My neighbor Carl, he lives next door
Pink flamingos on his porch
At night, he teaches drivin' school
And then he sits out by his plastic pool

He takes off his shirt, he opens up a cold one
Ol' Carl Bean's a fool, but it takes one to know one

Music's playin' up and down the block
Mostly Christian blues, country folk, and Southern rock
It's our little piece of paradise way out here in the woods
There's always somethin' goin' on down at the trailerhood

Across the street, there's Gamblin' Jane
Always got the poker game
If you care to try your luck
You can buy a seat for fifteen bucks

You can call or raise, or you can check and fold 'em
I like Five Card Stud, but it's mostly Texas Hold 'Em

Music's playin' up and down the block
Mostly Christian blues, country folk, and Southern rock
It's our little piece of paradise way out here in the woods
There's always somethin' goin' on down at the trailerhood

Our little tattoos and farmer tans
Rodeo and NASCAR fans
Dallas Cowboy football on TV

But when the storm starts gettin' bad, and you hear those sirens hummin'
Grab a six pack and a lawn chair, there's a tornado comin'

Music's playin' up and down the block
Mostly Christian blues, country folk, and Southern rock
It's our little piece of paradise way out here in the woods
There's always somethin' goin' on down at the trailerhood

I got it made in the shade
With a moonshine lemonade
There's always somethin' goin' on down in the trailerhood

Bring me another beer, Mama
