Well I was born in Tennessee but it couldn't hold me
I told my mama and my daddy that I got to be free
I moved to California where the sun shines all day long
If it feels so good, girl, you know it ain't wrong
I started playin' in the clubs, playin' keys
I started chasin' every woman laid a smile on me
Played with Guns N' Roses by the time that I was twenty-three
Yes that rock n roll life wasn't rock n roll enough for me
Yeah, 'cause I wanna get down
Down like a basset hound
Down to the honky tonk sound
Burn this juke joint down
Make Hank proud
Get drunk
Get loud
I'm bound ta git down
Bound ta git down
Well I made a few records, I wrote a few songs
I took 'em down to Nashville and sent em all home
Ten years on the bus still checking traps in Tennessee
See if Fender Ben can help me out and pull a string for me
Now I got me a house in the Hollywood Hills
I smoke me some weed but I don't take no pills
I got me a band, we love jammin'
I might play guitar, I might play Hammond
I might start a band with Marilyn Manson
Call it Johnny B. Bad
You know that I'm bad, git down
Down like a basset hound
Down to the honky tonk sound
Burn this juke joint down
Make Hank proud
Get drunk
Get loud
I'm bound ta git down
Bound ta git down
You know that I am
Ooooh
Yeah Leroy...
Oh I wanna get down
Down like a basset hound
Down to the honky tonk sound
Burn this juke joint down
Make Hank proud
Get drunk
Get loud
I'm bound ta git down
Bound ta git down
