Be Here Tonight
It's my privilege to be here tonight
It's my duty to do what I think right
Don't like what I see, well I guess it's up to me
Either shut my trap, negotiate, or fight
I was sittin' down for supper 'bout eleven past ten
When my good ol' boy's old lady come bustin' in
Officer Good Lookin' and his pal Moustache Steve
Were taking turns on lover boy and givin' him the squeeze
Ya know what I said
It's my privilege to be here tonight
It's my duty to do what I think right
Don't like what I see, well I guess it's up to me
Either shut my trap, negotiate, or fight
You come clean and talk with us, to clear up what we know
Tell you what we think is true, just give a yes or no
We think your good old Bud, he ain't no good at all
We'd like to have a talk with him why don't-cha make the call
Yee-haw and he sang like a pretty little bird
It's my privilege to be here tonight
It's my duty to do what I think right
Don't like what I see, well I guess it's up to me
Either shut my trap, negotiate, or fight
I was halfway outta town when they "helped me to the ground"
Said, good old boy get over here, lookie what we found
Whaddaya know that chump worked like a crystal ball
To think he almost got away, carryin' it all
And he sang
It's my privilege to be here tonight
It's my duty to do what I think right
Don't like what I see, well I guess it's up to me
Either shut my trap, negotiate, or fight
Judge said he'd reckon that the proof was somewhat thin
But then again my buddy sure did turn me in
Said, since it seemed like half the truth, he'd give me half the time
Instead of twenty fuckin' years, I'd make due with a dime
And as they were haulin' me away, I heard the judge singin'
It's my privilege to be here tonight
It's my duty to do what I think right
Don't like what I see, well I guess it's up to me
Either shut my trap, negotiate, or fight
All together now
It's my privilege to be here tonight
It's my duty to do what I think right
Don't like what I see, well I guess it's up to me
Either shut my trap, negotiate, or fight
Don't like what I see, well I guess it's up to me
Either shut my trap, negotiate, or fight
It's my duty to do what I think right
Don't like what I see, well I guess it's up to me
Either shut my trap, negotiate, or fight
I was sittin' down for supper 'bout eleven past ten
When my good ol' boy's old lady come bustin' in

Either shut my trap, negotiate, or fight
