Hell Yeah
Montgomery Gentry
He works way too much for way too little.
He drinks way too early till way too late.
He hasn't had a raise since New Year's Day in eighty-eight.
Gets trampled on by everyone 'cept when he comes in here.
Now he's a product of the Haggard generation.
He's got a redneck side when you get him agitated.
He got the gold-toothed look from a stiff right hook he's proud he took,
For his right wing stand on Vietnam: says he lost his brother there.
He yells out Johnny Cash and the band starts to play,
"A Ring Of Fire" as he walks up and stands there by the stage.
And he says:
"Hell yeah! Turn it up! Right on!
"Hell yeah! Sounds good! Sing that song!
"Guitar man playin' all night long,
"Take me back to where the music hit me,
"Life was good and love was easy."
She's got an MBA and a plush corner office.
She's got a "don't mess with me" attitude.
She'll close a deal; she don't reveal that she can feel,
The loneliness, the emptiness, 'cept when she comes in here
An' she's the product of the "Me" generation.
She's got a rock and roll side when you get her agitated.
She got the tattoo there on her derriere from a spring break dare,
In Panama where love was all she thought she'd ever need.
She yells out to the band: "Know any Bruce Springsteen?"
Then she jumps up on the bar and she, and she starts to scream.
"Hell yeah! Turn it up! Right on!
"Hell yeah! Sounds good! Sing that song!
"Guitar man playin' all night long,
"Take me back to where the music hit me,
"Life was good and love was easy."
Yeah, yeah.
Can or can't you get my mind off thinkin' 'bout,
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday?
Hey, hell yeah.
Hell yeah! Turn it up! Right on!
Hell yeah! Sounds good! Sing that song!
Guitar man playin' all night long,
Take me back to where the music hit me,
Life was good.
