TOO MANY BUBBAS
(Kurt Fortmeyer/Trent Jeffcoat)
Every Monday night it's the same old same
I kick off my shoes and I put on the game
Crank the TV up way past loud
'Cause something 'bout my house draws a pop-a-top crowd
I love my friends but what I can't stand
Is no matter what I buy it's always their brand
Somebody oughta teach them how to stop at the store
'Cause they're wearing out their welcome and my 'frigerator door

There's too many Bubbas in my beer
Can't get my drinking out of first gear
I've got an alcohol problem that much is clear
There's too many Bubbas in my beer

I sneak down by the creek to my hideaway spot
Where I like to drown worms when the weather is hot
Got an aluminum chair and my fiberglass pole
Except for me and my dog I don't see a soul
But when I grab a cold one and twist off the cap
The whole wide world is sitting in my lap
How they found me is anybody's guess
I think my cooler's got a GPS

There's too many Bubbas in my beer
Can't get my drinking out of first gear
I've got an alcohol problem that much is clear
There's too many Bubbas in my beer

Could be my mind is playing tricks
I swear I bought myself a six
Now it's a five it's a four it's a three two one
I gotta move quick before...
Sonofagun

There's too many Bubbas in my beer
Can't get my drinking out of first gear
I've got an alcohol problem that much is clear
There's too many Bubbas in my beer
I've got an alcohol problem that much is clear
There's too many Bubbas in my beer
Too many bubbas in my beer
Too many bubbas in my beer

Kurt, I can always count on your songs putting a smile on my face. grin Night!


"Grits is one of those country-boy words that is both singular and plural-like deer, elk and sheep. I think the singular is appropriate when there's a modifier that makes it clear one is talking about something specific. Like, 'Grits are good for you, but these here grits is tasty.'"~~Joe Wrabek

Really has a great groove to it. Sounds incredible full with just the acoustic/bass/one vocal. But I like the extra vocals and guitar, too! Some percussion in the later chorus would have been a good addition. Nice acoustic lead.

Enjoyed it all.

I played the acoustic rhythm guitar and the electric bass on this one. That's my buddy Bo Thomas doing the BGVs.

That would be Duane. I guess there's a reason that he has played in bands with Vince Gill, Glen Frey, and Paul McCartney.

Hi Kurt,

What fun! I got a kick out of this. Production is sounding fine as well. I won't tell you it's really clever though. I know how you hate that! smile
I met your co-writer a few years back when I made a trip to Nashville. He was really nice but I kept wanting to call him Jeff Trenchcoat.

He's been called worse...and I have actually seen him listed in the press somewhere as Jeff Trentcoat.
Trent is a wonderful guy.

Hi Kurt. Very clever lyrics and a great Bud lite hearted song. Works well acoustic but would also be great giving it the full electric treatment. Glad to now you are not the only one who has pals with tight pockets.

Don't play it too many times, or you might end up in rehab! laugh
