Tryin' Stuff On
(Parody of Randy Travis' 'Digging Up Bones')
Jerry Reed
[Verse 1]
D
I took your photograph from our old dresser drawer
I set it on the table and I talked to it til four
G
And then I saw your nightie on the table by the phone
D A D
So I been sittin' alone - tryin' stuff on.
[Verse 2]
D
Then I went through your jewelry, for your clip-on hoop earrings
Your lipstick and your make-up, your accessories and things
G
And I plundered throught your closet, til I found an extra long
D A D
Now I'm been sittin' at home - tryin' stuff on.
[Chorus 1]
D
Trying stuff on, I'm tryin' stuff on
A
Your six-inch heels and your Faberge co-logne
D G
You left me with your memories and the wardrobe that you owned
D A D
Now I'm been sittin' at home - tryin' stuff on.
[Verse 3]
D
I put on your sequine ball gown and I checked the mirror there
I looked like Cindy Crawford, but with much more body hair
G
And then I thought, I'm much too cute, to sit here all alone
D A D
So now I'm at happy hour - with your stuff on.
[Verse 4]
D
A trucker made a pass at me, so I hit him with your purse
The police stepped between us, before it got much worse
G
And then that nice policeman said, can I take you home?
D A D
He didn't know it was me - with your stuff on.
[Chorus 2]
D
With your stuff on, with your stuff on
A
Your fish-net hose and your dress of pink chiffon
D G
Oh, you left me with your memories and the wardrobe that you owned
D A D
But I don't pay for drinks - with your stuff on.
