lyrics

The Ballad of Jillyboo

Is this something that you weren’t expecting
Ain’t I exactly what you were advertising
The cowboys are hot and the sun is high
I’ve got no gingham but I have some rye

What did you expect from a mail order bride
You bought my life but I have some pride
Not much education, but I’ve done the math
To carry your ego, it would break my back

It ain’t the rock that you’re holding steady
It fell from the mountain that we’re standing on
I may be a slut, but I have my pride
I’ll dance with your friends if you don’t empathize

What would you do with a mail order bride
What would you do with a mail order bride
What would you do with a mail order bride
Early in the morning

I first need a home if I’m to go home wreckin’
What rock do you think that you’re holding steady
I threw it so hard, threw it way up high
I hit a condor that was flying by
You got no right to go criticizing
The cowboys are hot and they need civilizing
You promised me chickens and a healthy cock
You may have a gun, but I’ve got this rock.

I’ve got no gingham but I have some rye
I may be a slut, but I have my pride
The desert is hot because the sun is high
I’ll dance with your friends in the bye and bye

In the bye and bye
In the bye and bye
In the bye and bye
Bye bye
