Float Of Many Bubbas

Not long ago
I went down to Tennessee
Back to the place where I was raised

And I arrived there on the Day of Independence
And I went into town…and was amazed

There were many different Bubbas
Formin’ in a line
And then they went marchin’ by
All totin’ guns…and drinkin’ ‘shine

As I tried to move-in closer
Out in front of that brigade
I saw…a float of many Bubbas
Was leadin’ that parade

They all were standin’ on a flatbed
And I saw my nephew…Jedd
Up on this float of many Bubbas
Crushin’ beer cans on his head

A Redneck Choir was singin’
Songs from the Civil War
But I just couldn’t really see them
With those white sheets…that they all wore

This float of many Bubbas
Had a special NASCAR block
All good lookin’ guys
But dumb as a bag of rocks

The Gatlin Boys came callin’…
By exposin’ Becky’s gems
They shocked that float of many Bubbas
‘Cuz “there was three of them”

Then the cousins started kissin’
It was anything but mild…
On this float of many Bubbas
Was “Southern Girls Gone Wild”

And some blind kid playin’ banjo
A pale-white ghostly youth
From this float of many Bubbas
Smiled…showing off his tooth

Woaah… The Hatfield twins were wavin’
While leanin’ on a log
I wasn’t sure what they were doin’
But one was squealin’ like a hog

And then the Hometown Queen was dancin’
“Daisy Dukes”…held-up with twine
And from that float of many Bubbas
We saw…where the sun don’t shine

Next to the pageant winner
There…Bill Clinton* stood with ease
‘Guess she felt the holy spirit
‘Cuz she fell down on her knees

Yes, it’s true I’ve been ‘a roamin’
But now some things are understood
You see…that float of many Bubbas
I’m takin’ home for good

…To Dollywood
