Fonzy type lyric for the old farts out there, including myself.  "The Neighbor Hood" (©2006 BobbyJoe) White t-shirt, tight blue jeans Pack o' Luckies rolled up in his sleeve Snake tattoo says he's up to no good Man, there goes the neighbor hood He's James Dean cool with slicked back hair Hot women waitin' for him everywhere I'd be just like him, if I only could Man, there goes the neighbor hood Chorus: Man, there goes the guy all the guys would love to be He's too cool for school and any fool can see Katy did and Donna might and Holly prob'ly would Man, there goes the neighbor hood Every weekend he's losin' his brains Rockin' 'em out down on Lover's Lane He loves bad girls 'cause they make him feel good Man, there goes the neighbor hood Chorus: Man, there goes the guy all the guys would love to be He's too cool for school and any fool can see Katy did and Donna might and Holly prob'ly would Man, there goes the neighbor hood Bridge: Twenty years later with his name on his shirt He's the bowling team star in the league at work Got a wife and two kids and a house in the woods Man, there goes the neighbor hood Chorus: Man, there goes the guy all the guys would love to be He's too cool for school and any fool can see Katy did and Donna might and Holly prob'ly would Man, there goes the neighbor hood |

Hey Bobby Joe, I think you must have written this one for my older brother. He was definitely that guy in 1960's Northeast Reno. Another good un. Dave |
