That country song you're thinking of was from the old TV show "Hee Haw".
Here's one from "Hee Haw" that was so bad, it's good.
Well where are you tonight
Why did you leave me here all alone?
I searched the world over and I thought I found true love
You met another and pfffffttthhh you were gone!
I haven't heard that one in years!!!
I hated this song at 13 and I still think it's one of the silliest songs ever written. Captain and Tennille had a hit with it.
It's amazing to think that people actually paid money for this record.
Muskrat Love
Muskrat, muskrat candlelight
doin' the town and doin' it right
in the evenin', it's pretty pleasin'
Muskrat Susie, Muskrat Sam
Do the jitterbug
Out in the muskrat land
And they shimmy
And Sammy's so skinny
And they whirled and they twirled and they tangoed
Singin' and jinglin' the jango
Floatin' like the heavens above
It looks like muskrat love
Nibblin' on bacon, chewin' on cheese
Sammy says to Susie
Honey, would you please be my missus?
And she says yes with her kisses
And now he's ticklin' her fancy
Rubbin' her ties
muzzle to muzzle now
anything goes
as they wiggle
and Sue starts to giggle
And they whirled and they twirled and they tangoed
Singin' and jinglin' the jango
Floatin' like the heavens above
It looks like muskrat love
Does anybody remember "Rappin' Rodney" by Rodney Dangerfield?
I tell ya I'm alright now
But last week I was in rough shape
But I don't get a break with nuthin'
I played hide and seek when I was three (no respect, no respect)
Why they couldn't even look for me (no respect, no respect)
I was an ugly kid I never had fun (no respect, no respect)
They put me through a dog showand I won! (no respect, no respect)
When I was born I brought no joy (no respect, no respect)
My old man said he wanted a boy (no respect, no respect)
I was an ugly kid always alone (no respect, no respect)
Halloween I had to trick or treat over the phone (no respect, no respect)
Friends don't call
My phone don't ring
I don't get a break with anything!
(whatsamatta rodney?)
Ah death, where is my sting?!
CHORUS:
It's just Rappin' Rodney
Ain't that your type
No, no
Rappin' Rodney
Get out of sight
It's just
Rappin' Rodney
Make no mistake
Or old
Rappin' Rodney
Can't get a break!
I'm getting old it's hard to face (no respect, no respect)
Well during sex I lose my place (no respect, no respect)
Steak and sex my favorite pair (no respect, no respect)
I have 'em both the same way...very rare (no respect, no respect)
I know I'm old I could go any minute (no respect, no respect)
I got a kidney shaped pool with a stone in it (no respect, no respect)
Doctor Vinnie Boombah that's another one (no respect, no respect)
I said I wanted to stop aging he gave me a gun (no respect, no respect)
I told him I got water on the knee
He gave me a sponge and raised his fee
(whatsamatter rodney?)
Ahhhh, It ain't easy bein' me
(CHORUS)
Ah, give me a break
Play somethin' from the forties
Now what kind of music is this?
And how 'bout stardust?
Hey what are you doin'?
That's not stardust!
Listen to this will ya?!
I mean where are the flutes?
What a band...
Hey, don't quit your day jobs!
Look at this!
The drummer carries the melody
Hey tell the bass player
I like his instrument
Hey boys, keep it goin'
Lay it on me
I'm in the groove!
Nothin' goes right I just can't fight it (no respect, no respect)
Well Eastern Airlines thanked me for flying United (no respect, no respect)
I got some money what did I do? (no respect, no respect)
I bought some quicksand the deal fell through (no respect, no respect)
My car broke down I called Triple A (no respect, no respect)
They left the car and towed me away (no respect, no respect)
I can't take it no more I'm getting too old (no respect, no respect)

PATCHES Clarence CarterSPOKEN: I was born and raised down in AlabamaOn a farm way back up in the woodsI was so ragged the folks used call me patchesPapa used to teas me about itBut deep down insideHe was hurt because he done all he could do
SUNG:
My papa was a great old manI can see him with a shovel in his hand diggingEducation he never hadBut he did wonders when the time got badA little money from the crops he raisedHelped pay the bills we madeFor months he'd been sick and down in the dumpsWhen he tried to get up life would kick him back downOne day papa called me to his dyin? bedPut his hands on my shoulders And in tears he saidPatches, I'm depending on you sonTo pull the family through My son, it's all left up to youSPOKEN: Two days later papa passed awayI became a man that daySo I told mama I was gonna quit schoolBut she said that was daddy?s strictest rule
SUNG:So every morning before I went to schoolI fed the chickens and I chopped wood tooSometimes I felt that I couldn't go onI wanted to leave and run away from homeBut I would remember what my daddy saidWith tears in his eyes on his dyin bedHe said, "Patches, I'm depending on you sonTo pull the family through. My son its all left up to youSPOKEN: Then one day a strong rain cameAnd washed all the crops awayAnd at the age of thirteen I thought I was carryingThe weight of the whole world on my shouldersAnd you know, mama knew what I was going through, Cause
SUNG:
Everyday I had to work the fieldsCause that's the only way we got our mealsYou see, I was the oldest of a familyAnd everybody else depended on meEvery night I heard my mama pray Lord, give him the strength to face another dayThough years have passed and all the kids have grownThe Angels took mama to a brand new homeBut, No people,I never quitMy daddy's voice still rings through the fields Sayin, "Patches, I'm depending on you sonTo pull the family through My son, it's all left up to youPatches, I'm depending on you son FADE
Followed by the unforgettable:
SWINGIN'
John Anderson
There's a little girl in our neighborhood
Her name is Charlotte Johnson and she's really looking good
I had to go and see her so I called her on the phone
I walked over to her house, and this was going on:
Her brother was on the sofa eating chocolate pie
Her mama was in the kitchen cutting chicken up to fry
Her daddy was in the backyard rolling up a garden hose
I was on the porch with Charlotte feeling love down to my toes
And we were swingin'
Yeah we were swingin'
Little Charlotte she's as pretty as the angels when they sing
I can't believe it started on her front porch in the swing
Just a swingin'
Now Charlotte is a darling she's the apple of my eye
When I'm on the swing with her it makes me almost high
Now Charlotte is my lover and she has been since the spring
I just can't believe it started on her front porch in the swing
Just a swingin'

| sorry but Meat loaf is one of the greatest singers alive. His music is rock opera, possibly u do not have a liking for it, but he is very good and got a grammy in 93 for "i'd do anythign for love " and his album "bat out of Hell" is one of the all time top selling albums. i have met him and have to say-he is a great guy and not star struck, and very gifted. | |
Oh gawd, where do I start?? There are so many AWFUL songs out there...I'd start with most of the top 40 stuff on the radio. I hate all of Dave Matthews Band music..and that song that goes, "I'm more than a bird, I'm more than a plane...more than some pretty face beside the train," I swear I want to shoot some heroin every time I hear that crap.

It wasn't a personal attack on Meat Loaf, I just think his music is shit. I love watching interviews with Jann Arden because I think she has a kickass personality, but I'd never buy her music.
Everytime I hear "Paradise by the Dashboard Light", I want to puke.
Another band I dislike, but everyone seems to adore at the moment is Evavescense (sp). I do not see the talent.
"Bianca," by Cole Porter, mercifully left out of the movie version of "Kiss Me, Kate" - which is the only musical I actually like. I mean! He rhymes "Bi-ank-uh" with "Poppa spank-a"! And the tune stinks, too.
