Brand New Country Star lyrics

Brand New Country Star
By: Jimmy Buffett
1974
Well he outgrew his sequined suit
Sold his Trailways bus
Let his hair get a little too long
His ducktails bit the dust
His custom made, pearl-inlaid
Guitar slipped from his hand
And in its place a new electrical one
He had flown in from Japan
Chorus:
'Cause he's a cheeseburger-eatin', abandoned Sunday-meetin'
Brand new country star
He rides around in a Lincoln Continental
No steerhorns on his car
Oh the record men say, ";He's the livin' end
They're gonna spin him right to the top
Yeah he's a hot roman candle from the Texas panhandle
He can either go Country or Pop";
He's got a good ol' friend name o' ";Texas Ben";
Tells him all the spots to play
And a sweet little lady, he calls her ";Sexy Sadie";
She's a' with the boy night and day
They're gonna open a chain of fancy bowlin' lanes
The first one in his old home town
And on ribbon-cuttin' day they'll come from miles away
The folks'll all gather 'round
Chorus:
And sing, he's a cheeseburger-eatin', abandoned Sunday meetin'
Brand new country star
Yeah he rides around in his Lincoln Continental
No steerhorns on his car
Oh the record men say, ";He's the livin' end";
They're gonna spin him right to the top
Yeah he's a hot roman candle from the Texas panhandle
He can either go Country or Pop";
I mean, he can either go Country or Pop
Yodels: ";A' yodel layeeo a' leedle layeeo a' leedle layee";
