighbor’s wife, Flo
Soap opera heaven without all the clues
Double wide blues
Chorus
Wild Bill the manager he keeps to himself
The war took his smile like them pills took his health
Too old to run with the Klan anymore
US Flag hangin outside his door
I sit here watchin all this nuthin go on
I don’t get out much now since momma's been gone
Sometimes its nice, havin nuthin to lose
Double wide blues
Chorus
Take me home boys,
I think I’m drunk
