This was the radio-friendly version-
The original version, produced by Kenny Rogers, had too many allusions to drugs and Jesus, so they changed the lyrics.
The first version is below, and it’s better-
I wonder what the Gun Hill Road would think if they could read lyrics of the Top 40 hits of today when they were told theirs would be too shocking.
But today’s lyrics are “empowering” for women remember. LOL
I wrote a script that grabs me top 100 billboard songs every couple weeks. Script has been on automatic run for decades and the music it provides just gets worse as the years go on. I rarely listen to any of it.
Here’s a real good one. The band, NLE Choppa, wins 18 gold and platinum RIAA certified awards for this crap, “Slut me out”:
Ayy, rip off my shirt if you love me (love me)
Spit in my face when you fuck me (fuck me)
Play with my gooch, while you suck me (suck me)
Eat the dick like you was ugly
I mean, hold on, wait
Where your friend? Bring your buddy (your buddy)
I don’t think that you enoughie (enoughie)
Her favorite thing to say is, “Cuff me”
Slut me out (out)
Slut me out (out)
Slut (slut), slut (slut)
Slut me out
Rip off my shirt if you love me (sexy)
Spit in my face when you fuck me (come sex me)
Play with my gooch, while you suck me (don’t text me)
Eat the dick like you was ugly (don’t text me)
Big dick energy, I give it (I give it)
Don’t believe me, then come feel it (come feel it)
Gon’ put this here in your kidney, please (please)
And hush it like some kidney beans
Suck my balls, come chickpea me
Why you being weird to me? (Weird to me)
Put your ass in my face ’til I get pink eye
Fuck you anywhere, I’m that type guy (that type guy)
At the church, on the plane, at the basketball game
I don’t care, I’ma bust my nut ’til I die (’til I die)
What position do I like? All of ’em, baby (Baby)
Put it on camera, masturbate to it later (to it later)
Ever sucked a vegan dick? Baby, come taste me
Promise that my nut taste like sugar gravy
Don’t cum quick, I control my bladder (control my bladder)

Fat coochies, little coochies, all coochies matter (they matter)

Eat the dick like you was ugly

Where your friend? Bring your buddy (your buddy)
I don’t think that you enoughie (enoughie)
Her favorite thing to say is, “Cuff me”
Not bad,but it ain no Wet Ass Pussy!
Remember? Are you kidding me? The early 70’s is still a blur.
Actually I do remember it, I listened to it when it first came out on the radio. Thanks for the reminder of how old I am. Now get off my lawn!
I remember that song!
The original is better.
Redemptive too.
The last time I bought music from a ‘new’ artist it was Norah Jones.
Folks, I hate to tell ya, but there is still good music out there. It just doesn’t get the light shined on it that much. Even worse is the hours of sewage that must be waded through just to find it. I would never presume to tell anyone what is good music, that’s not for me to decide. What I can tell you is if it is an artist that you’ve never heard before, does that not constitute new music?
For example, if you’ve not heard of Marcus King, and you like things like horns, organs, soulful vocals and killer musicianship, would it matter that this performance is 7 years old if you’ve never seen it before? Check it…

P.S. I still find stuff that blows me away, and it pre-dates me by decades…i.e. Charlie Christian. Musical taste is not linear.
Is it possible I remember lyrics from both versions? Nice strong Vietnam War theme towards the end.
This is in the “Middle 8” format, isn’t it?

I think this one is an original:
Oh….Hand de udder udder over to ma udder brudder
by Farmer Brown’s Boys AKA THE TIT PULLERS
I never heard that one. I did buy a CD of Nana Mouskouri at an estate sale for fifty cents. She’s great. Very soothing. Incredible voice.
