Bilingual
I got my first tattoo on the very same day
I first heard Mama tried
Before too long, well, me and my songs
Outgrew my double wide
So I called the boys, I said, "Grab your toys
We need drums and a pedal steel"
Slapped our brand on the side of the van
We're the Hounds of the Bakersfield
I got a bucket of hits, I wrote 'em myself
They're all about love and danger
Well, I don't wanna brag, but look out, hag
Here comes another stranger
ย
We played the hippie shows and the rodeos
Up and down the old honky tonk trail
And I made it a point to hit every joint
From Fresno to Oildale
We're not messin' around, we're headed straight uptown
For a big dog record deal
Diggin' up bones like Sherlock Holmes
We're the Hounds of the Bakersfield
I got a bucket of hits, I wrote 'em myself
They're all about love and danger
Don't wanna brag, but look out, hag
Here comes another stranger
ย
I got a bucket of hits, I wrote 'em myself
They're all about love and danger
Well, I don't wanna brag, but look out, hag
Here comes another stranger
No, I don't wanna brag, but look out, hag
Here comes another stranger
Yeah, here come another stranger
You know, we don't fetch, we don't heel
We're the Hounds of the Bakersfield
ย
Yeah, my mama tried
ย
Mama did too
ย
Oh yeah, we got licks in every key
