The In-Law Josey Wales
It was our first date and her daddy asked me in
Handshake like a vice, and cold dark eyes squeezed in an evil squint
Later that night she wanted to go someplace alone
In my mind her daddy’s stare was still our chaperone
Even out in Waikiki on our wedding night
I was almost too nervous to turn down the lights
Cos he’s tall and mean with a long black coat
He’ll scare you straight with the scriptures he quotes
Sawed-off double barrel on an iron rack
Dynamite in a shed out back
Doin’ fam’ly wrong gets him real upset
Served in the Corps., shot five times in the war
And he ain’t dead yet
He’s hard as oak and tough as nails
He’s the in-law Josey Wales
Well, we were still newlyweds when a levee broke
Though we got out fast, all my mounted bass swam home when our house got soaked
When that thievin’ insurance guy refused to pay
So, me n my father-in-law paid him a visit one day
He growled somethin’ over that pencil pusher’s desk
So they cut me a break and cut me a check
Cos he’s tall and mean with a long black coat
He’ll scare you straight with the scriptures he quotes
Sawed-off double barrel on an iron rack
Dynamite in a shed out back
Doin’ fam’ly wrong gets him real upset
Served in the Corps., shot five times in the war
And he ain’t dead yet
He’s hard as oak and tough as nails
He’s the in-law Josey Wales
Repeat chorus
