The Lyrics

Took this from a "King of the Hill" Episode (511) where Hank goes to Austin while Peggy and Bobby discover the joys of forbidden heat- charcoal! Hanks finds a lump of coal in the kitchen and gets enraged. In the end there is a taste-off and Peggy lies about propane tasting better. Bobby tells her that she lied to which Peggy responds, "I came to my senses. All of them except taste!"
Hank’s got the propane blues
Folks outta line

Peggy and Bobby like charcoal food
Burgers grillin’
Taste is just thrillin’

They know Hank can’t stand it
He won’t understand
“Wash your clothes, Bobby,
throw in fish sticks, dad’s nose like Doberman!”

[Hanks finds lump of charcoal, makes demands]

Hank’s got the propane blues
Folks outta line
“Vogner” heat’s fine*

“Burns clean too”
“Burns clean too”
“Burns clean too”
But Bobby doesn’t care
Hank in despair
Boy prefers charcoal meat’s
smokey texture

[Get ‘im a beer]

C8H3
Hank’s got the propane blues
Folks outta line
(Family conspiracy)

Yep, Yep, MmmmHmmm, Gosh Darn-It!!!
* Hank pronounces the Wagner grille as Vogner

Haven't seen this show in a long time. Fox runs it against "60 Minutes". Recall a couple of really good episodes, one in which Bobby goes hunting and bags his first deer (Hank let him drive and he hit it with the car) and another in which Hank resigns from Strickland so the number of employees would be below the federal minimum, thus allowing Strickland to take back control of his own company.

I used to watch this show, faithfully, when it first came out...have to hunt for it in the dish jungle, now...so don't see it much...it's a great cartoon..many good themes....might not be a status symbol to say so, but I'm also a Beavis and Butthead fan...that Mike Judge does some great stuff....good work, here...
