Bubba Shot The Jukebox

(альбом: Slappers, Bangers & Certified Twangers, Vol. 2 - 2021)

We were all down at Margies bar
Telling stories if we had one
Someone fired the old jukebox up
The song it sure was a sad one

A teardrop rolled down Bubba's nose
From the pain the song was inflicting
And all at once he jumped to his feet
Just like somebody kicked him

Bubba shot the jukebox last night
Said it played a sad song, it made him cry
Went to his truck and got a 45
Bubba shot the jukebox last night

Well Bubba ain't never been accused
Of being mentally stable
So we did not draw an easy breath
'Til he laid that Colt on the table

He hung his head 'til the cops showed up
They dragged him right outta Margies
Told him "don't you play dumb with us son
You know damn well what the charge is"

Bubba shot the jukebox last night
Said it played a sad song, it made him cry
Went to his truck and got a 45
Well he shot the jukebox last night

When the sheriff arrived with his bathrobe on
The confrontation was a tense one
He shook his head and said "Bubba boy
You was always a dense one"

A reckless discharge of a gun
That's what the officers are claiming
Bubba hollered out reckless hell
I hit just where I was aiming

Bubba shot the jukebox last night
Said it played a sad song, it made him cry
Went to his truck and got a 45
Well he shot the jukebox
Stopped it with one shot
Bubba shot the jukebox last night

Well he could not tell right from wrong
Through the teardrops in his eyes
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
It was a justifiable homicide

Bubba shot the jukebox
Stopped it with one shot
Bubba shot the jukebox last night
