Fat Flossie Comes Back Lyrics

Fat Flossie she's stepping out

She going to leave you lonely she going to leave no doubt

Oh yeah fat Flossie she's stepping out

Fat Flossie I sang about her before

About ten years ago she was lying on my bedroom floor

Her pants around her ankles saying come on baby give me more

So I asked fat Flossie I said honey would you be my wife?

Would you live with me and make me happy my whole life?

She said yes I will no I won't yes I will okay let's do it right

And so we had ourselves a wedding it was the party of the year

We held it on the last day of December it was getting pretty near

To the new life beginning for us everybody was filled with good cheer

And fat Flossie and I we hit the floor

We drank champagne we danced all night and more

We did some loving behind that hotel door

Yeah smoking marijuana drinking beer

I told fat Flossie that I would always be her dear

She said honey you seem so damn sincere

And then the years rolled by and the bedroom got cold

Oh yeah the years rolled by fat Flossie and me we got old

She went looking for another I said oh baby I told you not to do that honey

Fat Flossie I found her there at home lying in a negligee all alone

While out in my television room there was another man who said you don't own her anymore

Fat Flossie why do you do these things to me

I used to love you I could love you again you'll see

All I ever wanted was for you to be true to me go Flossie

Fat Flossie then she began to hit the booze

She said you ain't got nothing boy that I can use

She said just go away leave me alone you've been refused

I said fat Flossie why you act that way?

Oh I can still remember our wedding day

And when you said you would love and honor but you wouldn't obey

And I said that's okay

But I didn't know that it meant you'd be another world

A world away from me ah your skin is curled

And every now when I get home you're just lying there baby I don't need you like that

Walk Flossie

Fat Flossie and I we stopped our talking

She knew that someday I'd be walking

But still it came to her as a shock when I was squawking about leaving town

She said honey honey honey can we try it one more time?

I said honey honey honey I got a girl who drinks much better wine

And she only drinks half a bottle and then she turns around and says you're mine

Fat Flossie and she she got real thin

She said okay I've got a new life ah let it begin

Oh if you want me I'm still here I ain't going in

Fat Flossie she said the girl she only begs

And she might have real skinny legs

But she's going leave you alone

You're going be lonely there tapping those kegs and now I am

I'm just slinging out drinks on the barroom floor

And fat Flossie she don't live with me no more

I kind of miss her sometimes sometimes it cuts to the core

Fat Flossie what are you doing tonight

Are you drinking a beer with my cat by the candlelight?

Are watching television or are you spinning out of sight

And I would never say in that way that would want you back

I want you a different way girl I know you feel like that

Why don't you get some help you need a heart attack?

Listen to hear walk

She ain't so loud no more

She don't make so much noise when she's on the floor

She kind of skips

Fat Flossie she's stepping out

She got a whole new wardrobe she'll leave you with no doubt

Yeah she's a woman of the nineties she's a woman with a lot of clout

And it turns me on every time I see her face

Oh she makes me think of a warm and loving place

And then I look back in my room oh my God I'm such a disgrace

And I'm gonna forget that fat Flossie was mine

I'm gonna walk outside in the yard in the bright sunshine

I'm gonna bend over and give the world my behind

Oh Flossie Flossie Flossie

Oh and now she ain't so fat

Fat Flossie I haven't seen her in so long

Now she's got those real skinny legs but that wouldn't make much of a song

Can't call her skinny Flossie so I'll call her fat Flossie from now until the break of dawn

And that's how long this song's been going on

That's how long fat Flossie has been gone

I'm drifting away honey I'm drifting all night all night long baby
