Click here for the link to the lyrics at Galleywinter It’s a parody of Big & Rich’s “Save a Horse, Ride a Cowyboy”

It was done by Brad

or

Save a Joke, Write a Song

(intro)
We are DUM-DE-DE-DUM, DE-DE-DUM-DE-DE-DUM,
DE-DAA-DAAAAA
Yes, we are DUM-DE-DE-DUM, DE-DE-DUM-DE-DE-DUM,
DE-DAA-DAA-DAA-DAA-DAAAA!

Well, I walk into the room
Queer like $2 bills
And it kills and it thrills like my little midget friend Phil
And I get thrown out the bar upside down
And now you’ve got a frown
Because country music’s never gonna be the same

(Chorus:)
Cause I sold out my soul
and I got signed to a label
Tried to make good music
But I just wasn’t able
Homeless men down on Broadway
And an old one named Leroy
They all say
Save a joke, write a song
Everybody says
Save a joke, write a song

Well I don’t know how to sang or do nothing
But be stupid, hey at least that’s something
While the crowd is all
Walking out!
Just like I told ol Leroy
I’ll be the grand marshall or drum major
for your freak parade
We’re the only Mili Vanilli left in this town

Repeat Chorus:
Cause I sold out my soul
and I got signed to a label
Tried to make good music
But I just wasn’t able
Homeless men down on Broadway
And an old one named Leroy
They all say
Save a joke, write a song
Everybody says
Save a joke, write a song

Â
(Spoken:)
I’m extremely inbred
that’s what my mom said
conceived in my dad’s truck bed
As they were getting drunk
Out on some back country road.
My IQ’s not very high
School yard rhymes and marketing have the clock ticking on our 15 min fame time
And we’re goin just about as far as the public will let us go
And people’s evaluation
of our crappy reputation
and our misrepresentations
are all dead on
So I’m telling you now I’m real sorry
That I introduced our act to the country
And sang y’all every terrible song that I wrote
And yes we are dumb!

Cause I sold out my soul
and I got signed to a label
Tried to make good music
But I just wasn’t able
Homeless men down on Broadway
And an old one named Leroy
They all say
Save a joke, write a song
Everybody says
Save a joke, write a song

I’ve added a Moblog to my site. (click on the word moblog for a definition). Even though I do not have a cell phone capable of taking pictures yet, this will allow me to take pictures and just email them to my textamerica.com account instead of setting up a gallery.

To go to my textamerica account, just click on the picture under moblog on the left of this site. (this will always display the most recent addition to my moblog).

Bidding
Marc Bever, co-owner of Bever Livestock Auction, looks at the auctioneer as he points to a bidder during an auction a week ago Saturday.

Link to story about Bever Livestock Auction

“The Central Point auction was owned by Bud Bever. The Wilbur auction is owned by his son, Marc.

“I’ve pretty much been in the business my whole life,” Marc Bever said.

Bever, 36, remembers coming to the Roseburg area for the auction as a child. Now he’s running the show, along with wife, Amber, and teenage sons, Marc Jr. and Matthew.”
