lyrics

HIGH FAT WOMAN

by STEVE DeHAVEN

EVERYONE ALWAYS TELL YOU,
“DON’T EAT TOO MUCH FAT
WATCH THE SUGAR AND SALT,
KEEP YOUR GUT NICE AND FLAT
KICK THE CAFFEINE AND BOOZE,
JUST AVOID ALL THAT JIVE”
BUT WHEN YOU TAKE OUT ALL THE GOOD STUFF
WHAT’S THE POINT OF BEIN' ALIVE?
YEAH I’M TIRED OF EATIN HEALTHY,
TIRED OF DOIN’ WHAT I’M TOLD
SO I’M GONNA FIND ME A HIGH-FAT WOMAN,
SHE GONNA LOVE MY JELLY ROLL

(THEY TELL YOU) DON’T GO OUT AND GAMBLE,
OR RACE AROUND IN YOUR CAR
DON’T WASTE ALL YOUR MONEY,
HANGIN’ OUT IN A BAR
GOTTA SAVE FOR RETIREMENT,
YOU HAD BEST PLAN AHEAD
BUT IF YOU NEVER REALLY START LIVIN’,
HOW WILL YOU KNOW WHEN YOU’RE DEAD?
YEAH I’M TIRED OF SAVIN’ MY MONEY,
TIRED OF DOIN’ WHAT I’M TOLD
SO I’M GONNA FIND ME A HIGH-FAT WOMAN,
WHO DON’T CARE I GOT NO GOLD

IF YOU TOLD ME I’D LIVE, TO A HUNDRED AND ONE
BUT HAVE TO GIVE UP, EVERYTHING GOOD AND FUN
I THINK THAT I'D CHOOSE, AN ALTERNATE COURSE
“LIVE FAST, DIE YOUNG, AND LEAVE A GOOD LOOKIN’ CORPSE”

YOU CAN WORRY ’BOUT SUNBURN,
SIT AROUND IN THE SHADE
YOU CAN SPEND YOUR WHOLE LIFE,
JUST BEIN’ AFRAID
YOU CAN SIT AROUND MOANIN’,
‘BOUT THE BAD LUCK YOU’VE GOT
OR YOU CAN GET UP OFF YOUR ASS
BEFORE THE WHOLE THING STARTS TO ROT
‘CAUSE I’M TIRED OF WORRYIN’ ‘BOUT DYIN’,
THERE’S TIME FOR THAT WHEN I GET OLD
NOW I’M GONNA FIND ME A HIGH-FAT WOMAN,
WHO’LL STAY BESIDE ME TILL I’M COLD
YEAH I’M GONNA FIND ME A HIGH-FAT WOMAN,
HOPE SHE’S BIG & BRASSY & BOLD
SAID I’M GONNA FIND ME A HIGH-FAT WOMAN,
SHE GONNA LOVE MY JELLY ROLL
