Football, Dogs & Alcohol

I live in Nashville, Tennessee
Home of the Tennessee Titans
Since football came to town
This place ain't been the same

It used to be Music City
Now all that's down the drain
Since football took over
Nashville ain't been the same

Football, Dogs & Alcohol
That's all these people know
That's all they care about
Yeah, that's the whole show

Better not mess with football
Better not kick their dogs
Keep pouring that alcohol
Football, Dogs & Alcohol

Homeless veteran on the street
Nobody cares about his plight
But if you shoot a dog
You're in for a real fight

Don't matter if dogs kill babies
Pitbulls and Doberman Pinschers
People here love their dogs
While they hate their neighbors

Football, Dogs & Alcohol
That's all these people know
That's all they care about
Yeah, that's the whole show
Better not mess with football
Better not kick their dogs
Keep pouring that alcohol
Football, Dogs & Alcohol

Man flops in front of his TV
Just got fired from his job
Says, "Babe, bring me a beer!"
While she thinks, "What a slob!"

As the dog jumps into his lap
It's getting close to kickoff time
With 12 cold ones on ice
He'll be buzzing by halftime

Chorus
