Dear Penis
David Allan Coe · Other Songs - David Allan Coe
I don't think I like you anymore,
you used to watch me shave,
Now all ya do is stare at the floor.
Oh dear penis,
I don't like you anymore.
It used to be you and me,
a paper towel and a dirty magazine,
that's all we needed to get by,
now it seems things have changed,
and I think that you're the one to blame.
Dear penis,
I don't like you anymore.
He sings......
Dear Rodney,
I don't think i like you anymore,
cos when you get to drinking,
you put me places I've never been before.
Dear Rodney,
I don't like you anymore.
Why can't we just get a grip,
on our man to hand relationship,
come to terms with truly how we feel.
If we put our heads together,
we'd just stay home forever,
Dear Penis,
I think I like you after all.
Oh, and Rodney,
while you're shaving, shave my balls.
