about

Original song by Joe Johnson, featuring Jeff Daugherty and Jon Murphy of The Red Mountain Boys.

lyrics

Sometimes strikes, sometimes gutters
sometimes you eat the cow, sometimes you squeeze the udders
sometimes I use oil, sometimes I use butter.
How come everybody can't love one another?
You tell me because I don't know
but it seems like it'd be a better way to go
instead of running 'round scared of things we don't know
we turn on the TV to our favorite show
It's the one about the woman and the fella and their friends
all the hilarious shenanagins they get in
One loves the other, the other loves another
and on and on it goes

(Chorus)
On and on it goes
Like a mid west prairie rolls
It's a fantastic waste of all my precious time
and on and on it goes

Well I heard a friend talk about the current situation
of the world as he heard it on the radio station
He said they said everything is going down the drain
and that I better get right before it gets too late
I said I believe you underestimate
this stubborn old world, it ain't goin no place
for 5 billion years till the sun burns up
so pour some more wine in your solo cup
turn the radio up, put your windows down
play your music loud for the whole damn town
till the cops show up and haul you out
and on and on it goes

(Chorus)

Now I ain't tryin to preach and I ain't tryin to pry
I probably couldn't change your mind if I tried
but I can change a light bulb and I can change a tire
I change my pants one leg at a time.
Just like you if you change yours too
like I said I ain't here to tell you what to do
I'm just here to tell a story, sing a song or two
I used to drink liquor and I might still do
I used to be dumb till I got me a clue
I used to feel sad till I learned to feel blue
I used to be lonely till I found you
and on and on it goes...
