Honky, Please

Rye Coalition


Emmet Ray, guitar great 
Play your swan song serenade 
Mystery man fade away 

Playin' drunk, showin' up late 
Not making it at all 
Gonna set the promoter straight 

My Moma's name was Sassafras 
Gonna kiss my white, lily ass 
I said I'm phat like Mama Cass 

Who's shakin' the juke joint 
Let's roll the tape 
Ain't imitating me on this fuckin' take 
Hattle say something please 
You're writing in chinese 
A star on the silver screen 
I said Honky, please! 

When Django plays 
That four-fingered gypsy 
Makes me want to faint 
Like mama's sing to their babies 

Lets shoot rats 
We'll watch trains 
I get stoned and wake in different states 

Wanna be a fat cat man? 
Gonna hang up the silly hat, man 
How can you love this, when you want some of that? 

She's breaking your heart, you're smashing guitars 
She's breaking your heart, you're smashing guitars 

She said I'm the only white god 
She said I'm the only white god 
Yah 
She's breaking your heart, you're smashing guitars 
She's breaking your heart, you're smashing guitars 

Someone out of my life 
Someone out of my way 
Someone out of my life 
Someone out of my way 

It's okay you can have it your way 
On the sweet and low down 
It's okay you can have it your way 
On the sweet and low down 

The mutes have something to say
