Wild Turkey    (1982)

I had one lover in all my life
He left me high and dry
But after I cried all my tears
I learned how to get by
Well there's been old friends to ease my pain
Jack Daniels to name a few
But I'll be damned if I go home
With a wild turkey like you.

Well I've been out with Johnny Red
George Dickel has warmed my soul
I've taken Southern Comfort
To my sweet Kentucky Beau
And on the cold nights Old Grandad
Has helped me make it through
But I'll be damned if I go home
With a wild turkey like you.

I have seen some losers
Who could make a statue cry
But boy, if you had feathers
I'd swear that you could fly.

Yes I came in here alone
And yes I've had a few
But I'll be damned if I go home
With a wild turkey like you.

Don't get the impression
That I care about what you do
But when it gets close to Thanksgiving
I'd hide if I were you.

Yes I came in here alone
And yes I've had a few
But I'll be damned if I go home
With a wild turkey like you.

I'll be damned if I go home
With a wild turkey like you.

Lyrics by Hugh Moffatt and Pebe Sebert.
