6. Forty Degrees Below 3:56

I need a ride I need a ride I crashed my car
Why don’t you come on over
Take me to the bar?
I need a ride I need a ride it’s cold outside
And it’s forty degrees below tonight
My baby kicked me out
She won’t let me back in
Now I’m staying over in the Yukon Inn
With ice for a blanket and
snow for a stove
Right now I’m hurting bad
like nobody knows
I need a ride I need a ride
It’s cold outside
And it’s forty degrees below tonight
Knock knock knock Guess who it is?
My little brother with a beer in his fist
He’s here to pick me up
He’s got a full tank of gas in his pick
up truck
My bad ass brother’s
gonna drive me round
All across town so I can let it all out
To BB-Q Pete’s and Flapjack Flo’s
My wife ain’t here
so she ain’t gonna know
I’m never gonna have
a better time than this
And when we get back
there’s beer in the fridge
Went to the monster truck rally
And a wrestling show
A hot dog eatin’ contest
where we got too full
At Hooty McBoob’s
the drinks were cheap
And over at the Legion
I won some meat
We finally got back
and drank what was left
My bad ass brother’s
what I call the best
Knock, Knock, Knock Guess who it is?
His old lady and she looks pissed
She’s here to drag him home
And once again I’m left all alone
Knock knock knock guess who it is
My little baby with a slap and a fist
She’s here with my stuff
She says she’s had it up to here
And she’s had enough
She tells me once
she won’t tell me again
Don’t come around cause
She won’t let me back in
And I don’t think I can just go back
She said her Uncle Charlie
is gonna kick my ass
He told me once
that he won’t tell me twice
He’ll get me back if I don’t be nice
I should have
thought about it long ago
Now I’m left in the snow,
And there’s nowhere to go
And it’s forty below so
