Bubba

Ah bubba, lives out in the middle of Texas
Bubba he's a soldier, in the battle, of the sexes
And he works like a dog for the big bossman
At the end of the month there's no money in his hand
He's heard of the recession but no one has explained

Bubba, he's so damned proud, of this country
Bubba, he believes that everybody should be
But he can't help but wonder
Why the government's in pain
Why we didn't finish off, Saddam Hussein
His positive attitude, sometimes grows so blue
Ah bubba, ain't he just like me and you

Bubba, he watches some, Monday night football
Bubba, he's amazed that his kid's growin' so tall
And he always says, the wrong things to his wife
They tried splittin' up, but it ain't no life
So they fight back the tears
With some laughs, and a week at the beach
Ah bubba, ain't he just like you and me

Oh, see him smiling', through the hard times
He refuses to let all his b-s, get him down
Bubba, sits drinkin' a beer, at the corner bar
Bubba, he's contemplatin' buyin', a foreign car

And there's a brunette smiling'
But he knows she's a tease
Should he learn to speak spanish, or a little japanese
And are there gonna be good old boys
In the twenty-first century

Ah bubba, just like you and me
Bubba, ain't he just like you and me
