We're awful glad to [F] have the Apples here tonight.
You folks are in for a real [G] treat.
Thank you.
[N]
They were the number one new [G] band on the Country Cousins this year.
[A#]
That's pretty good.
[G] You know, most, uh
I hate to be candid like [E] this, but I might as well.
You know, most people give [G#] me lots of records to play on my Country Cousins radio show because
[B] sometimes five or six people listen to [C] it.
[G] [N]
So Cousin Jeff and I have this little [B] ritual where I open up the wrapper and [G] put it in and we say
We play for about 20 seconds and then [F] I turn on the mic and [B] I say to Jeff,
Well, you think this one's any good, Jeff?
And he says,
[Em] I'm not, uh, not
It's not very [F#] good.
It's not working.
[N] So then we just whip it out of the CD player and throw it in the garbage.
But we had the Apples on the CD player and I asked Cousin Jeff,
I asked one of his folks,
You like this, Jeff?
Yes!
So there you go, approved by Cousin Jeff.
You can put that on your promo.
Apples, yes.
Anyhow, here's an old little tune that explains a bit about the washboard.
A little one called Washboard Boogie.
[C] [D] [C] Well, [D] [G]
you see, you wash the CD, [C] break the CD, and sing.
I'll take that hard rock, take the pills, and screw [Bm] it up.
It's gonna work again.
[G] Don't worry.

[F#] [C] [D]
[Bm] [G]
[C] [G] [A] [C]
[D] [G] [D]

Sweep your [G] car, get in the motel, smoke up, have that barbeque,
and have a [N] good ball, play for a nice plate,
all the way down to the hardback, get that great,
[Bm] get a barbeque, and have [G] a good time.

[F] Hey, [G]
[D] [G] [C]
excuse [C#] me, hey, can you take [G] your cell,
if you're [D] feeling any pain, you're reaching [C] in rough.
I've [F] never had a problem like that before.
[G] Good ball, good [D] ball, and far more [Bm] to go.
