So here is the song I wrote. My Blues Nomme de Guerre at the time was
“Smoky Cottonmouth Nixon”

“Stuck Here at Walmart”
by Smokey Cottonmouth Nixon

“Well I Woke up this morning,
beside the Gunnison highway,
Saw ‘nother man just sittin there,
He didn’t have nothin to say.

Yes I woke up this mornin
On the the Gunnison highway.
The bearded bum sittin in the rain,
He had nothin to say.

The cardboard sign he was holdin’
Told the whole world what was goin down
Said “Stuck here at Walmart”
People just drove right around.

He was watchin the poor grouchy woman
Wearin the blue overalls dress
Cram her groceries into that old Chevy van
Man, she was makin a mess.

So we drank nasty black coffee
Beside the Walmart parking lot
Next to Gunnison Highway
I told him what I done.

Well the woman’s baby was hollerin
Over in Pharmacy,
A wailin and crying
For her mama to see.

Her baby daddy shot a man in Memphis
And truly killin he did need
So that po’ mama ran South to Salida
She has that baby to feed.

That baby daddy in Memphis
He knew he was fixin to die
When he told that po grouchy woman
The blue overalls dress made her butt look big.

Blue Overalls Dress woman told her foolish man
You will never see the electric chair
Then she told me “shoot him bubba”
Baby daddy died right there.

So we ran south to Colorado
On the Rocky Mountain Highway
Thing is them blue overalls dress
Made her butt look fat in a big way.

When I told her that at Walmart
She kicked me out of that Chevy van
Now I am stuck at Walmart
Just like that other Salida man.”
