My favorite thing about this next song, Josh goes today, she said,
is this a real story?
Yeah.
Which is kind of funny when you listen to the lyrics of the song,
but I grew up in this little tiny, very, very tiny town in Mississippi
until I was six years old called Peelahatchee,
and I grew up across the street from a shop that sold bait, chips, beer, and ammunition.
So, literally, so we always wondered what would have happened to me
if I would have stayed there.
So that's what the song is about.
It's called Nothing Better to Do.
Here we go.
[Fm]
[Eb]
[F] [Eb] [Fm]
[Eb] I'm [F] [Abm] [Eb] dressed in a [Fm] breastplate rider
Up [Eb] there on [F] Peelahatchee [Eb] Prairie
[F] [Eb] Just a [Ab] crazy drunk [Db] necked out
And dumped that purse onto [Eb] the water
I tossed away my
[F] [Eb] sandals
[F] [Eb] Now everybody's [F] throwin' down on [Eb] me
[F] [Eb] Couple of my good [F] stupid [Eb] [F] friends
[Eb] They said they're the back of [Db] some business
So them church ladies [Eb] they heard us
Come smoke money from their awful [Db] beds
Mama said I don't [Eb] handle the devil's hand
It [Db] was all the trouble you get [C] into
[Ab] You got nothing better to do
We got nothing better to do
You [F] got [Ab] nothing [F] better to do
You got nothing [Ab] better to do
[Fm]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Here we go
[F] I'm dressed [Ab] in a breastplate [F] rider
Dressed in a breastplate rider
And dumped [Ab]
that purse onto the water
I tossed away my [Db] sandals
Now everybody's throwin' [Eb] down on me
Ain't no more than a rascal
[F] [Ab] In the Mississippi badlands
We dance and play the rascal dance
[F] [Eb] Have them rest in [Db] peace
But they're still a [Eb] fighting game
Just beating off ain't nothing
I [Db]
don't [Eb] handle the devil's hand
[Db] It was all the trouble you [C] get into
[Fm] You [Ab] got nothing better to [F] do
We got nothing [Ab] better to [F] do
You got nothing [Ab]
better to [F] do
We got nothing [Ab] better to [Db]
[Eb] [Db] do
[Eb] [Fm] [Em] Nobody hurt, [Ab] nobody harm
[Gm] Nobody bitchin' [Db] for no
Mama said I don't [Eb] handle the devil's hand
It [Db] was all the trouble you [C] get into
You got [F] [Ab] nothing better to [F] do
You got nothing [Ab] better to do
You [F] got [Ab] nothing better to [F] do
You got nothing [Ab] better to do
We got nothing better to do
We got nothing better to do
You got nothing better to do
We got nothing better to do

[Bb] nowadays [F] [Eb] there wasn't any [F] of that,
I mean, it was like,
it just never hit me.
[Ab]
[Bb] [F] So, that's why I always promote
So, be open [Ab] to it,
Moving on back to get no retour Queen,
TV Army discounts?
So so far, [F] yeah,
It's been pretty [Ab] good [F] until now.
it hasn't been that great.
My onlyанный [Ab] I've been viewers is sometimes,
