"Get Off My Case" lyrics

Moe Bandy & Joe Stampley Lyrics

"Get Off My Case"

We were sittin' in a bar downtown just the other night
We's a havin' a drink and havin' a time a really feelin' right
When this fancy dude started puttin' down our music and our boots
Well, we just had to set him straight when he started puttin' down our roots

We said, get off a my case get outta my face leave these good ole boys alone
When you start puttin' down country you're puttin' down home sweet home
Better let it slide and a run and a hide or son we're gonna get it on
Get off a my case get outta my face leave these good ole boys alone

Well, now we were drivin' down the road late one afternoon
The radio was a playin' loud an old Hank Williams tune
When this wise guy pulled up beside us in a big long Cadillac
When he yelled turn down that noise we both hollered back

We said, get off a my case get outta my face leave these good ole boys alone
When you start puttin' down country you're puttin' down home sweet home
Better let it slide and a run and a hide or son we're gonna get it on
Get off a my case get outta my face leave these good ole boys alone

Now we were playin' in a high-class club with crystal chandeliers
In between a song we asked the crowd what they'd like to hear
When some guy in a tux and a tie said our music was uncouth
We just turned our mikes up loud and then we both cut loose

We said, get off a my case get outta my face leave these good ole boys alone
When you start puttin' down country you're puttin' down home sweet home
Better let it slide and a run and a hide or son we're gonna get it on
Get off a my case get outta my face leave these good ole boys alone

Get off a my case get outta my face leave these good ole boys alone...
