about

Tracks #1, 2 & 3 are a medley to open the album, the first two being original songs that didn't fit on the first Snipe Hunt album, and the third being an old honky tonk drinking song. The original lyrics were written as a character study about a couple starting off in co-dependency and ending up in B&D. Just written on a lark, really, and not about any experiences my friends (to my knowledge) or myself ever had. And all to a Bo Diddley beat morphing into New Orleans style before rocking the old country chestnut.

lyrics

You Knock the Stuffing Outta Me
(©1998 Walter Ehresman)

You put the glide in my stride; You put the shine on my hide;
You got me walkin' bow-legged just to keep you satisfied.
Oh yeah....It's not a sight you wanna see.
Oh, this friction ain't no fiction, baby--you knock the stuffing outta me.

Well, the action is fast but the motion is slow--
You got to turn me 'round and point me so I'll know which way to go;
Oh, no....Don't want no further injury.
I'm tryin' to play it like a veteran, baby--you knock the stuffing outta me.

[break]
When you tell me to jump, you know I'll ask you "how high?";
When you tell me to yell, you know I don't have to try;
When you bend me like Gumby, you know I'll do the best I can,
'cause a woman like you can put a vice on a man.

With your bodacious bod-works and your devious smile,
You know I may not survive this, but I'm goin' out in style!
Oh, yeah....There ain't no place I'd rather be;
You know I'm primed for reenlistment, baby--You knock the stuffing outta me.
