Mississippi Gary - Smokin' on the Night Train

[yuothineyesasian]

Night train is also slang for 18% wine-liquor.

[goldust8]

this song is genuinely catchy :)

[allabastormaroe]

if you can't cook an egg without a frying pan, what about a skillet or what campers do with the sidewalks and radiators?

[ALT980]

This skit alone made me want to play guitar.

[jerzeyrunnerflash]

This was my favorite skit from that show, ever! I remember it from when I was a kid. I used to sing this at school!

[kwakerjak]

Is he using blackface, or is that just the lighting?

[AvEryBadApPLe]

@kwakerjak blackface

[theMAG101]

The look Mark shoots at the camera at 1:37 kills me every time...like he just dropped the fattest knowledge bomb you ever saw lol.

[BlueberryFagweed]

anybody know the cord progression?

[wolfmanslick]

its the blues dude, E - A - B.

[BlueberryFagweed]

yeah, I figured that out right after I posted that. I guess I was just being impatient

[mattsturbation]

it's basically E and A then bar chords 7 & 5 then back to E of course...

[murielsartre]

N'vuhminedat.

[pfmo5678ramone]

this show is still way ahead of its time!

[tah83236]

Damn now im going to singing this song at work without realizing it cause its so catchy

[murielsartre]

And if you know what a "jelly roll" is in the slang of the blues, you will REALLY laugh. I don't doubt that Mark knows what it means!

Look it up in the Wiktionary.

[jerzeyrunnerflash]

@murielsartre LMFAO I just looked it up! You're right it is funnier. and it's funnier considering that "God told him to sing it" LOL

[VhakulaKhaulepi]

@murielsartre Actually, I find it less funny, since "jelly roll" seemed rather random and harmless. Now I can't imagine singing this song for fun.

[joeloud1]

All my chil'ren on the planet Oif.

[newtokyoterror]

[BernietheWombat]

I didn't remember this until I saw the clip. Totally classy.

[MetallicBill]

[jvp9779]

[MetallicBill]

[Tai7978]

[jezx21]

[MetallicBill]

Remember the clip that comes before it? "IT's a Fact", clean your ears for several hours each day...it's a fact", a humorous PSA

[possum2u]
