about

Every word in this song is true.... a musical document of one of the rides I got while hitchhiking in the American south.... hope you enjoy!

lyrics

Before You Get Into My Car

a long, long time ago
I hitchhiked through the south
got picked up by all kinds of folks
heard some strange things come out of their mouth

but a man in a Ford pickup truck
really took the cake
he told me his sexual history
as he drove down the interstate

he said, "now I just want to tell you you one thing son
before you get into my car
I aint queer boy but I sure is queer for the womens"

before he pulled off the road
he looked me up and down
and said "I'm really kind of an old fashioned guy
though I'm really not that old!"

and I just got to tell you one thing son
while I'm giving you this ride
I ain't queer boy but I sure is queer for the womens

my grandfather was a Cherokee and
I got magic in my hands
and my plumbing works perfect son
I got power in these glands

the womens got their panites comin' off
when they hear I've arrived in town
I aint queer boy boy
but I sure is queer for the womens
I aint queer boy boy
but I sure is queer for the womens
