D G A

Chorus:

D G

Double Wide Blues

A

I got the blues

D

Double wide

Verses-

D

V-neck t-shirt, with a mustard stain

G

Holdin' up a hose, outside in the rain

A

He's been my neighbor since '79

D

'Course he was in prison most of that time

D

Ever since then he just ain’t been right

G

his old lady works days and they fight most nights

A D

Laid off and blown off, pissed off on booze

Double wide blues

Metallica song blastin out from two trailors down

Its them cut of t-shirt numb chuck kids comin around

Tonight they'll get drunk, try to get laid

End up in a fight out behind the arcade

You know one of them little shits broke my window last spring

I told his momma she didn’t do anything

She works two jobs, he runs loose

Double wide blues

Chorus

My buddy Jimmy, now his trailers cool

He got him a deck with one of them blue plastic pools

Workin construction, he builds speck homes

His old lady left him, now he's down there alone

My friend Anita, she loves him, but he dont know

He's so busy chasin my neighbor’s wife, Flo

Soap opera heaven without all the clues

Double wide blues

Chorus

Wild Bill the manager he keeps to himself

The war took his smile like them pills took his health

Too old to run with the Klan anymore

US Flag hangin outside his door

I sit here watchin all this nuthin go on

I don’t get out much now since momma's been gone

Sometimes its nice, havin nuthin to lose

Double wide blues

Chorus

Take me home boys,

I think I’m drunk
