I don't know how many county fans are here, I was jamming on the way home tonite when this song came up in the mix, and it just seemed to fit so well with a few changes here & there...

If you're not a fan, look it up sometime and change the words around... It really fits!  It's Eric Church - Jack Daniels, barnbldr  style. :)


I got a reputation going 'round
Aint never been the kind to back down
I've thrown a punch or two and gave a few black eyes
But The Beast kicked my a$$ again last night

I did pretty good for a Kip or two
But he don't fight fair like Daddy taught me to
Yeah, my memory turned my head and he snuck up from behind
Yeah, the Beast kicked my a$$ again last night

Always thought this head was made of steel and bulletproof
But the memory of the shadows fading just breaks it right in two
They say every Superman has got his kryptonite
Yeah, The Beast kicked my a$$ again last night

I didn't bleed and I ain't black and blue
It ain't hard to tell who got the best of who
'Cause in the morning light I'm hard to recognize
Yeah, the Beast kicked my a$$ again last night

Always thought this head was made of steel and bulletproof
But the memory of the shadows fading just breaks it right in two
They say every Superman has got his kryptonite
And the Beast kicked my a$$ again last night

That Miller lite's like black power for my soul
Yeah, my head feels like a bomb about to blow
But hell, I'm halfway inclined to give that fuse a light
And let the Beast kick my a$$ again tonight...

I like it! :)

Hmmmmm........we need an anthem....and i LIKE this! ;D

Joe

Updated a little to shadows fading from pain fading...  Still stuck in my head!

I like it too.  Im a country music fan as are several others here, and this is perfect.  Thank you.  I always thought the song, " I get by with a little help from my friends" always fit this group too.  ;)

Not a big country fan but if it was put to blues (or even rap if it rhymed), I think its a WINNER (even if there is a small demographic)

kewl!    8-)



(BTW - I never thought of IT as the beast.  More like a pissed-off Mike Tyson!)
