The Jeff Warren Johnston Band performs their classic-sounding, country rock songs at popular music venues in Austin, Texas. The mission of the JWJ Band is to please listeners longing for that "real" country music sound in the vein of traditional artists such as Hank Williams, Willie Nelson, David Allan Coe, Merle Haggard, George Jones, and Johnny Cash, while simultaneously paving new country roads. This particular song is inspired by the infectious rock rhythms of the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and the Flying Burrito Brothers. It serves as a wonderful excuse for Jeff to swing his Elvis hips and swagger like Mick Jagger. The lyrics were inspired by an obnoxious Youtube comment about another song - proving that hecklers definitely have a productive place in the world.
The JWJ Band highly recommends: The Marshall Ford Swing Band, the Atomic Duo, the Love Leighs, Roky Erickson, 13th Floor Elevators, Jack Wilson, Raina Rose, Terri Hendrix, Corrina's Dreamland Band, Guy Forsyth, Milk Drive, Sick's Pack, The Belleville Outfit, Junior Brown, Dale Watson, Robert Earl Keen, and the Bad Livers
LYRICS:
Well if you don't like the way I'm sangin'
And if you don't like the thangs I'm playin'
There's a mighty fine solution to your troubles boy
Tried & true
It's still a free country if you have the inclination
Take your gimpy little hand and change the radio station
Let your high horse pay for your dues - and Buck You
'Cause your never gonna change my tune - so Buck You
There must be somethin' more important in your life for you to handle
Than to leave nasty comments on my Youtube channel
I'm just tryin' to make a livin' while I'm givin' back and sangin' the blues
So if you don't like the way my hips are swayin'
And if you don't like the twangs I'm bangin'
Let your high horse pay for your dues - and Buck You
Well half the people in this bar have done time in prison
So you better shut your mouth
Let 'em dance and let 'em listen
'Cause most of our mamas could kick you till your black and blue
And I can't promise that you won't get shot
By a pistol-packin' redneck in the parkin' lot
So get your loafers off this country line floor -
There's the door - Buck You
So if you don't like the way my hips are swayin'
And if you don't like the thangs I'm sayin'
There's a mighty fine solution to your troubles boy
Tried and true
If you don't like songs about alcohol and exes
You should drive your fancy Lexus
Way the hell outta Texas
Let your high horse pay for your dues - and Buck You
'Cause you're never gonna change our tune - so Buck You
Yeah - You done tried to milk a bull
Now I'm gunnin' for ya
