lyrics
7
flat stuff
(Greg Brown)
Sundown like a showtune
Trumpets play full blast
To create a great impression
But it doesn't seem the last
Flat stuff, flat stuff
Way out to the way out to the setting sun
You can't find no river
That ain't low and brown
Full of sixteen catfishs this
Lay there farting aroun'
Flat stuff, flat stuff
Way out to the way out to the setting sun
The sun looks like a cookie
That didn't come out right
The moon looks like a cookie
Someone stole a bite
Flat stuff, flat stuff
Way out to the way out to the setting sun
Pete hollers to Ruthie
"Open me a beer.
When you get it open,
bring it over here."
Flat stuff, flat stuff
Way out to the way out to the setting sun
When them old boys come through
Sometimes I think it would been best
If they'd said, "Jesus, it's too flat here"
And just kept going West.
Out of the flat stuff, flat stuff
Way out to the way out to the setting sun
