Salado song

Being from near Nashville it's required to write a few songs every year.

Deep in the Heart of TX

Well it's time to go
To Salado
"clap, clap, clap, clap"
Deep in the heart of TX

Well it's finally here
We've waited the whole year
To see the heart of TX.

They'll be lots of brews
And bourbon too
Deep in the heart of TX

We will sing and shout
Then we'll all pass out
Deep in the heart of TX

We'll have lots of fun
We brought knives and guns
Deep in the heart of TX

And a gift for me
Will be a free mini
Deep in the heart of TX

So don't hesitate
Don't even wait
To head down to TX

If you're late
You'll miss the mangrate
Deep in the heart of TX

So let's thank Chicken Spring
For the green egg fling
Deep in the heart of TX

And there's Mickey too
Thanks for all you do
Deep in the heart of TX

Now it's overdue
This song is thru
About the heart of TX

And it's up to you
To add a verse or two
About the HEART OF TEXAS!

    nola's vampire sausage
    looks like it's filled with blood
    deep in the heart of texas

    unsuspecting kiddies try some
    and it makes them cry....
    deep in the heart of texas!

    then I try to console them by telling them it's actually beets
    but the cry even harder
    deep in the heart of texas!

    Surprised?Yes, it's me againI have just returned from the City of HoustonWhat am I doing in town?Well, I'm glad you askedI'm just passing through in search of the ever elusive Eggfest
    I got a job as a car pimp manPassing out wisdom on eggheadforum.comMerely an effort to improve my financial situationAnd ward off a case of the D.T.'s
    So farewell, my darlingPerhaps we'll meet againOn some sin-infested street corner in Salado Texas

    The last one was for Mickey. Here is Henny's:


    That lonesome Texas sun was setting slowAnd in the rearview mirror, I watched it goI can still see the fire in the glowing domeI close my eyes for a moment, I'm still there
    The greenest eggs in TexasAre haunting me tonightLike the beers that fill the expanding waistlineIt's memory fills my mind
    Where did I go wrong?Did I wait too long? Or can I make it right?The greenest eggs in TexasAre haunting me tonight
    Another town, another hotel roomAnother dream that ended way too soonLeft me lonely prayin' for a mini, sonSearching for the strength to carry the Mangrates won
    The greenest eggs in TexasAre haunting me tonightLike the beers that fill the expanding waistlineIt's memory fills my mind
    Where did I go wrong?Did I wait too long? Or can I make it right?The greenest eggs in TexasAre haunting me tonight
    For every post you write, you compose a tomeBut I can't forget the glow if it's green dome.
    The greenest eggs in TexasAre haunting me tonightLike the beers that fill the expanding waistlineIt's memory fills my mind
    Where did I go wrong?Did I wait too long? How can I make it right?Thegreenest eggs in TexasAre haunting me tonight
    The greenest eggs in TexasAre haunting me tonight

    What if he gets pulled for speeding - or for just looking like he's "not from 'round here" - does that make him eligible?

    I got to meet him and Stacie. I can tell you he has that "not froom 'round here" look and no one at the Plano Fest could understand how Stacie could get that drunk to have married him. You will see for yourself Friday. Sorry but still not eligible.

    Tuna still time to make it if you start driving now..... Also the intelligence level after large amounts of adult beverage will make operation of video questionable.....

    I get way smarter when I drink. just ask me.

    And now I have SCIENCE! to back me up......boom

    Bottoms up! Heavy alcohol consumption gives brain dose of extra energy, study finds

    A new study published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation found that heavy drinking boosted a chemical that the brain interprets as an energy boost. The body then uses the chemical as an alternative energy source to sugar.

    @Mickey I don't think I want to be your friend anymore. ;) We're currently flying around Austin on the tollway doing 85. If anybody wants to see us tonight, just turn the tv to TNT. We'll be sitting court side at the Spurs Mavs game. :)
