Lyrics

Well, there used to be this old guy named Woody
Woody was an Indian, came from a town
In Oklahoma called Bowlegs (Yeah, boy)
And he used to have this saying
He used to say when things got real lousy - I mean real lousy
All you had to do was just put out the fire, and call in the dogs
And head it on back to Bowlegs
And that's what this tune's about, headin' on back
Sometimes things don't work out, but that's how life is, son
All them little miseries can keep you on the run
Some morning you may wake up with your face down in the eggs
So just put out the fire, call in the dogs
And head it on back to Bowlegs
Put out the fire, call in the dogs
And head it on back to Bowlegs
Well, lots of people in this world are trying to make a buck
Some folks ride in limousines, while
Others drive them big ol' Peterbilt trucks
Just remember that old saying 'bout the round holes in square pegs
And just put out the fire, call in the dogs
And head it on back to Bowlegs
Put out the fire, call in the dogs
Head it on back to Bowlegs
There's no use trying to be what you're not
You run on a treadmill and you'll get tired a lot
So why not take some advice from me
Even though I ain't no McCartney
Well, the moral of this story escapes me at this time
I've been too busy sitting here just trying to make it rhyme
But I'm a crazy drunken fool and when I finish off this keg
I'm gonna piss on the fire, call in the dogs
And head it on back to Bowlegs
Piss on the fire, call in the dogs
Head it on back to Bowlegs
I'll just piss on the fire, call in the dogs
Head it on back to Bowlegs
Well, right now we're gonna do a little heading on back ourselves
Head on down to the local watering hole
And take advantage of that happy hour
Yeah, well, can we go to the Jerome's?
Let's go to the Jerome's, man
Alright
They got a beer down there with my name on it
They got a beer called Jeff?
I like that beer
You like that beer? Yeah, let's go get one
I could, I'm awful dry
Alright, yeah
