For those of you who gave it 110% this opening weekend and still came up short, got punched in the gut, kicked in the crotch, and took a left hook to the chin, here's a little song I wrote for you (and me)!

When the ole wild turkey gives us the middle toe, what do we do??? We write a deg'gum song about it & post it on YouTube, THAT'S what we do!!  thumbup Misery loves company, as they say...

Congrats to all of those who managed to wrestle a bird out of the woods this weekend; my camo hat's off to ya! And to those of you who didn't, we'll get right back out there & keep on givin' 'em heck moving forward...

Enjoy; have a great week!

Title: Turkey Man

V1:
For years, I've been bustin' my rear... to kill a turkey,
But he ain't dead
For years, I've been trying to call 'em off the limb,
But he ain't played
I blow every dime I make, on new fangled camo
My wallet flies wide open, as I step into Bass Pro
And this ole broken heart of mine is all I've got to show ...

And anyway... This turkey man ain't got no bird today...

Chorus:
Lord, this turkey man ain't got no bird today...
This turkey man can't get no birds to play...
At daylight I call my fanny off and he ... walks away
But this turkey man ain't got no bird today...


V2:
I paid for a Super Mag ... a 12 gauge as a matter of fact
To bowl 'em over ... out to 60 yards
I paid for a tighter choke, 'bout drove myself broke,
And it ain't worked
And I starve myself to death ... to buy the latest turkey vest
And I keep my budget wide ... for every turkey call in sight
And until that bird flops on the ground, I'll sell everything I own...

And anyway ... This turkey man ain't got no bird today...

[Chorus Repeat]

I plan to; got a friend who's been turkey hunting for over 40 years, and sounds A LOT like Merle Haggard (old school country), and I hope to record him singing this one day, with the "country" treatment!  :)

I was *HOPING* folks would see the humor/irony in this!  ;)
