Story Behind The Song

listening to the radio, I came across a lot of disco music and wrote this in reply, told the band on stage "key of A, follow me!" and the crowd went wild

Song Description

anti-disco number writen on the way to a gig

Lyrics

I came home the other night
from being down there
drinkin' at the bar.
Listening to Jerry Jeff Walker
and good old Jerry Lee

I found my wife and her friends
dancin' to some
old funky, Motown disco records
it all sounded like
some hopped up
negro blues to me

chorus:
I said Honey
get the funk
out of here
Take your disco records
and make 'em disappear
Take your jive ass music
and shove it
in your rear
Honey get the funk
out of here.

I said if Merle Haggard heard that record
he'd fill his rhinestone
opry pants all
full of shit

The guy was singin'
three octaves higher
then any white boy
could hope to hit

I said put on
some Walon and Willie
songs about C.B.s
and semi-trucks
now you take
your disco records
and honey
you can kiss my disco duck

chorus:


My band performs this song after the crowds alcohol level has reached the point of aural enhancement. It goes over really, really well.

I would be happy to re-write the lyrics to any level of cleanliness required.
