Lyle Lovett's, "Don't Touch My Hat"
The Funny Lyrics:
My John B. Stetson
Was my only friend
And we've stuck together
Through many a woman
...So if it's her you want
I don't care about that
You can have my girl
But don't touch my hat
Was my only friend
And we've stuck together
Through many a woman
...So if it's her you want
I don't care about that
You can have my girl
But don't touch my hat
Why They're funny:
He doesn't care if someone takes his girlfriend, but he DOES care if someone touch his hat! So be careful!

Lyle Lovett's, "If I Had A Boat"
The Funny Lyrics:
If I had a boat, I'd sail it on the ocean
And if I had a pony, I'd ride him on my boat
And if I had a pony, I'd ride him on my boat
Why They're funny:
Sung from the point of view of a small child. Almost all of Lyle's songs have his dry, quirky sense of humor. Great song writer and lyricist.

Lyle Lovett's, "They Don't Like Me"
The Funny Lyrics:
She said 'You know he doesn't drink much
And we've never heard him curse
And he's really not that ugly, Dear
She could have done much worse'
And we've never heard him curse
And he's really not that ugly, Dear
She could have done much worse'
Why They're funny:
A song about his inlaws, and his belief of their reaction to him. The joke is that Lyle is famously unattractive.
