Dean Brody That's Your Cousin
I'm from a little country town where the sky is blue,
Friday nights around here ain't a whole lot to do.
So I went and called up sweet Becky Lou,
said "How'd you like to go for a drive?"
I took her in my truck to the railroad tracks,
I lit a cozy fire, for a little romance,
Sang her song, and she reached for my hand,
When Daddy busted out the woods,
he said:
Chorus:
Stop it right there, hands in the air.
Think there's something you kids oughta know.
Scared your momma half to death, when your searchin the sticks,
Tryin' to find ya, and dang that was close.
Her daddy's older nephew might be twice removed,
But she's the daughter of a mother related to you.
If you don't wanna go swimming in the same gene pool,
Don't be touchin'
That's your cousin.
I turned around and looked at Becky,
and she looked at me.
Broke the law of attraction almost instantly.
Her pretty brown hair went to ugly and green.
And she gave me my coat back.
So we packed it in when the night was young.
She said "If you don't mind, I still like to have fun,
there's a show called Deliverance on re-run,
Down at the cinema.
Chorus:
Stop it right there, hands in the air.
Think there's something you kids oughta know.
Scared your momma half to death, when your searchin the sticks,
Tryin' to find ya, and dang that was close.
Her daddy's older nephew might be twice removed,
But she's the daughter of a mother related to you.
If you don't wanna go swimming in the same gene pool,
Don't be touchin'
That's your cousin,
Yeah.
Stop it right there, hands in the air.
Think there's something you kids oughta know.
Scared your momma half to death, when your searchin the sticks,
Tryin' to find ya, and dang that was close.
Her daddy's older nephew might be twice removed,
But she's the daughter of a mother related to you.
We need a little separation in our gene pool,
Don't be touchin'
That's your cousin.
I ran into Becky just the other day,
At the new online Internet cafe,
She was lookin' for a man from the Ukraine,
On e-Harmoney.
