"...we usually have to play behind chicken wire to keep from being hit by flying bottles and chairs!"

Great post!! Gov Huckabee and his band are grrreat! And his comment about chicken wire and flying bottles just reminded me of something.

Here's a video from our last ball: (adjust your speaker volumn and click on your connection speed about halfway down the page):

And here's the lyrics for one of our favorite tunes (slightly altered of course):

I Love This BALL

(Toby Keith/Scott Emerich)

We got winners,
We got losers,
Chain smokers and boozers,
We got yuppies,
We got bikers,
We got thirsty hitchhikers.
And the girls next door dress up like movie stars.
Mmmm, I love this ball.

We got cowboys,
We got truckers,
Broken-hearted fools and suckers,
We got hustlers,
We got fighters,
Early birds and all-nighters,
And the veterans talk about their battle scars.
Mmmm, I love this ball.

Chorus
I love this ball.
It's my kind of place.
Just walkin' through the front door puts a big smile on my face.
It ain't too far.
Come as you are.
Mmmm, I love this ball.

We got short skirts,
We got high techs,
Blue collar boys and rednecks.
We got lovers, Lotsa lookers,
I've even seen dancin' girls and hookers.
And we like to drink our beer from a Mason jar.
Mmmm, I love this ball...Yes, I do.

Instrumental Interlude

I like my truck.
I like my girl friend.
I like to take her out to dinner.
I like a movie now and then.

But, I love this ball.
It's my kind of place.
Just twirlin' around on the dance floor puts a big smile on my face.
No cover charge.
Come as you are.
Mmmm, I love this ball.

Mmmm, I love this old ball.
