The Flies Of Texas Are Upon You Lyrics

Vs 1
The first time I met Mary Lou
I never entertained the thought of ever leavin' Cleveland.
But then I kissed her ruby reds and she whispered in my ear
That her daddy really cleaned up down in Houston.
She said "Why not come home with me?"
My nose for opportunity could smell the possibility of bucks.
So with Houston there at my disposal
I accepted her proposal,
And wished my friends in Cleveland lots of luck.
But I never dreamed as we were drivin'
Tomorrow I would be arrivin'
To find her daddy owned a fleet of ... Garbage trucks!

Chorus
And "Now the flies of Texas are upon you" Ray Stevens - The Flies Of Texas Are Upon You - http://motolyrics.com/ray-stevens/the-flies-of-texas-are-upon-you-lyrics.html
Yeah that is what she said I'm really cleaning up!
The flies of Texas are upon you
Oh this garbage ain't my bag I think I've had enough.

Now I'm on top of the heap,
But as I look around I realize this ain't the kind of heap I was expecting.
'Cause I can see di-STINK-ly
Mary Lou has found somebody new and I've become what I've collected
If I'd have known that night she jump me
She was only gonna dump me
I'd never have become a company man.
So the next time some girl says to me
"My daddy's BIG in Tennessee!"
I'll assume she means that he just... fat!
