Never Gonna Change

Let this be a lesson to you, girl

Don't come around where you know you don't belong

They're riding on the avenue, they're prob'ly coming after you

And they all look mean and strong

Mean and strong like liquor

Mean and strong like fear

Strong like the people from South Alabama

And mean like the people from here

Take it from me

We ain't never gonna change

Daddy used to empty out his shotgun shells

And fill 'em full of black-eyed peas

He'd aim real low, and he'd tear out your ankles

And rip right through your knees

There ain't much traffic on the highway

There ain't much traffic on the lake

'Cause the ATF and the ABI

Got everything they could take

Take it from me

They didn't take it from me

Take it from me

We ain't never gonna change

We ain't doin' nothin' wrong

We ain't never gonna change

So shut your mouth and play along

Well, I thought about going in the army

I thought about going overseas

I wouldn't have trouble with a piss test

Only problem is my bad left knee

My brother got picked up at Parker's

Got him a ride in a new Crown Vic

They said that he was movin' on a federal level

But they couldn't really make it stick

Take it from me

We ain't never gonna change

We ain't doin' nothin' wrong

We ain't never gonna change

So shut your mouth and play along

You can throw me in the Colbert County jailhouse

You can throw me off the Wilson Dam

But there ain't much difference in the man I wanna be

And the man that I really am

We ain't never gonna change

We ain't doin' nothin' wrong

We ain't never gonna change

So shut your mouth and play along

We ain't never gonna change

We ain't never gonna change

We ain't never gonna change

We ain't never gonna change
