Jw Cooper - The Fema Trailer Song - Sözleri

Oh Lord I’m too tall to live in a FEMA Trailer


I bump my head on the light bulb when I walk down the hall


But Lord I’m not complaining, ‘cause it’s sure dry when it’s raining


And I could be living back home with my Maw





Sunday afternoon I was living in a 2000 square foot house


With all the comforts of home that made it nice


Watching my TV, soaking up the AC, 


and sippin’ on a glass of sweet tea with ice





Monday night I was sleeping on the floor, down at my big brother’s


Listnin’ to the generator and sweatin’ like a hog


Tuesday I ate an MRE and drove to Denver for gasoline


And a place where I could make that government assistance telephone call





Thank you for calling the Federal Emergency Management Agency Disaster Hotline.


Due to the high call volume we are unable to take your call. 


You will now be disconnected.





Oh Lord I’m too tall to live in a FEMA Trailer


I bump my head on the light bulb when I walk down the hall


But Lord I’m not complaining, ‘cause it’s sure dry when it’s raining


And I could be living back home with my Maw





Spoken: 


Well it only took ‘em six months to set me up and to be honest with you,


I am truly blessed. ‘Cause there’s nothing like being able to sit on the bed


and watch the stove while supper’s cooking 


and be able to see the TV all at the same time. 


At night I can hear the tattered blue tarp on what’s left of my house 


flapping in the breeze and I am thankful that I have a roof over my head. 


And Heaven-forbid if we ever go through something like this again, 


we’ll just pick ourselves up, dust off and go on.


‘Cause that’s just the kind of folks we are down here.





Bridge: 


Well I can't change a lightbulb without a letter from my Congressman


It takes a certified FEMA Repairman just to change out my doormat


And the funniest thing that happened to me was


Well, they put in these lil ol' 2x8 doorsteps


And wouldn't you know about the third day them rascals fell flat





Oh Lord I’m too tall to live in a FEMA Trailer


I bump my head on the light bulb when I walk down the hall


But Lord I’m not complaining, ‘cause it’s sure dry when it’s raining


And I could be living back home with my Maw
