A pretty girl with a juicy butt, she
gets around but she's not a slut, she
just likes sex.
She's got a smile that'll make you sweaty
Give you goosebumps, you're not ready for more.
If you think you're the only one with an eye on the prize,
every goddamn boy at this party's making love with his eyes
to her.
She only talks 'round her closest friends or
when she's drunk so make amends o'er
a shot, then sex
might come if you get lucky,
but you'll fear you're just a fuck, she
is not
in love, isn't that what you need boy?
Is it good enough to be just another toy,
for her?
Can't you see that she's on fire
and she's burning for a heart?
Can you feed her desire?
Is it tearing you apart?
She's a sweet banana.
Could it be she's really fallin'?
Maybe now she's only callin'
for fun, so get your feet wet.
Is it wrong if you're just a secret?
Is it lost if you can't keep it
for her?
If you'd let her make the rules it would be alright.
Are names and labels really worth the fight
with her?
Someday when we're older
will we still be singing our old
songs that make us feel like we don't
have to follow rules?
If the world is colder
she can be your sweet banana
maybe then you'll realize that you
never had to choose. - Track Name: 6:37E, The Tale of Buck Byron

Buck Byron was a man with a most peculiar plan
to rob a bar in southern Ohio (oh my)
He took his only gun, a Winchester 41
and a stolen copy of Gideon's bible (oh why)
He needed money fast to save his daughter's life,
she had been kidnapped and the ransom wasn't cheap
So he crossed his room, kissed his wife
and left for Marshall McCrea's saloon
He took that 6:37 heading east
He said, "Lord, let her be released"
Well he needed her ransom, nothing more
So Buck Byron burst through that door
And he said:
"Men, put your pistols away 'cause I don't want to kill you today. Empty that drawer and I'll head back out the door. I'm sorry dear Mr. McCrea."
He shot the piano man, the gun went off in his shaky hands
As old Marshall cocked his 20-gauge shotgun (such a big gun, no fun)
So Buck pulled up to his side a young girl of 25
Put a gun to her head and said, "My god, what have I done?" (well you shot one)
He said:
"Men, this is out of hand. I didn't mean to shoot, it's not what I had planned, so please don't make me kill this girl. Can't you understand? My baby needed cash, I thought I'd be a man.
Why'd I take that 6:37 heading east?
Oh Lord, let me be released
I needed her ransom, nothing more
Oh please let me walk back out that door"
And Marshall said:
"Boy, put that rifle away, 'cause I don't want to kill you today. My piano man ain't dead, so take your gun from that girl's head. If you leave, then I'll let you walk away."
As Buck was backing out, he heard an angry shout
And felt the angry bullet that followed (now his bible's hollowed/hallowed)
An old man of 68 said, "You don't touch my daughter Kate!"
Buck tasted frothy blood as he swallowed (now his time is borrowed)
He took his final breath and said:
"Dear God, I surely deserve this death, but who will save my baby girl? When I'm laid to rest, Marshall, please take my good book and send it back out west."
Well, Buck Byron died that day, but they let his daughter get away
What a peculiar price to pay, two daughters for one man slain
So please put your weapons away if you don't want to murder today
Maybe God above, or whatever god you love
Will save you from your judgment day
