Skinny

This is a story about an underdog the skinny fella
You know a skinny guy gets kicked around and whipped cussed and threatened
But what people don't realize is he's dangerous

(Skinny skinny skinny)

Now just below Houston right near Baytown
There lived a skinny guy that everbody pushed around
The big boys laughed at his skinny frame
He's just skin and bones so they give 'em a name
They called him Skinny

Well ole skinny tried hard to mix with the crowd
He took up drinkin' and cussin' out loud
He tried tellin' jokes well they laughed alright
They laughed at the size of the boy called Skinny
Oh he is Skinny (Skinny Skinny Skinny)

And then one day along about noon
A cowpoke staggered from a town saloon
A wind came up and Skinny blew by
He didn't mean any harm he wadn't a troublesome guy just Skinny

Well the boozed up saddle tramp made a wise crack
But Skinny didn't answer didn't even look back
The cowpoke rushed him pushin' for a fight
Cowpoke was heavy and of course Skinny was light

Well old Skinny took a beatin' with his hands at his side
Wouldn't land a blow to save his own hide
For the ornery cowpoke was ole Texas Pearl
He wouldn't hit her cause Pearl was a girl

Then the town's big bully made a big mistake
He started razzin Skinny and that was all he could take
Skinny raised up his arm of solid bone
Drove it through his heart and the bully just groaned

Now all you big bully's had better take heed
Learn a lesson from this man's deed
Pick on a big guy if you pick on any
And never fool around with a guy that's Skinny
