Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I became of age, my mama sat me down
Said, "Son, you're growin' up, it's time you looked around"
So I began to notice some things I haven't seen before
That's what brought me here knockin' on your back door, oh, yeah
[Verse 2]
A closet queen, the bus stop fiend, she wants to shake my hand
I don't want to be there, she decides she can
It's Apple Dan, he's just the man to pick fruit off your branches
I can't sleep, and we can't keep his cattle off my ranches, oh
Oh, yeah, hey, yeah
[Verse 3]
It's too strong, somethin's wrong and I guess I've lost the feelin'
I don't mind the games you play, but I don't like you dealin'
Cards look bad, the luck's been had, and there's nothin' left to smoke
We'll all be back tomorrow for the punchline of the joke, whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, oh
