Sunday Mornin' Confession ('bout Saturday Night at Trout's): song inspired by last night's "Joy"
I have a confession to make about the following confession. It's built on a vast exaggeration. But, then again, it's Trout's and isn't it true that to tell a good fish story, at least at little exaggeration is required to capture the interest of the listener? Thanks for the drink, Rockwell, but I didn't get blitz out of my mind as suggested by the song. My first beer must have been shaken up a little too hard, because when it was opened, most of it fizzled out and spilled all over the place. I had one more, and then the one you brought me. Homer brought the roof down with a rowdy, real country performance that had people dancing their butts off. It was all part of a 2-night tribute to the Bakersfield Sound. I stood on the sidelines and took it all in. Then I woke up in the morning, not with a hangover, but with a Homer song in my head, and a song of my own that followed his. So, without further ado, here's the rough, unplugged version of My Sunday Mornin' Confession ('bout Saturday Night at Trout's). I'll perform this song "live" this morning at Starbucks on Roseday Highway near Calloway at about 8:30 am. Here are the lyrics:

Rockwell bout me a Budweiser and I drank to the Bakersfield Sound but by the time that it was over I couldn't find my way 'cross town well the place was filled with cowboys and cowgirls that'd make you shout and it's my Sunday mornin' confession 'bout Saturday night at Trout's
hell, yeh! Hee Haw I can't remember what I heard there and I can't tell you what I saw hell, yeh! no doubt it's my Sunday mornin' confession 'bout Saturday night at Trout's it's my Sunday mornin' confession 'bout Saturday night at Trout's
