Pearl Snaps

• G

Chorus: 
G 
Cheap bourbon whiskey and pearl snap shirts 
C               --walkdown-- G 
Are two things that stay the same 
                                       C 
So when the world starts spinnin' and your head hurts 
 
There's cheap bourbon whiskey and pearl snap shirts 
 
C 
Well the shade tree mechanic is a dinosaur 
G 
You can't cuss you can't smoke or spit on the floor 
C 
And don't hit on a woman 'cause she might sue 
D 
You can't buy beer in this state past two 
 
But that (Chorus) 
 
Now Buddha is legal but Jesus ain't 
The saints are all sinners and the sinners are saints 
It's not how you play it's the final score 
They don't show M*A*S*H on the tube any more 
 
But that (Chorus) 
 
Now lovers usually leave at the drop of a ring 
And daddy doesn't smile when a mockingbird sings 
The kids are in school but they're all packin' guns 
The losers live forever and the good die young 
 
But that (Chorus) 
 
Well the stars are all fallin' out of the sky 
The doors are all locked and the bottle is dry 
So pass me a chew and I'll sing you a song 
If there's a problem with that we can get it on 
 
'Cause that (Chorus) 
 
C 
Cheap bourbon whiskey and pearl snap shirts 
 
This guy is another one of the long line of Red Dirt musicians out of  
Stillwater, Oklahoma, joining the likes of The Great Divide, Bob Childers,  
and Cross Canadian Ragweed.  There is a lot of Robert Earl Keen/Americana  
influence to his music.  If you ever get a chance to see him, it would be  
well worth the trip.
