I got an angel of woman with big blue eyes Friends in the country, old neckties Big cheeseburgers and good French fries Could go fishing but the fish draw flies Could go swimming if it ain't too deep I'd rather just sit here and rest my feet I know I ain't lazy cause I don't like sleep Might just be lazy to you I want to live in the city have a telephone Live in the country throw my dog a bone Ride on space ship want to get lost Mama still tell me about the Pentecost Ride a bicycle but my ass gets sore Sell the holy bibles, door to door Used to be stupid but ain't no more Might just be stupid to you I like to drink beer, hang out in bars Don't like buses, and I don't like cars Don't like president, don't like stars Never had stitches, but I do got scars Love to go to parties, I love my friends Got no books, just got bookends Thing I'm crazy, well that depends It don't seem that crazy to me The story's old as since 74 There's always doing, here's some more Friend come over from the liquor store Jole he dance till his feet get sore Love my woman and my woman loves me Don't go skiing cause I can't ski That kinda thing, that didn't bother me So it shouldn't be bothering you I got an angel of woman with big blue eyes Friends in the country, old neckties Big cheeseburgers and good French fries Could go fishing but the fish draw flies Could go swimming if it ain't too deep I'd rather just sit here and cool my feet I know I ain't lazy cause I don't like sleep Might just be lazy to you Might just be stupid to you Don't seem that crazy to me Well it shouldn't be a bothering you
because of his disability, people considered him stupid. a distateful prejudice at the time that was all too common. I lived in Malvern Arkansas during the early 60's when Blaze (Michael David Fuller) might have been passing through selling bibles, back in the town where he was born.
Not sure if its just me, But I feel like he doesnt say, " Story's old since 74'". But I think he says, "The story's old, 's been said before. All there is too it.. and here's some more"
Blaze Foley and John Prine are two of the best song writers of all times RIP Blaze and John
Sometimes I'll go weeks without listening to any other music besides stuff from these two titans
Agreed.
I really wanna make an adventurous, wholesome, soul searching movie w this song playing in the background during a montage
I think about that everytime I listen to this song
Go drinking with the local homeless folk. You'll get some adventure lol
DO IT
please?
There should have been more Blaze Foley in Oh Brother Where Art Thou
Great choice for a movie
BLAZE SHOT IN THE BACK HELPING SAVE AN OLD MAN NOW STILL HIS MUSIC LIVES ON RIP WE MISS HIM AND TOWNS VERY MUCH xxoo
I think he just might be the best.
The more I listen
the more I like ...
I got an angel of woman with big blue eyes
Friends in the country, old neckties
Big cheeseburgers and good French fries
Could go fishing but the fish draw flies
Could go swimming if it ain't too deep
I'd rather just sit here and rest my feet
I know I ain't lazy cause I don't like sleep
Might just be lazy to you
I want to live in the city have a telephone
Live in the country throw my dog a bone
Ride on space ship want to get lost
Mama still tell me about the Pentecost
Ride a bicycle but my ass gets sore
Sell the holy bibles, door to door
Used to be stupid but ain't no more
Might just be stupid to you
I like to drink beer, hang out in bars
Don't like buses, and I don't like cars
Don't like president, don't like stars
Never had stitches, but I do got scars
Love to go to parties, I love my friends
Got no books, just got bookends
Thing I'm crazy, well that depends
It don't seem that crazy to me
The story's old as since 74
There's always doing, here's some more
Friend come over from the liquor store
Jole he dance till his feet get sore
Love my woman and my woman loves me
Don't go skiing cause I can't ski
That kinda thing, that didn't bother me
So it shouldn't be bothering you
I got an angel of woman with big blue eyes
Friends in the country, old neckties
Big cheeseburgers and good French fries
Could go fishing but the fish draw flies
Could go swimming if it ain't too deep
I'd rather just sit here and cool my feet
I know I ain't lazy cause I don't like sleep
Might just be lazy to you
Might just be stupid to you
Don't seem that crazy to me
Well it shouldn't be a bothering you
Good old TRUCKER MUSIC like in Rachell Drive In in TEXAS ...... TEXAS COWBOY CB FISHCAT.... COME ON 10-4 Good Budy I'm out for trucking
a verse from this song is on his grave stone. "Like to drink beer and hang out in the bars......."
where's his grave? I know its in south Austin.
Perhaps hardest video ever made
this just might be my favorite song
Stupid is as stupid does . . . I'm a Blaze crazy fan . ! .
Shee eeeittt this is .. dope
Blaze lyrics are all so well thought out. I think he was far from stupid.
Blaze had a Phd. from the school of hard knocks.
He was a genius.
because of his disability, people considered him stupid. a distateful prejudice at the time that was all too common. I lived in Malvern Arkansas during the early 60's when Blaze (Michael David Fuller) might have been passing through selling bibles, back in the town where he was born.
Thanks for posting this great Blaze song, I liked your video too.
this is the rite speed
This is just good ole music ! heck yeah Thumbs Up !
The animations are amazing! Some funny typos though. Like "Well the storys old, its been said before." is not 1974 =)
I love this video!
Damn...just damn, that's excellent
love love love!
Very like Guy Clark. Both fantastic.
Wow
Shouldn’t be bothering you…
you could send this song and vid to Aliens and they would have a pretty good idea of us
Great music!
Not sure if its just me, But I feel like he doesnt say, " Story's old since 74'". But I think he says, "The story's old, 's been said before. All there is too it.. and here's some more"
I sure miss Blaze
I miss him too, so I guess that makes at least 2 of us...
Crazy funny video! Thanks for sharing!
Supernatural Resonance, Beauty, Compassion
People call Cash and Dylan the greatest songwriters. Blaze Foley is the greatest songwriter. 🙌 and Townes van Zandt is a close second.
No one claims Cash is a great songwriter
@@michaelwalsh5984 he mentions cash, but not Prine???
Better than van Zandt? Come on now....
@@Vingul Zandt was more a better poet than songwriter.
Blaze Foley and John Prine the Two kings
Sending this out to my friend Taylor .
_Let's Just Hope Taylor Appreciates It!_ - j q t -
