Better Than This

Better Than This



That sleepy little campfire popped and kinda crackled

We were heating up the pork and beans

And Bubba said, man it don't get any better than this if you know what I mean

We sat there for a minute listening to the crickets

Thinking this was pretty hard to beat

'Til Junior stood up, spit in the fire and said boy's, I hate to disagree.



But if a busload of women, really good-looking women

Just suddenly pulled in here

And ol' Joe T. Garcia showed up with fajitas

And a hundred gallon keg of beer

And Haggard dropped by and brought Willie with him

And they started taking requests

Now don't get me wrong boy's this is pretty good

But it could get better than this.



If Bill Dance and Hank Parker floated by in a boat

And volunteered to be our fishing guides

And Richard Petty pulled up in the old 43 car

And asked us if we wanted a ride

We'd all sit around. Singing "Poncho and Lefty"

Playing poker, smoking big cigars

Now don't take offense ya'll. I'm perfectly content

Just sitting here under the stars.



But if a busload of women, really good-looking women

Just suddenly pulled in here

And ol' Emeril Lagasse showed up with kielbasa

And a hundred gallon keg of beer

And Haggard dropped by and brought Willie with him

And they started taking requests

Now don't get me wrong boy's this is pretty good

But it could get better than this.



But if a busload of women, really good-looking women

Just suddenly pulled in here

And Little Jimmy Dickens showed up with fried chicken

And a hundred gallon keg of beer

Merle Haggard dropped by and brought Willie with him

And they started taking requests

Now don't get me wrong boy's this is pretty good

But it could get better than this.



Yeah don't get me wrong boys. This is pretty good

But it could get better than this...
