Lyrics Drive-By Truckers

Drive-By Truckers

Bob

Bob goes to church every Sunday, Every Sunday that the fish ain't biting

Bob never has to have dinner with the preacher,

cause Bob never bothered getting married

He likes to drink a beer or two every now and again,

he always had more dogs than he ever had friends

Bob ain't light in the loafers, he might kneel but he never bends over

Bob takes care of his mama, she's the only one he lets call him Robert

She don't drive anymore so he takes her to the store

and keeps her yard looking just like she wants it

Every week at the beauty shop Bob's mama hears

of another woman made another man disappear

Robert ain't exactly scared of women, he's just got his own way of living

Bob's still got an antenna on a pole

two channels come in, two more come and go

He used to watch the news but he don't anymore,

ain't none of it new it's the same as before

He figures all any of it's any good for is keeping every bored

till there ain't nobody like Bob anymore

Bob takes care of his mama

she's a mess but he feels like he oughta

How big a mess today? Ask Bob he'll say,

“She's a big one and she's gonna be a lotta”

He likes to drink a beer or two every now and again,

he always had more dogs than he ever had friends

Bob ain't light in the loafers, he might kneel but he never bends over
