Umphrey's McGee

Bad Poker Lyrics

Pissing in a truck stop in mobile, alabama

Tape of molly hatchett in the back of my pants

I'm almost out of money so I call my little honey

Saying wire me two-hundy, i'm hittin' the boats



My AMC Gremlin circa '74

Rusted out door, my dog on the floor

Feelin' kind of lucky with the (?) blues

Had a week of the flu and now it's time for the house to lose



Round here they don't use them cellular phones

'cause everybody's livin' like it's 1971

A night on the town is your only salvation

Heaven is a diner full of burgers, fries and cokes



Stomach's full of shit and now it's time for a beer

Hotwire the car so we can get down to them boats

The louisiana purchase was a hell of a deal

So gimme that pair of kings and the queen of hearts



Rum is a stupid liquid to drink,

At ten in the morning you don't know who you are

Honkytonks and bars, smokin' steel gituars

Got a ragin' headache at ten in the morning



To throw some cold water on the top of your skull

You can't remember where those two hundred bills have gone

That hand of poker all just does me all wrong

I'll tell my kids got no food to bring home
