Ma I've Moved Up To Heaven Texans Tall Tales

Use to have a house not very big
and it was on wheels,
got it out along the highway
got a heck of a deal.
Called my old friend Cooter
to bring his tractor by,
and we moved that their traily
to my homestead on I-35.

There was this property
right there between the roads,
they kept it up all nice and groomed
it was a piece of gold.
I set that there trailer up
and was doing mighty fine,
when I heard about another one
down the line.

Gosh dern what luck
and I jumped on my RTV,
headed that way I  just had to see.
Sure enough there it was
just shining like new, 
and the old guy that wanted it gone
replied its yours if it will move.

Oh I thanked the man
and was as excited as a scalded dog,
I reached into my pocket and called Cooter
on the walky talky phone .
Hey Cooter come back and I waited a bit,
Then yelled hey Cooter come and git it.

Cooter when I would say that
thought I had me some girls,
he would throw down what he was a doing
and com a runnin for sure.
It were'nt long before the dust shown off  a bit,
and I knew when he found out he would truly spit.

Oh we got the home moved
and old Cooter a bell did ring,
he told me wouldn't it be amazing
if we stacked them so they could see.
It would be a lot better
and the neighbors could just yell,
and if they needed a beer
they could toss it or just talk a spell.

Oh this was just the best idea
so they joined heads,
had to figure out what to put underneath them
to stack them you bet.
So I got out my trusty tablet
that I like to doodle on,
and I had it all figured out
and it didnt take me very long.

We can stack them catywonkers
atop each other ye see,
Kinda off set but still where they would
have plenty of room indeed.
We could stabalize them
with some stairs made of pipe,
and upon that there paper
that condo was lookin nice.

No one was paying much atention
to Billy Bob and Cooters PARK ,
they just thought they was broke down
but most of the work was after dark .
Cooter would bring the beer
and old Billy Bob welded indeed,
and it twernt long and they had
a for rent sign come see.

You know it dont take us here country boys long
to make an idea come alive,
And nobody pays any atention
until they see mama and the kids arrive.
We was a living the life and did it all on our own,
that is until the state trooper came up
and told us we had to move on .

Old Cooter got all huffy
and pert near cried ,
he yells out why did you wait
till we had it all finished to arrive,
Ive been working on this here condo
for pert near a year,
what did somebody just not let you out of your cage
and sent you
here,

Theres been state troopers
and police and even judge,
I spoke to congressmen
and one day even the president sun ,
You gonna tell me that your
the only one who gives a flip,
I say you want it down you take it down
ifen it's yours and have yourself a good trip.
