Here I Go (The Redneck Romp)

from Ben Cook​-​Feltz And You by Ben Cook-Feltz

lyrics

I grew my beard back for you, dammit
I wore the shirts that I thought you would like
I tried to make a big impression
So you would let me take you home at night

I wrote a book of new credentials
I shone 'em bright so I thought you could see
I never thought you'd find another man in time
And then you found somebody just like me

Here I go. . .

I bet you think he's really funny
I bet you think he's the cream of the crop
Some kind of hard luck Cassanova
You drew your cards, and you came out on top

But I have seen this guy in action
And I can tell you, he ain't nothin much
I know the way he plays, believe me when I say
It's nice to look, but you better not touch

Here I go. . .

Whoah whoah, it's gonna hit you hard babe
Whoah whoah, you're gonna wind up in the ditch
Whoah whoah, so don't come crying to me babe
You got your wish
So keep me out of this, bitch

Well, well, I grew my beard back for you, dammit
I figure at the very least, you'd admit
There coulda been something between us
Instead of all this platonic friend shit

But I suppose it doesn't matter
I guess it's never supposed to work out
So just go back to your street corner
I'll drop a nickel when I hear you shout

Here I go. . .
