Junior Brown - Real Country -Slicker Than Snot on a Door-Knob!


"A lot of people tell me they don't like country music, but they like what I am doing," says Junior Brown.

My daughter Clare and her Mother McAuley/Marist/ St. Iggy pals like what now passes for Country Music. Taylor Swift & etc. Now, Junior Brown, like Hank willimas ( Pere et Fil), Waylon Jennings, David Allan Coe, Bob Wills, Kinky Friedman, Buck Owens and other Genuine Outlaws was the real deal. Lookee H'yar! Guit With It!




It's good to see you baby it's been a long long while
We're both a whole lot older and seen a lot of miles
But thing are different now since the good ol days
And youve been in some trouble
Since we went our separate ways
Well have to say hello maybe some other time instead
Cause youre wanted by the police
And my wife thinks youre dead.

Somebody spread the rumor that you had lost your life
Least thats the way I heard it and what I told my wife
Now here youre showing up again and talk is getting round
And I can see that one of us will have to leave this town
If you think that I want trouble
Than youre crazy in your head
Cause youre wanted by the police
And my wife thinks youre dead.

You never called or wrote me just up and disappeared
Nobody knew what happened
Where you been for all these years
Now troubles what youre lookin like
Cause troubles where you been
And I can see the kind of trouble you could get me in
You better pay attention to every word I said
Cause youre wanted by the police
And my wife thinks youre dead.

So goodbye to you baby Im glad weve got to talk
But Im faithful to my wife and I dont ever break the law
I dont know where youre headed for
But I know where you been
Were reminisced now lets just go our separate ways again
Go find another ex-sweetheart to hang around instead
Because youre wanted by the police
And my wife thinks youre dead.
