Four Trailer Park Boys

The Ballad of Monday's Child

x
just four trailer park boys
livin' for the moment

jammin in the trailer park
over the noise from Clinton Highway

playin' parties and bars
so many gigs to play

scraped together $150.00
to record in a pro studio

hard rock for the poor man
kickin' it southern style

the fans, the radio
the jealous competition

ego trips and substance abuse
things fell apart fast

fame, even local
can be a bitch goddess

I moved on outta there
but one's lost his mind

another's in upper management
number four's on oxycodone

we had such an awesome thing
what went wrong?

just four trailer park boys
who don't even speak anymore!
