The Talkin Song Repair Blues - Alan Jackson n-He shook his head and said: This ain t good;
Your timin belt s done shrunk one size too small; And those spark plug wires are a little too long, And your main prodsponder s nearly gone; Your injector ports are stripped, and that ain t all... ...Your torque converter s runnin low on torque, And that water pump s nearly down a quart; We caught it all in time, so you re in luck. He said, I ve got the time, and I ve got the parts, Just give me the word, and I m ready to start; I think we can bring her in for-uh, eight-hundred bucks. But don t be downhearted, I can fix it for you, sonny; It won t take too long, it ll just take money. Then he said, Aren t you that songwriter guy? n-I said, Yes I am. He said, So am I. He set down and played me a song by the grease rack; When he finished singin he gave me a smile, And I closed my eyes and pondered a while; n-he said, What do you think? Now don t hold nothin back. Well I gave him my most sorrowful look, And I said, This song s got a broken hook; n-I can order you a new one from Nashville, but it won t be cheap; And I know you ve been using a cut-rate thesaurus, Cause your adverbs have backed up into your chorus, Now your verse is runnin on verbs that are way too weak. But don t be downhearted, I can fix it for you, sonny; It won t take too long, it ll just take money. n-I said, Hold on friend, Now I m not through; I hate to be the one, to give you this news, But your whole melodic structure s done worked itself loose; It s got so many dotted eighth notes in it, I d keep her under fifty beats per minute; I mean, that s just me talkin , it s really up to you... ... n you ve got a bad safety problem, With that dominant chord, with the augmented fifth, Just see how dangerously high it raises you up; So just go on over and work on my car, And I ll sit here by the fan, and chances are, I can straighten this thing out for eight-...uh, nine-hundred bucks. But don t be downhearted, I can fix it for you, sonny; It won t take too long... You guessed it... It may be a hit... I like it!
